Misuderstood your Question Sorry I totally misunderstood what you were asking. Let me try again :) I also updated the article to be more clear on this topic. Listening Window Response, Sound Power and Spinorama by Dr. Floyd Toole The listening window is a combination of 0, +/- 15 vertical...

Dr. Toole read the entire article and redlined it and contributed in many areas. He may not agree with every point I made but overall he liked it. The fact that he still converses with me and ALWAYS offers his editing services at no charge speaks volumes. I prefer to keep brand names out...

I apologize about the evolution thing from many years ago. I didn't even know that BS religious movement of ID until that came up in our threads. What a bastardization of science that is! I'm not sure about the reputation points you earned. I don't police that. I let our mods do it.

You earned that reputation based on the forum community giving it to you. If you don't like it, maybe you need to change your tone in your posts. You bring some valid points in this thread but you're tact is a bit lacking. It's possible you need a little vacation from the forum to cool your...

Please tell me where this is in the article so I can fix it. thanks.

Sean Olive did not publicly comment on this article as far as I am aware. He did give me some feedback initially and I made some changes accordingly. I have immense respect for Dr. Toole and Dr Sean Olive but it doesn't mean I always agree with their research or how Harman decides to trickle...

Agreed. Though blind testing is likely good enough. I'm still waiting for the car industry to suggest you must do blind driving tests to truly determine which car the consumer prefers without the bias of brand or aesthetics ;) I have had countless people come into my theater room to...

you obviously missed many key points in the article, particularly how DBTs are often manipulated or not run as DBT's. You also likely didn't notice that Dr. Floyd Toole was one of the peer reviewers and contributors of points that you criticize, but I'd expect nothing less given your earned...

Excellent feedback guys. Keep it coming. This was a pretty big effort as it was really meant to be a 5-10 min video interview with Hugo and it just blew up. The video is completely separate content from the article since we don't script our videos. Once the camera starts rolling, watch out! LOL.

No. If the measurement is done anechoic or gated, it will remove the room response.

We tested a bunch of Cappuccino makers before settling on Nespresso. We didn't like the taste of the coffees offered by Keurig or Starbucks coffee machines. The Nespresso Pixie machine is a really good deal especially around XMAS time where they offer discounts at William Sonoma and $75 FREE...

Seems like something got hosed with our latest update. Thanks guys for informing us. We are on it! Update: Should be fixed now. Please let us know if any other issues persist. thanks.

Sadly it's still flat for a large portion of our population that rejects science.

Sorry I didn't measure that. I use the PM11S3 as a 2CH reference so next time I bring my AP out to test an amp, I will see if I can measure it and report back to you.

That video is ancient as it was before we started hosting them on Youtube. Sorry about that.

No doubt man. It's a rats nest in there!

How about it? Man Made Climate Change is real as is the science behind. The only deniers are typically big Oil and Fox News.

Tuan 26-30 dB is a normal gain for an amplifer, not a preamp. I did measure the preamp gain and it's in the report here: Marantz PM-11S3 Integrated Amplifier Measurements and Analysis | Audioholics

Front/back mid wall for a rectangular room is a great choice. Now just level match and bass manage your speakers/subs and you should be good to go. welcome to the forum!
