    CEA Harshly Rebukes California Energy Regulations

    Corporations will rarely do something out of the goodness of their hearts, unless it results in more profits for them. Since most consumers aren't aware of environmental issues, the market also won't dictate that corporations clean up their act, and/or make their products conserve power. Your...

    Audioholics Alexa Ranking: We need your help!

    No the only way to see that is if we provide permissions to a user with a Gmail account. We don't give that ability to anyone but advertisers that request it.

    Audioholics Alexa Ranking: We need your help!

    I think Alexa is becoming more and more irrelevant with people using ad blocker and not wanting to clutter their browsers with 3rd party tool bars. Luckily we use Google Analytics which is an industry standard tool for reporting traffic metrics. We fully disclose all of our traffic data, but...

    Audioholics Alexa Ranking: We need your help!

    Our editorial site traffic is actually up from last year. Our forum traffic is down a bit (registration issues I believe) but not enough to explain the downtrend in those tools. We aren't quantified nor do we have page code in for Compete so that may explain why we have a negative trend there...

    Audioholics Alexa Ranking: We need your help!

    Guys; For some reason our Alexa ranking is getting worse (the lower the # the better). I am having a hard time understanding this since our traffic is fine. If you can install the Alexa tool bar on your browser and make Audioholics your homepage it may help us. Advertisers use Alexa as one...

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Loudspeaker System Q&A Interview

    Yep that's intentional since those drivers have a lot more output capability at those frequencies. The woofers on the 8T are crossed over even higher. Stereo bass rocks, not so much below 80hz but from 80hz and up most definitely.

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Loudspeaker System Q&A Interview

    If you had a pair of 8T subs it would be a crime to restrict them without their matching satellite speakers. What you really need to do is sell your 802d's and get a pair of Status 8T speakers ;) The way the sub+satellite system integrates with this system is unparalleled which is why I am...

    Emotiva UPA-500 Five Channel Power Amplifier Review

    That's not a ridiculous question at all. As far as I can tell, both amps have identical power transformers and capacitor banks. The UPA200 has 2 power amp modules while the UPA500 has 5 power amp modules. You can ask Emotiva for more clarity but the way I understand, if you just drive a...

    Infinity Primus P363 Floorstanding Loudspeaker Review

    I doubt the design has radically changed much between the P360 and P363. Stereophile does a sum of close mic'd measurements. This will produce different ( and less accurate results at bass frequencies) compared to my 1 meter outdoor GP measurements below 1kHz and 1/2 meter summed nearfield...

    Emotiva UPA-500 Five Channel Power Amplifier Review

    The Marantz SR6004 isn't a wimpy department store A/V receiver. I was referring to a typical $400-500 A/V receiver. The UPA-500 would be an upgrade to that. I only used the SR6004 as a preamp because it was the least expensive receiver/preamp I had at my disposal when testing the UPA-500...

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Loudspeaker System Q&A Interview

    It's been a long time so I don't remember all the issues other than some of the drivers sounded very one-notey. Yes efficiency and inductance were issues I recall.

    Status Acoustics Titus 8T Loudspeaker System Q&A Interview

    Shane spent years developing and testing the improved bass driver. He is meticulous about having good bass and was very careful in designing the new driver to be as musical as the old one. I was present during some of his preliminary testing when he had a bunch of different high mass drivers...

    Emotiva UPA-500 Five Channel Power Amplifier Review

    If you have a UPA-7 and are happy with it, I'd stick with it. It's still a better amp than the UPA-500. The crosstalk performance on the UPA-7 is still acceptable (50dB @ 20kHz). At least 40dB at 20kHz would be a min requirement and the UPA-7 meets it with 10dB to spare.
