Cable impedance really isn't that complicated. The basic equation Zo = (L/C)^1/2 allows one to calculate the characteristic impedance. At audio frequencies this is a moot point and only starts coming into play about 1/10 the wavelength. So take 1/10 (C/f) where C = 3x10^8 m/s (speed of light)...

We would like to know what types of article and content you the reader enjoy most and why. Thanks.

There was a time, not so long ago, when television hookups were pretty simple. That all changed with the advent of a series of technologies: cable television; the VCR; the S-VHS VCR; the LaserDisk and DVD players; the satellite receiver; the PVR; the Home Theater PC; and High-Definition TV...

Article coming tomorrow :)

DM; Thanks for clarifying BMX's question and BMX I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. With Clint gone, I am busting my butt to keep the frontpage fresh among other things ;) I believe DM is correct. You assign which speakers you are using in Bass Management/Setup screens so it...

Hi John; I recommend checking out this article which I believe was originally authored by Belden. Characteristic Impedance of Cables

Haha sorry. I forgot to hide that post till today when it went live ;) Here is the Review Link.

Olevia LT30HV 30" LCD TV Review.

Richard; Using a rough approximation of sqrt(L/C) (not entirely accurate at audio frequencies, but close enough), even the best cables we measured come out at about 50 ohms. In order to make a cable match 8 ohms or less requires a compromise, usually resulting in ultra high capacitance which...

DVD and High Definition Comparison From Ken Stein: Last night the WB network premiered “The Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring” theatrical version in High Definition. I took the opportunity to compare this High Definition broadcast to the DVD extended version. It is important...

Jim; The RX-V2400 and RX-V2500 will NOT run all 9 Channels at the same time, even with an external amp. We noted this in both reviews and even have an FAQ about it.

I would have listed B&K, Mcintosh, etc but I could not figure out how to get more than 10 poll options. Since Clint is out of town, we are stuck :eek:

Joe Cornwall of Impact Acoustics is back with another round of CD reviews. This time he takes a tour of some classics from no other than the King of Rock – Elvis as well as Rock legend Scotty Moore. Compared to my collection of originals and reissues, this LP offers outstanding playing...
