There is quite a substantial difference not just in output capabilities, but in dynamics and realism when you compare budget designs to cost no object products that are properly engineered. $1k/pr doesn't get you close to the law of diminishing returns.

You have to be very careful with using multiple tweeters to avoid acoustical interference issues. I agree with you the EMP's could use a tad more energy in the top end. This can be accomplished by using a tweeter with higher sensitivity and power handling. That is a much better approach than...

Hey guys, can you try to submit this article to Slashdot.org? I think its newsworthy for that site. Thanks.

A WTW design when properly executed is still a viable design and in some aspects has advantages over W(T/M)W designs. An MTM has significantly less off-axis lobing errors than a TWWWT design which isn't used by any other commercial manufacturer that I am aware of other than Axiom. However if...

This is a good reference for you when shopping between ID speaker brands. As you will find, some of the less expensive options on the list actually wind up being the most pricey when you factor in premium finish and parts upgrades. There are many great brands out there and some even offer FREE...

For those who don't follow the audio show circuit, Capital Audiofest is the Washington D.C. area's annual event. More than 40 separate displays and demos were setup for guests to browse through. The products featured ran the gambit from massive fully horn loaded loudspeakers to diminutive...

There are a lot of caveats to that. Have you ever heard of a consumer actually collecting on such a warranty? I haven't personally and I know many people whose equipment that was attached to a similar surge protector with warranty was fried and not covered.

Hey John, how you been? I saw your post and wanted to see what all the fuss was about on this thread. Haven't read the whole thread yet but wanted to point out that Audioholics.com is NOT responsible for opinions/comments fellow forum members make on this site. You can read our FAQ and legal...

The database for the new site was copied 2 weeks ago. So any articles newer than that wont redirect since they don't yet exist on the new site. That will all change the moment we flip the switch which I am hoping will be by this weekend. thx.

Guys, If you can test at least 1 article in every folder, it would be of great help. Perhaps each of you can take a section. IE. Product Reviews, AV Research, etc thanks.

Cant use www for developmental site b/c DNS is assigned to the old site.

Thanks you're correct and an oversight on my part when working on this stuff at 2am in the morning. :)

Friends, we are days away from flipping the switch to a completely new site folder layout to improve SEO. I need volunteers to test out our 301 redirects. You can take any article URL on the existing site and replace the "audioholics.com" with "audio.monkeytronics.com" and see if it properly...

Hey Pat. It was a classic and needed to be dusted off the shelf and brought back to the limelight. Glad to see you still lurking here and miss your contributions to the site. Hope you are well my old friend.

I love it when we have fellow Looney Tunes fans posting on this forum. As Bugs Bunny used to say "one's man's meat is another mans poison". This is a very appropriate comment relating to loudspeakers and people's preferences. This article should help you narrow down your choices. Note that...

That's fine if you can wait but we have 1 million monthly readers that enjoy reading our reviews now even if they don't all have measurements. To quote the wise Spock "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few...or in this case, the one."

Not sure the wife would approve but I can handle an occasional visitor if they bring some good booze :)

The show we had planned for this year was at a very upscale location and many of the sponsors weren't ready to commit in time making it a financially risky proposition for us so we decided to cancel for this year. We will be doing another show next year at a more economical place and look...

Great post! That is exactly what I am doing in my theater room. I run the Status 8Ts fullrange with no DSP or bass management. My processor is set to "no sub" so all of the summed bass + LFE goes to the front speakers. I then use the L/R preamp outs to connect to my Velodyne DD-15+ subs. I...
