I sent this article to Ascend and others on the list to peer and David never mentioned the 45 day multi discount deal. Is there a policy on their site about this? If this can be confirmed, we will of course update the article accordingly. thanks.

interesting. I missed that but will inquiry. thanks.

low resistance is the dominant important factor in loudspeaker cables but audibility between different cables, even if measured, isn't guaranteed. Only poorly designed cables are sonically distinguishable (ie. comparing 10AWG to 28 AWG cables, mostly due to resistive losses, or deliberately...

Damping Factor Damping Factor: Effects On System Response — Reviews and News from Audioholics

The article has the appearance it was written by a high school physics student. It takes a very simplistic approach to declaring audibility based on an oversimplified calculated difference in cable resistance. That being said, cable resistance is the single most important metric in loudspeaker...

Agreed. I don't want to lose that intimate feeling the show had. Next year our goal is to have between 8-10 demo rooms and double the attendance across 2 days.

Yep that camera is superior to the one in my iPhone4. Bad iPhone bad! :)

some idiot on youtube actually bashed the review thinking it was a legitimate evaluation. I love that!

The amps that fell apart from my testing were the Pioneer ICE modules. The Axiom A1400 did poorly when driving the new Status speakers, especially in the bass region which was surprising b/c I like how to drove the bass in my older reference speakers. I agree however that Class D has the...

It's difficult to ABX amplifiers but with Jim Salk's switch box, its very possible. I am going to try to get one for that very purpose and possibly have a few listeners over if and when this happens. No need to make it a DBT since the user won't know which amp they are listening to.

Hugh; It was awesome meeting you and Tim as well. Two things we take very seriously around here are: audio and food :) Glad you liked the place. Been going there since it opened over a decade ago. Safe travels to Tim and looking forward to working with you guys going forward.

Where are the attendee pics? Guys, where are your show pics? We hired a photographer so we will be posting our coverage with plenty of images shortly. Clint and Andrew also did some video coverage. Stay tuned...

Darn it, I get that a lot from people. I should have cracked open that bottle of Red itschris brought for me to try out to lighten up a bit :D Unfortunately we can't control the weather but my wife and I were actually thinking about doing the event at a beach location next year towards the...

That is a gross oversimplification of a very complex system. The interaction between the amplifier and loudspeaker isn't that simple. I have heard first hand on how badly high powered Class D amps could sound with low impedance, very resolving speakers. It's not just a function of power. I...

Sorry it was a surprise birthday party for me with family and the sponsors of our event. Tomorrow is the show for everyone and lunch for registered attendees. Thanks for helping the manufacturers set up.

Just getting set up today. Only active demos will likely be HSU and maybe others later in the day if they are ready. Tomorrow is the actual full day of demos.

You can say I employed a little Stephen Colbert humor before he ever did. Stephen you owe me :)

Cool, my brother just finished an interview with Jon Anderson which should post at the beginning of November. He is getting back with Yes and Trevor Rabin to make a new album. I'm looking forward as I wasn't too keen on their replacement singer during the last tour.
