    Audioholics Amplifier Measurement Testing Methodology

    I'd like to see their test conditions (IE. Line Voltage / Current), how they are running the sweep, if they are really running 4 ohm loads for all channels simultaneously, etc. NAD is sending me one of their receivers to review early next year so trust me I will be testing it ACD to their...

    Audioholics Amplifier Measurement Testing Methodology

    They may be doing that for up to two channels but I can assure you, them like everyone else that claims ACD are doing 1kHz Psweeps like I stated in my article.

    Audioholics Amplifier Measurement Testing Methodology

    I did NOT exclude the ACD test. We do this test. I just question its relevancy in real world. Also this is really an instantaneous 1kHz Power Sweep vs distortion, not a full bandwidth continuous power test like some magazines and manufacturers would have you believe it is. I would like to...

    EMP E55Ti Speaker Placement Suggestions

    A lot of speakers at this price tend to exhibit recessed midrange as most focus on boom and sizzle. The EMPs however have a very open and forward midrange with a slightly laid back top end. They also don't offer much usable bass extension below 50Hz as they sacrifice extension for output. You...

    Leasing a car????

    Just don't take a lease that exceeds the tire life of the car. I did that with an 05TL and got hit for $250/pop for all 4 new tires. BMW I believe covers all of this but you also have a highly monthly payment. I am done with leasing. I wait and buy a relatively new car with 10k miles or...

    I honestly didn't sift through this whole thread but it would be nice if someone can take each product that was at the show and create a dedicated thread on the loudspeaker forum with a page title that matches the product (IE. Usher S-520 Bookshelf Speaker Review) and post pics and the review of...

    Bass Problems!!!

    sounds like you don't have the delay set right between your subs and satellite speakers or your dealing with a room node in which case you may have to reposition your seating and/or subs. I suggest trying some of the methods I wrote about in the following article: Multiple Subwoofers Setup &...
