    a suggestion for clint? anyone?

    I experienced this in the past when I tried to run each sub independent in my system as opposed to running a single correction curve for all subs. It's in my article that I referenced in a prior post in this thread.

    a suggestion for clint? anyone?

    I forgot to qualify that I use Audyssey MultEQ Pro in my setup. Mark Sanfilipo did test a Denon receiver with standard Audyssey but I don't see any rolloff caused by it. I suppose anything is possible. Next time I test a receiver with Audyssey I will test for this issue that you/others are...

    a suggestion for clint? anyone?

    Read the various articles I've written about Audyssey and how to calibrate subwoofers. I measure bass with and without Audyssey engaged. If Audyssey is setup wrong then it can limit bass output but if its setup correctly you shouldn't lose any extension at all. See...

    It's always a pleasure to deal with the folks at Aperion. They are some of the nicest people in the industry and I highly recommend purchasing from them!

    New Velodyne Line

    I stopped by Velodyne today but no tech people were around at the time of my visit. The press kit is saved as a PDF image so I can't extract the data. I did my best to provide some coverage as can be seen here: http://www.audioholics.com/reviews/speakers/subwoofers/velodyne-digital-drive-plus/

    Audioholics Ultimate Subwoofer Shootout Planned

    I applaud manufacturers that are engineering small potent subwoofer solutions. It takes a lot of good engineering to make them perform well. But, when they do, they blend into a room decor well and yield excellent performance, especially when using 2 or 4 strategically placed.

    Audioholics Ultimate Subwoofer Shootout Planned

    Paul resides in Downey which is very close to LA. I believe that's about 400 miles or so from Sacramento so unless you're willing to do the drive, I don't think its possible.

    10 Things about Audio Amplifiers You've Always Wanted to Know

    Probably but that's the issue often when I syndicate articles from manufacturers from time to time. I try to keep their product plugging to a minimal but its nice to get different content and perspective into the site whenever possible.

    10 Things about Audio Amplifiers You've Always Wanted to Know

    who is pushing the Axiom Amp? Two of my review samples blew up when I tested them which was noted in the review. Axiom won't even list my review on their website b/c they were so displeased with the results. I am still waiting for them to produce a bulletproof version of this amp b/c I feel...

    10 Things about Audio Amplifiers You've Always Wanted to Know

    Kaiser; You raise some valid points but also realize tweeters typically can't handle a lot of power to begin with so if you present them with a constant clipped signal of day 50% duty cycle or longer (IE. Squarewave), it doesn't take much to fry one. We aren't concerned with increased power...

    Emotiva UPA-7 Seven Channel Power Amplifier Review

    My tower speakers have built in passive subs. That is why I biamped. The actual subs have no xover so they are run full range relying on the natural rolloff of the drivers to act as a LPF. I like bi-amping these speakers b/c I feel you get better control of the bass. Not all speakers will...

    EMP E55ti Speaker Update

    I meant that they don't emphasize bass or treble so yes I agree with you that they are a bit laid back in the top end. You should definitely listen without the grille for highest fidelity. that is quite possible since its a horizontally mounted MTM vs vertical from the towers. Try...

    Denon AVP-A1HDCI / POA-A1HDCI Review Support Thread

    You are the 3rd person I've heard tell me this but I didn't want to say it publicly until I can confirm it. It's sad b/c B&K makes some nice amps. Too bad they never embraced online magazines and an online business model else things could have been much different for them. I remember years...

    Denon AVP-A1HDCI / POA-A1HDCI Review Support Thread

    There is a 6dB diff in input sensitivity but they only specify voltage gain once which we aren't sure if its for balanced or unbalanced. I believe they are following the 6dB convention I mentioned but you could always call them to ask.
