So far my observation is only done for a single sweet spot.

Probably I over reacted because I am tired of claims about correct way and what’s right because that’s what I learned from “here” and “there”. I learned comb filtering is bad but in reality I actually like the effect in my room from a small portion of untreated. posted the observation in the...

Just watched Audioholic video on this point and he did talk about putting them at the back at lower level to add filling in which reminds me of car stereo system with 4 speakers. The rears even just playing the stereo they are used to fill in adding weight to the music. I am not trying to...

No need to be so condescending. I can safely say I know stereo better and know how to produce a better stereo than most. My interest is 3D audio and have a system for anyone to walk in and discover what 3D audio is. I am just asking about a simple question of subjective preference and liking...

To all above, are you guys using full range speakers for the surround? Brightness can be adjusted in the setting so it’s a none issue. Perhaps, I will make a binaural recordings of the different setting to see if the can identify the preferred settings.

Hi guys, I have a modest 7.1 Marantz AVR setup. It is not Dolby ATMOS and I do not use height channels. The 7 speakers are arranged as recommended. It was calibrated using the Audyssey calibration. Lately, I am experiencing the different setting in the Marantz AVR and it looks like the “Music”...

I would like to comment about the part why the Polk need to be placed closely than the conventional stereo placements. To have good attenuation of the signal reaching the opposite ear, you should able to cancel the signal by inverting the original signal and feeding it to the other speakers...

I hope this video is saved since it is unlisted not many going to know about it.

I am sure this should already be here but I can’t find the thread. Anyway....

I have been using crosstalk cancellation for more than 10 years and never heard anything that you are describing. I am not sure how the IACXT is employed by Polk and my guess is it is a one shot cancellation. It is possible that the smearing can happen with one shot cancellation but not as...

Except for the speakers. Rest are Crown XLS, Motu24Ao and Mogami cable. The tonal accuracy is close to the original Youtube audio of the same track. Alison Krauss- It wouldn’t have made a difference.

No I won’t. I only pity for audiophiles who tried that and realized it cannot sound good due to crosstalk. It is funny that there are thousands if not millions of Youtube songs which sounds quite good and I am like millions others can enjoy them. I am not expecting someone to compare youtube...

I tried crosstalk cancellation with cheap speakers like SHARP and they sounded good too. All recordings were made with Sennheiser AMBEO headset microphones. Please use headphones to listen to hear the sweet spot perspective heard in-situ This is with the Sharp speakers. I will make one more...

My early attempts for 60 degrees crosstalk cancellation.

Probably you clicked a wrong link. No one played the video last 60 minutes. Anyway, don’t bother. It will sound crap to you.

After 3 years with different XTC, I finally found that Reaper DAW and Motu24Ao gave me the best option. The sound is comparable to other high end which costs more than 10 to 20 times. Here is a video where the audio was recorded using a binaural microphone. All the system playback was recorded...

And this is based om your limited exposures? Now science is a cult to you. And we wonder why audio never progressed.

Description Psychoacoustics is the scientific study of sound perception and audiology – how humans perceive various sounds. More specifically, it is the branch of science studying the psychological and physiological responses associated with sound. It can be further categorized as a branch of...

I clearly mentioned the role of multi channel for music. I know how multi channel works. I run with over 22 speakers with over 78 channels just to reproduce a standard 2.0 stereo with realistic concert hall realism. I am well versed with human hearing and psychoacoustics to know what I am...

I was referring to the resonance extending to the right or left side as left and right speakers of stereo. Unless you are referring to large piano placed infront of you forming a 60 degrees stage. All sound disperse 360 degrees. What matters to our hearing is the direct sound that arrives to...
