    XM/Sirius Still does sound bad, at best it's good for talk radio. Even sounds dead on my stock ford truck! Tried listening through home system what a waste! Maybe a step up from elevator sound!

    I concur on the L,R symmetry if you attempting time alignment to a central listening position driver offset placement should be inverted!

    I absolutely agree with PDR no damping lots of resonance and corner bounce, but I don't want to rain on your parade, not to mention the vibration of the plexiglass.

    I should point out that these are my "half size" prototypes built years ago to test the math of the design, performed so well I went on to the full sized cabinets.

    Well darn returned to its original values, however one sample the FO lowered by 5 Hz this is enough of a change to affect port tuning of the enclosure. the speakers are close to the original protypes For Qts and VAS, however the Free air resonance is higher 30 hz vrs 26 hz of the originals.

    They just sound so tight at first allways seems to take some break in before they sound right. Thought about taking my oscillator to about 15 hz and drive the amp to about 100 watts to speed the process. Any Ideas?

    That's a pretty fancy name on them there speakers. Give them a listen see if they speak to you. Ps Got a VSOP master Cd I bought in Vienna I could send you...

    Led Zepplin Kazmere. Only way it ever sounded decent was running it through the Ol dynamic range expander!

    heres what my cleaning brush looks like. Thanks for the offer Snow, but I just need a good fluid!
  14. Retriever
    My signet cleaner looks just like that, I'm just running out of the cleaning fluid and wondering what's good these days? Not all my LP's were treated with permastat, and I want to find a good fluid to clean.

    Ok I finally ran out of the Ol permastat Lp cleaner what's good these days?

    Not to hijack the thread but I used Winamp does the new version have a FLAC plugin or do you have to purchase it???
  18. Retriever
    There's a program called EAC exact audio copy that's free. It allows the use of an external encoder. I use it with Lame. It can edit files but it uses the wave format. Haven't tried a FLAC encoder yet. It can also remove pops an glitches and even restore lost info using another source as camparisin or borrow from the other channel. Can also record from any source. I'm a FLAC newbie and just getting started too.

    Holy size increase! I haven't shopped capacitors in a while are those polypropylene caps? Voltage rating must be high enough for a tesla coil!
  21. Retriever
    I'm still laughing! I Could have gone for an esoteric discussion on capacitors but NO Mr smart a$$, just had to go there. I can be a royal butthead!
  22. Retriever
    Nice job! But I've been supressing for days, The difference is "a" between capcitor and capacitor. Sorry just had to go there!

    Watchmen

    Retriever replied to RichP714's topic in Movies

    Darn I enjoyed the movie too, I thought this was a preview for Watchmen 2. What effect would a 1.5t have on Dr. Manhattan?

    I use a Denon 886 with full sized Rt600's on the surround, daddyJt is right the only time I have a lot of bass is in the 5/7 chan stereo mode wich is nice. The denon supports both with adjustable eq points so its your choice. Although helicopters are way cool with the full size! My choice was driven by the size of my room and a 22ft high ceiling. The carver equip handles the front LR.

    I spent a enormous amount of tme testing with equalized Mikes and a waveform generator, toroidal current probe, verifying and adjusting my design to get it right, after that it was into off axis response. It's enough to make you go mad!
