    Eversolo DMP A6 or A8 ?

    Qobuz is the right answer, if you choose between Tidal and Spotify. :) But lately I got completely sucked into Dolby Atmos music, so Apple music is my latest go to streaming service. BTW - I think best algorithm for music recommendations is on Spotify. I usually listen to it in the car, then...

    Media room plan advice

    A) Fronts: i would second to go for same tweeter size for all the L-C-R B) Surrounds - in 7.x.x. setup your Surr and SurrBacks should have the same capabilities, if you want to have this "bubble of sound" feeling and should be comfortable playing to 80Hz - which means, that you should look for...

    Recent review of 15a's

    Actually, the whole idea behind 2 opposite woofers in Masterpiece series is about blending of the radiating patterns between the panel and the sub. ML calls it “powered force forward” but the setup is smth like this https://www.sweetwater.com/insync/cardioid-subwoofer-need-one/

    Building Custom Home Theater

    My "insider" info from Trinnov - it will come also for non-perfect setups, albeit bit later [1-2 years] and Harman setup will be supported - although with trade-off of the smaller area for control [perfect MLP but higher seat-to-seat variance] Also - if you get your theatre calibrated by JBL...

    Building Custom Home Theater

    I would utilize the opportunity of having the chance to start from the scratch and setup my HT to be able to accommodate the latest and greatest in DRC - either Trinnov WaveForming (which requires a lot of subs and Trinnov) or Dirac ART (which requires full range speakers also in surround)...

    Do I really need to upgrade my centre channel with a ESL C18

    I have been doing my “research” on internet across the forums etc - general consensus is “ dont do it” - in respect of dual centers. And in most,of the cases I woudl agree - lobing, amp strain etc. All valid points, considering usual setups, where in the most of the cases the correct answer is...

    Do I really need to upgrade my centre channel with a ESL C18

    Agree. They require some attention with placememt and one must show them some respect with the proper amplifier. I am actually thinking of buying another one - and have 2 centers, one above and one below the screen ….

    Expression 13A, Source, Motion series Atmos tops and sides

    Re-posting the picture without grilles - you see, I needed to have drivers placed asymmetricaly to be as near to this magical 1/4 - 3/4 grid and not interfere with Fronts placement. So all calculated in advance. It was about centimeters to fit it in. In my discussions with the guys producing...

    Front Subs - 120in screen, 45cm [1.5ft] from the floor. It looks tiny, but it offers more than THX viewing angle from 3.8m viewing distance

    Expression 13A, Source, Motion series Atmos tops and sides

    Yes, all 8 subs are set-up as one virtual sub and everything is crossed over at 80Hz, incl 15A's. Height layer [motion 15] is crossed over at 100Hz. 18 vs 21 in - it was very much cost/benefit and space constraints. I would need min 200L internal volume for 21in, and it woudl drive size of the...

    Expression 13A, Source, Motion series Atmos tops and sides

    First things first - this is my bed plane at "raw" state - after phase delay and SPL adjustents - no fancy target curves or whatever applied. Interesting thing - both L-R speakers needed to be inverted in order to get proper alignment with sub array almost perfect L-R RT60 symmetry and...

    Resonance (distortion) in ESL 13a

    It was performed by ML dealer at my place and he was not surprised, when he heard about it. If I remember correctly - it was enough to remove the grille, then this MDF part (is similar on front) and wires hidden in gray jacket were accessible. But it was a while ago, so I may be missing some...

    Resonance (distortion) in ESL 13a

    Had the same issue at around 220 Hz. It was loose internal cabling to front woofer. Best way to check is slow sine sweep in REW.

    So after calibrator finished his work - need to say just WOW I have seen lot of good measuring and sounding stuff but never heard such punch and clarity in bass section. Group delay never going above 20ms ..... Spectrgram of ML15as with subs crossed at 80Hz
