Davao city is better but still quite poluted. HEPA filter wount work unless your house is very airthigt with controlled air vents with a filter and you maintain a higher airpressure inside that room The filter will need frequent washing or replacemet. The diesel fumes (and I am convinced it is)...

Is more likely the air polution so I'd start there - which means you IMO can't do much other than frequent washing until you change ro conventional speakers. Manila is more like a all year round smog and no mater what you do it's getting in. It can be reduced if you get a real air conditioner...

I traded in my Aions i earlyer this year (18y old). The shop is now selling them for 20% of the original price or 15% of the ESL X.

If you live in Manila or any other major city there you have loads of slimy/sticky diesel exhaust from in particluaty jeepnes, busses and trucks. Even though I had my widows closed 24/7 the fan needed cleaning virtually daily when i lived in Makati. Maybe the washing will help in such case. I'd...

Now it works - seems like. Same with other browsers but other treads worked ...

Since post #89 i seem not to get access. Just a message "we ran into some problems " Followed by "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action" But i still se the messages inth push mails. Whyis this

As far as I know Dirac only helps on frequency response and well a lot of other stuff. But placement of speakers is I think quite essential to get right. If this process really results in a world of difference I don't know. But worth to check it out just to see if it does. Edit: the new ART...

I agree about the impedance dip being too much in focus like I feel that a lot of folks look at theoretical things not real-world concerns - the impedance dip is at high frequencies, therefore not drawing nearly as much power for normal material so in general not an issue for an amp or AVR of...

Yes, a lot is guessing work - the low frequencies are all straight forward and an opera singer (not the most common in films at least the ones I watch) may go beyond the span I mentioned. Regardless that, the cross-over is in that range, which must be an issue that somehow is addressed fairly...

I thought an EL panel was superior to a tweeter and since dialogue is ranging from say 100 - 1000 Hz this would be handled by the woofer and ES panel, not the tweeter. Is the reason for a tweeter then linked to vertical dispersion is varying with frequenscy and given the limited height of a...

Comig to think about it. Why the ML center ELS have tweeters. Also pusseled about rhe relatively small panel size yet price point is high - ELS 18 about same as ESL 11 (per piece) yet no active bass unit nor ARC correction

There is a world of diff from the EM ESL to the ESL X - From the ESL X to 9a diff becomes minor, in fact i wouldn't be able to say which is which unless perhaps in an A/B test. The panels are 10% different in size and the base same but paper versus alu cones. Adding a sub will minimise the...

Let me put it this way, if i didnt know which was playing i wouldn't notice. And with the sub engaged from 80hz below the added stifness by the alu is possible not adding any benefit. In any case I'd say the EXL X in the bass is better than the Aion i, feturing the alu cone, was. And overall by...

The Vantage was my dream, but the budget only allowed Aion i. I'd think the EXL X is the replacement of that whilst the 11a must be the closest to the Vantage. However, the ELS X sounds a step up to the Aion i in my ears. I was aiming at the ELS 9 but a combination of price/design/sound made my...

You're right it's closer to 50% than 60% - my mistake. But I would think the cost is not linear (due to complexity/development cost/# sold units). Anyway, these are the prices. For the 4" I was referring to the edge of the speaker not to the stat panel. Some magic surely - that's why I'd like to...

I meant relative to the C34 - C18 seems like 60% of the cost, but everything on the C34 is double up and more (4 woofers, 2 folded motions, 2x ESP area, built-in amp with ARC and a much larger and elaborate cabinet). I just noted that you can actually see the ESL through the cosmetic micro...

That'll possible be a long wait - guess it's the 34a you refer to :). I wonder why the C18 is so relatively expensive given the much smaller panel and no built-in amplifier.

Sound like that might be an option then. Good luck once you get to that stage

Could a configuration with a center on top and another below the screen not result in issues with varying spl the in vertical plane - just thinking of how it will about interference (try to se ripple tank for such effects). The ESP panel is located between the two woofers just like the...

I'd try to put some preferably diffucion of what you might have which can serve that purpose and see if you find an improvement. In general the human braln will filter out reflections when the delay is >5ms. That would translate to 3' sp I'd start there, then move the LS +/- a feet at the time...
