  1. Your room determines everything. Compromising a 7chn setup will sound worse than a 5 and potentially even worse than 2.
  2. Amusingly the sales person we had in doing the training is going to Puerto Rico on her way home to measure on frogs. Not that application though. They've done that on elephants though, the frogs is a find them in a tree application. Frogs are also interesting since their ear drum is on the outside of the animal. Allows us to measure hearing response without killing them like we have to with other animals. Sort of hard to measure what is happening in the inner ear without access to it... I was also thinking about how to using it to locate the toads as well. We studied Folwer's Toads on the east coast of VA (specifically, Assateague Island and Walops Island right next to NASA). They only called at night in the swamps so finding them is pretty tough. I wonder how it would handle low light situations. IR camera
  3. Others beat me to it Steve, but nice

  5. Exactly.
  6. Something scalable always wins IMO. Start with the best two speakers you can afford and run them.
  7. Cool company, great boss (lol), and good benefits. Really just looking to buy a bunch of FE contacts as they are our customer target. What we can do experimentatlly is going to rock the world and definitely be on tv probably in the not so distant future.
  8. Need someone with FEA software sales experience. Focus on NVH and experimental correlation. Job is in Detroit.<br /><br />Also, getting my Acoustic Camera. May just use it to setup the stereo in the Cayenne as it can show exactly where what reflection comes from and at what time. Yeah baby.
  9. Going to China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia in 2 weeks. Yuck
  10. At DTW STILL. Fucking late planes.

    Large PoopFixored. In reality that isn't the case, but the price/performance is so ridiculously funny it makes me laugh like hell. Of course so does picking a brand. Picking what best fits your needs is golden, anything else a compromise. Even funnier to me that a single brand request is hiding somewhere in a "measure power" thread. Really not useful when you have to basically double power to hear a difference.
  12. I already have
  13. ///M5 replied to grumby13's topic in General Audio
    Making ANY power test even more useless. I don't see the point in comparing amps period, but it is even more absurd if you have already chosen a brand.
  14. And I've seen people use nunchuks for chopsticks. Doesn't mean it makes them good at being chopsticks. Pretty obvious from your other posts to that your sources of information are seriously flawed and misleading.
  15. Good luck though. You can't be the only one this has happened too.
  16. Hell a 9 year old from MN made it to Vegas free, you should be able to get home.
  17. I wish I was in a position to throw away money.

    Completely pointless test. If you believe any clamp test it is NO DIFFERENT than believing that the Boss amp truly makes 2k watts. Just as uneducated. It isn't even a relative comparison if the same person does the test. Seriously completely useless. I'll give you a hint. ANY test that does not list the uncertainty is not a test. Go ahead and try to calculate the uncertainty once and understand the factors leading up to it and you will never, ever think a clamp test is a logical way of doing anything.
  19. Electric only this year. Other than one time for an interview. But it doesn't leave me smooth unless I really rub it in. And then of course I'm causing irritation. I'd never try to get smooth with an electric. Hell in 2 hours it won't be anyways so why bother. Only smooth route is to lather 3x. Shave down twice and up once. This is true, but I can get as smooth as once over with a cartridge. Maybe even closer.Seriously? If you mean by pushing and going over and over sure, but then ou are just stripping off all sorts of skin
  20. The Illimunator is way nicer than the Vifa. I don't know about the SB, but am doubtful it'll compete.
  21. You won't get a healthy 1k out of them, but they are nice and do dig. Start at 1500/24 and carefully step down Why do you say 1k is not healthy? Asking so I can gauge out other tweeters There's also the larger version, this: http://www.madisoundspeakerstore.com/scanspeak-soft-dome-tweeters/scanspeak-illuminator-d3004/6020-00-tweeter-textile-dome/ 7mm larger flange diameter it's not a big issue. The meaning of the sentence changes when you move healthy to the other side. Just an adjective describing the 1k. At reference levels they won't take it.

  23. If you get agitated you sholdn't switch between them. It takes a good 10 shaves with an electric to get your face accustomed to it. After that it should be more gentle on you.
  24. I have to come from about 6 directions on my neck with an electric unless I am SUPER diligent. Whenever I go more than 3 days I have to use a blade or I go nuts.
