    EQ/Crossover response curve graphing software

    Easy to draw by hand, would take only a few minutes in Excel, and of course it is already built in to WinISD (as long as you pick a driver that is flat where you put the filter.

    Your room determines everything. Compromising a 7chn setup will sound worse than a 5 and potentially even worse than 2.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.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

    Something scalable always wins IMO. Start with the best two speakers you can afford and run them.

    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.

    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.

    clamp test

    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.

    clamp test

    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.
  16. 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.

    Good luck though. You can't be the only one this has happened too.

    clamp test

    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.

    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

    The Illimunator is way nicer than the Vifa. I don't know about the SB, but am doubtful it'll compete.

    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.
