I have seen a few pics online (of the real SIG divers not the factory buyouts) where it looks a little like that. In those cases it is hard to tell if it is better or worse in person and the poster wasn't bringing it up.
I did the math after the posts above. My Hybrid Highlander saves me about $1,000 a year in gas compared to the 100% gas engine, assuming 12k miles a year and $4 a gallon gas. The hybrid costs about $6k more new. I hope to have it for 10 to 15 year…

You have clearly misread my post. I know what you were getting at, and I know you know "a thing or two". I just wasn't sure if it was a rhetorical question. In fact, that is why I mentioned off-axis and power response, because I kn…

I'm not sure your friend really wants to know, but...
The basis for the math of the Predicted In-Room Response is on pages 53-55 of the ANSI-CTA-2034-A document posted HERE. Basically like Sound Power calculations, but taking certain horizo…
For those users of VituixCAD, Kimmo (the software's author) posted an article discussing interpretations of Spinorama and some different slope targets of Listening Window, Predicted In-room response, and Power Response. Because he doesn't show this …

Hey Brad,
Going way back to your Sherwin Williams Gallery Series post...
For kitchen cabinets, would you use 1 coat primer, 2 coats paint (lightly sanded between coats)? Primer is tinted and paint is a dark green.
Yeah, I have some stuff in my Madisound cart waiting for Black Friday. I forgot that they don't just give an across the board discount like PE. Sale or no sale I'm getting some Markaudio CHP-90s for my 2025 InDIYana build.
There are a LOT of driver's on sale at pretty deep discounts right now. With another 15% off, most are the cheapest I've ever seen them by far.

To be fair, it's not VituixCAD's dogma, VituixCAD is just a tool to pursue the findings of Toole, Harmon, Olive, etc. and take advantage of the information in spinorama measurements.
I could barely use PCD and decided to learn VituixCAD. If I can l…

The link that Bill (4thtry) posted is a good thread and helped me build a similar jig. BUT...note you don't need the jig. It helps if you want to have an impedance jig rather than DATS and want an easy way to add a cap in series to protect t…
So the reasons why those of us who use VituixCAD (with a 2 channel measurement setup) love it...
* With dual channel measurement you don't need to extract minimum phase. You have accurate phase information in the data.
* No calculations of z-offset…
I have done the process to figure out the z-offset of the midrange in VituixCAD. I didn't need it for crossover work, rather I wanted to know how deep to make a 3D printed waveguide to have the T and M aligned. I did finally get it but the first few…

^ I personally don't mind headphones, but I get this.
I had those AudioTechnica ones and gave them to my son, probably going on 10 years ago. I'm pretty sure he broke them within a year (he was 14 at the time).
My best headphones are these…
Clamp Rack! Not my idea, pretty much followed THIS.

The speaker cabinets have been sitting there since 2023. They are for a MLTL Paul K. designed for me in 2020 (!) and I was trying to get done by InDIYana 2023, before I decid…

Yeah, at my Menards there is a stack of shelves marked with one thickness, I think 3/4". But they are 1/2", 5/8" and 3/4". I think the last time I got a 5/8" off the top and had to dig down 20 shelves to find the nex…

Have you had a chance to measure distortion and/or listen to them? There was a review on the PE product page where someone wasn't happy with the response, but I don't trust reviews at PE at all. I was about to pull the trigger on these last …
Steve, Have you ever seen the Klippel Listening Test that A/B tests audibility of distortion? You can use test tones or music (although you can't select your OWN music).
