  1. System Setup and Connection
    I have Sony SS TSF500 (3 ohm) speaker and Onkyo TX-SR444 connected, the problem is there is not much audio volume coming from the speaker.

  4. Home Audio Acoustics
    Hi We are constructing an editing room that may need to do some audio premixing etc. Its not a very high end audio setup - that may come later - but its fairly good electronically. However I'm pretty beginner when it comes to acoustics, even though I learned a bit in my University. Room is...

    Hi guys, Somewhat dazed and confused at the moment after battling with REW. More specifically this relates to "check levels". All right I have gone down the path of wanting to 3 way active on a pair of Tympani 1D speakers. Yes I know these were traditionally a 2 way speaker but the addition...

  7. Home Audio Subwoofers
    I picked up a cheap old Mirage sub on craigslist for $40 until I have time to build my own, but I don't know how to hook it up to my system. I have a subwoofer cable running to my living room and no way to run any other cables since they are all about 50' runs from another room where my...
  8. Two Channel Design and Installation
    Hi everyone, I have been lurking on the forum for awhile now. I am glad to see this new area of the forum. I don't really have much to contribute to most of the threads, but thought I would share my low budget stereo build. My listening room does double duty as a home gym. It is a very small...

    A major problem in all my DIY work is the waiting for parts & items from overseas due to delays in freighting, availability or simple only through the unavailability of things here in NZ as well as of course everything cost down here so much more or just getting it here to NZ can get difficult...

    Beringer DCX 2496. How to sum channels A and B low frequencies to sub woofer? When using a single subwoofer as I am, isn't it better to have both the left-hand and right-hand low frequencies going to the single subwoofer? Please correct me if I am wrong. At the moment only the right hand...

  12. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    This is a subject that confuses the out of me. As I understand it, a high-pass filter attenuates signals below a certain frequency (ie, it cuts the bass) while a low pass filter attenuates frequencies higher than a given value (cuts the mid/treble). It is further my understanding that a...

    Hey, how are you all? I have a dual 15 inch PA speaker. It sounds great and the bass is great too. But I was thinking that it will be even better if I add a Low Pass Crossover to one of the woofer. This crossover support like 200 RMS. Can I buy two of these and wire them toguether? Or how...

    Vizio was born a price competitor. Yes, the company has slowly ventured into higher-end waters over the last several years, but its name will forever remain linked to value and savings. Recently, it announced a new series of televisions that takes the notion of savings to an entirely new...
  15. System Setup and Connection
    The funnest discoveries are the surprises. Like setting up a pair of speakers and accidentally getting a monster soundstage. Like discovering that the openness of a soundstage can be affected by a system noise floor level that you can not even hear when no music is playing. The latter example...

    Hi. When I use the equalizer function to suggest filter settings for my digital signal processor, the very low bass under 50 hz is always ignored, even when it should have a raise in amplitude to match the target curve (file attached). Why doesn't it get matched to target curve like the rest of...

    The volume is so low that you can barely hear it. The volume is all the way up. Is there something in the set up I am not getting?
  20. REW Forum
    I posted below over on AVS Forum in the MiniDSP section in regards to sub woofer delay settings. Goal is clean accurate bass. I am wondering if achieving a super flat SPL could in some way require delaying the timing such that is screws up the transient response. Or does avoiding nulls actually...
