  1. What is the sensitivity rating on the RF3 II? The Harmon/Kardon HK-430 from the seventies only puts out around 25watts and gets plenty loud on a pair of Heresies. I believe the Heresies are rated at 96dB 1w 1m. Peace, Josh
  2. LOL. My heresies came off of ebay and they were both in the SAME box with an ocean of packing peanuts. The heresies were just sort of floating around, awash in the peanuts as it were with a piece of cardboard between them. This was one big clumsy box. Hope you find something that works. Peace, Josh
  3. Thanks John, I worked on this one while I was on break between classes this afternoon. It took me a while but I finally came up with 273.78 watts. I had been forgetting that I needed to know I before I could figure the P. btw, these figures were from a pdf for the JBL 2025H 12" woofer. Peace, Josh
  4. I was just wondering if someone could let me know the formula for figuring wattage if the impedence and voltage are known. For instance a speaker is rated at an impedence of 8 ohms and its power handling is given as 46.8 volts. What would the Power handling translate to in watts?? If anyone of you electical engineer types happens to know how to do this that would be great. I thought I had a book lying around that covered this type of stuff but I don't seem to have the book with me Peace, Josh
  5. I use Rich text. The only thing I don't like about rich text mode is that my delete key doesn't work. Other than that it it has it's obvious benefits. Peace, Josh
  6. I don't think there is anything really cool about pornography. Peace, Josh
  7. "It's not a motorcycle baby, it's a chopper" Peace, Josh
  8. DJK posted the following a while back. ----------------------------------- A K33 is flat(in room)to 18.6hz in this design: Sealed rear chamber=9.2cu ft, vented front chamber=2.5cu ft, vent=8" dia by 14.75" long, F3(anechoic)=25hz~100hz, SPL=95dB, suggested dimensions (all inside measurements) :45"H X 16.5"W X 28.5"D This is the height and depth of a typical big screen TV and because of the narrow width does not look too bad. ----------------------------------- Peace, Josh
  9. At least its the passive radiator on the back. Still, what a bummer. I hope you can get it fixed. Peace, Josh

While the final version is much better than the test, I would prefer the speaker go to around 50hz before the -3db (this would closely match the Heresy). I am probably constrained by my dedication to the size of the box and have to live with the compromise - there is only so much you can expect from 6.5 inch woofers. ---------------- A congratulations on the speaker turning out so well. As far as I can tell with my spl meter and a test tone cd my 1981 heresies are fine to about 65Hz but by 60Hz they are beginning to roll off. I'm not sure if this is the -3dB point or not but I can tell they are not as solid under 60Hz. My little JBL L46 however go much closer to 45Hz, they just don't have the midrange and tweet that the klipsh do. Peace, Josh
  11. On my yamaha reciever I hit 110 dB on episode 2 with no subwoofer. The yammy was set at -24. Sheesh, that was plenty loud enough for me. btw, when I saw The Two Towers on opening night I took my spl meter with me and the level topped out(in the front row lined up with the sub) at about 97 dB. This was in the large DTS THX theater at downtown Disney. The film itself however was in DTS but was not mastered using the THX standards. Peace, Josh
  12. Very nice. I think it's cool not so much that you are listening to klipsch again so much as as that you have yet again upped your sound quality. I find nothing wrong with the use of sansewage(oops, slip of the tungue) as your main speakers. Peace, Josh
  13. My dad sent me the link, it seems somebody posted it on cubase.net recently. What can I say, We love the m00n Peace, Josh
  14. http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song/ Enjoy Peace, Josh

  17. That's too bad btw, you mispelled excrement Try not to let it get to you, they will see that as anger building inside of you and we don't want that now do we Peace, Josh
  18. PS2 That is what I have to say about all this X-BOX nonsense I do think HALO is a great game btw, just not as good as tribes(on pc). Peace, Josh
  19. Way to go on the house. That's quite an investment. I think m00n is right, the HT will come. Just be patient Peace, Josh
  20. I'm not sure where to find those type of plugs in particular. It seems a lot of older NAD integrateds I see in the pawn shops are always missing them. I'm pretty sure a regular rca patchcord would work, although this would be a bit longer than what you need. Peace, Josh
  21. A friend of a friend got the same set for $0.40 That sounds like some nice Jazz. *edit* I might have made a typo *edit* Peace, Josh
  22. jt1stcav, Those are some nice pics. It's too bad you had to sell some of your gear, hopefully you will be able to look back at this as merely a bump in the road on the waty to the top. I would hate to have to sell off my stereo equipment, but I have to admit even the klipsch would go long before my Taylor acoustic guitar. btw, I like the new avatar Peace, Josh
  23. I don't think I have any mono records, but I do have a mono seeting on my receiver and I don't get any noticable interference. Theoretically I guess we should hear some cancellation at work but I have never noticed it. Not that I go around listening to everything in mono all the time. Btw max, you warned me a month or two ago that vinyl was addictive. Not that I really doubted you but I have come to see you were right. My latest record is Leo Kottke's 1973 live album "My Feet Are Smiling" Some beautiful and nearly unbelievable acoustic guitar playing. Peace, Josh
  24. At the rate I'm going by the time I do get married(if that happens) I will have so much stuff she will just have to accept it Of course I say this and then lynnm's story comes to mind Peace, Josh

So, playing a tune at moderate level would have a completely different tone structure than the same tune at loud level. I always found that annoying. mdeneen ---------------- I think this is actually the case with most peoples ears. This is something that good audio engineers will take into account when mastering an album. But then there are those albums that don't seem to have been mastered at all Peace, Josh
