Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Is that why

...they didn't have access to a 62 band digital equalizer with a resolution of +/+ 0.1 db like John Atkinson does. They had to make do with what they had.

It took you two years to tune your ten band units? Apparently even that isn't enough since you seem to require fiddling with the adjustments on a per recording basis. I spent about four hours yesterday tuning my speakers in their new abode. I varied distance to back wall, bass trap placement, distance to listening couch, and even the bass level control on the Sound Lab backplates. Using my trusty RS SPL meter and a Stereophile test CD, I made twenty two trials of analyzing ten frequencies from 25 to 200 hz for each one. I was able to reduce a 16 db octave to octave difference down to 2 db.

I never throw anything away.

Try moving. It is then when you fully appreciate the (non) value of all the crap one tends to accumulate. :)
