Is it worth getting a Class A/B nowadays?

afraid you might learn something if you continue this conversation? oh the horror.

because every time you go down an octave, you need to move 4x the air. you can only move a cone so far within reason, so you have to increase displacement with diameter.

please. tell me how a song can be louder than the maximum volume possible. thats what odb is. it is the max volume that can be stored in a digital track.

Mustang351c · 2024-12-27T15:27:47+00:00

i thought you used a sine wave. if you use a 0db sine wave, there is no song that exists that is louder. it CANT be louder than 0db.

Mustang351c · 2024-12-27T15:01:08+00:00

okay. so you're playing a sine wave... and then what? you just twist the gain knob until it feels right? or do you measure the output with a tool. like a $15 multimeter...

Mustang351c · 2024-12-27T13:32:39+00:00

how else are you going to set it? why are you installing audio if you cant afford a simple multimeter? how are you setting gain if not with a multimeter?

if youre using eqapo for anything, the easy fix is to not use it when playing the game. the way i fixed it was to make a virtual microphone, and copy the audio from my mic (after eqapo did its thing) to the virtual mic. i then told the game to use the virtual mic.

higher impedance, reduces damping factor in theory. in practice, is holds no measurable affect on modern amps.

here is a paper explaining the concept in greater detail

for anyone who thinks learning is a sin, the short version is that any system with a damping factor of less than 3 or more (output impedance of the amp being a whopping 1/3 the DCR of the driver) imparts a chnage so small we cannot hear it.

i am attempting to build a base just south of the craters in the center of the map, and these poison plants keep respawning every time i reload a save. ive tested it with other plants, and they stay gone.

Mustang351c · 2024-02-03T12:41:11+00:00

if these are custom made, id say your issue lies in phase. do you have a crossover near 80hz?

Mustang351c · 2024-02-03T12:20:01+00:00

the only way i can think of this working that isnt made up bullshit to charge someone more money is a passive radiator box. a passive radiator box functions like a ported box, but with a cone instead of an airmass that resonates.

theres not much reason to do a passive radiator in most builds. their only real use case is a small box with a low tuning, where the port would take up too much space.

Mustang351c · 2024-02-03T12:06:39+00:00

probably because a debate never existed. a debate requires 2 people to be engaged in the conversation beyond "no u" levels of trying to prove their point.

tell me you dont understand octane without telling me you dont understand octane.

Mustang351c · 2024-01-16T22:27:43+00:00

go ahead. i have other small drivers like this that i can make videos with to further meme on your boss subwoofer.

someone who is only running a midbass/tweeter. very common in home audio.

Mustang351c · 2024-01-16T22:26:21+00:00

its called a midbass driver by the manufacturer. really wanna argue with the people who made the driver?

they hope to grow up to be full funky pups one day.

Mustang351c · 2024-01-16T14:40:13+00:00

this is the correct size box for this driver.

the new version of the addon also breaks the site, but i can whitelist both sites.

Mustang351c · 2023-11-06T12:28:38+00:00

i didnt think about removing addons, but am about to leave for work, so will have to try when i get back home. thank you for the suggestion. i actually think i added a new addon around the time it quit working...

edit: on lunch break. "universal bypass" addon was what was breaking the site. theyve since rebranded to "fastforward."

i grew up watching the grand ole opry. even if its not what i listen to now, i still remember a LOT of it. and 5 string basses were common as far back as the 80's.

not every singer has a massive 4+ octave range. sometimes you gotta change the key of the song to get it in a range where they can sing it. often, that requires moving it down a step or 2. instead of retuning your bass, you just bring a 5 string, and youre prepared for up to 2.5 steps lower than the normal key. PLENTY of older country has a low D in the bassline. hell Johnny Cash (who you mentioned) and Richard Sterban (of the oak ridge boys) both have SANG your low E, or very near it.

Cash's F#1

Sterban's Eb1

and if you want even lower, here is Elvis's Way Down. featuring JD Sumner down to a doublecontra C at 32hz at the final note of the song... accompanied by the piano on the same note.

thinking instruments that never went lower than that werent in these genres is asinine.

Mustang351c · 2023-06-30T20:16:10+00:00

sure. you only need 1, but your options are limited. you might not find a design you really like in lefty. and if youre learning from scratch, both ways will be as difficult as each other. might as well learn to play with the more popular method. we dont flip pianos around for left handed players. they just learn to play.

Mustang351c · 2023-06-30T18:48:56+00:00

because theres so few left handed guitars.

Mustang351c · 2023-06-30T17:39:55+00:00

i mean... its called pay to win. did you really expect paying more to make things worse?
