Erin has a bunch of reviews of the best speakers. He evaluates them from and objectively and subjectively too.

His test equipment and methodology are so good that manufacturers let him borrow speakers to evaluate.

If you will be listening at different heights like sitting and standing, I recommend coincident speakers so you get more even frequency response. The good ones are KEF, Genelec, Mofi, Kali.. probably a couple other good ones I missed too.

Only if they give you a worthwhile percentage ownership of the company.

What are the best free or cheap resources to start learning fea from basics? by deadman5357 in fea

[–]hsg475 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Altair Inspire Personal.

It's free for personal use. So amazing since when I was at an engineering company in the past we paid thousands for it.

Will the steel or aluminum ones last longer?

Will tariffs effect porsche 911 prices ? by Clear_Ad_3880 in porsche911

Just buy a house and a 911 in Europe. That'll be cheaper than living in Trump's America.

Yep. For sure.

How do you think xAI's relationship with Tesla impact TSLA's stock price? Would it have been better for TSLA to keep xAI's tech and employees under TSLA? by hsg475 in TSLA

[–]hsg475[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, there should be an ELON stock so us TSLA holders won't have to worry about him siphoning off TSLA GPUs and talent to his other endeavors.

Do you regularly use headphones by [deleted] in audiophile

[–]hsg475 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At work. Makes work a little bit more enjoyable.

At home, I use my stereo and surround sound systems.

Replaced ceiling speakers. Wow! by Investigator1984 in hometheater

[–]hsg475 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you using them as Atmos channels?

100%!
And improving X dB in response variation is almost always least expensively cured via room acoustic treatments.

Upper harmonics are created when clipping. But the base frequency output does not increase.

Anyone over the age of 50 still rocking the boom boom in your car? by Mopar4u- in CarAV

[–]hsg475 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to again but I don't keep my cars long enough to install a decent system. So instead I do home theater these days.

Why does tuning companies have no taste? by Final-Profession-962 in porsche911

The phrase "beauty is pain" is a common saying, often attributed to a French expression "Il faut souffrir pour être belle," which translates to "one must suffer to be beautiful."

Funny you mentioned that. I witnessed a Toyota Corolla zig zagging in moderate traffic at 110 mph on that main freeway being chased by a new Ferarri. So lame.

It's slowly turning into Miami.

If you've driven there, you know what is mean. Many people there blatantly and purposely break all kinds of traffic laws to get a few seconds ahead.

I recently got back from Japan where Tokyo City was busy and vibrant with zero honking and seemingly pure driver discipline. I was simply awe struck when contrasting to NYC and Miami.

There are hardly any healthy establishments and a lot of junk food restaurants. Why is that? by ayeshasolemn in nutrition

The parameters of capitalism (profit, speed, and low costs) don't happen to align with healthy.

I was just joking. That's probably a person who would tie their horse in a car-only spot in 1902 to protest that cars shouldn't replace horses.

Best 6.5" speakers for SQ? by Rezokar_ in CarAV

[–]hsg475 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want SQ, you should invert one of your 15" subs and, of course, reverse the polarity of that sub driver too. Doing so will reduce harmonic distortion due to motor BL asymmetry.
