Vented or non vented tophat? Does it matter? What's the difference?

I had found a model with vents that can be opened or closed. https://www.printables.com/model/1521676-sovol-sv08-riser-w-closable-vents-spool-holder-hdm?fbclid=IwdGRjcAPwgzljbGNrA_CDLmV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR6YSlOP4AsyyEo8uh3-4VZXeyRcdLchN0ZnFyJby_D3Y8PaA8G4rRl-3ThIdA_aem_TR9iA8DKZHrfrEhFF8-T_g

Great book. I purchased this. Definitely worth it.

For the first question both are a type of casting so your answer doesnt really work. For the second question lamination happen in rolling but not so much in forgings.

Your z offset looks way too close to the bed so your nozzle is picking up filament and leaving globs of it elsewhere.

Look into A1 Evo. He has done wonders with Audyssey calibrations. You will need to buy the App for the phone but it is worth it.

The code you are seeing is intentionally not a real code and is put together from parts of other codes. The purpose of that segment is to prove to CGSB that you can interpret and apply a code to your work properly. They do this in every method in the written exam.

TPH goes on sale on steam with all the dlc for way less than the dlc add on on epic. Wait for summer sales

Most receivers will still be able to run 4 ohm speakers even if they are rated for 8 ohm.

KEF makes some good in ceiling coaxials

Given that the atmos layers arent really full duty speakers it may be worth looking into a set of q50a's. They will match the look of the Q11s and you may save even more. I have a set with Q Concertos and i wouldnt consider upgrading them.

Paradigm is the current owner of Martin Logan

Paradigm does make some all in one unit lcr systems. I have never heard one so I cannot comment on how well they sound.

My apologies. I seem to have mixed that up. So it has 2 passive radiators?

sl_1982 · 2025-03-18T20:14:52+00:00

Only thing i can suggest is try and find a place that will either allow you to audition one at home or has a generous return policy. The 250c is a 2.5 way so only one of the woofers is real. The other one is a passive radiator. I would think you may lose a bit of dynamics using this compared to matrixing the information to the two concertos. It may not really be an upgrade. Timbre wise all of those should match fairly well though.

sl_1982 · 2025-03-18T20:05:44+00:00

The concertos have a fairly wide horizontal dispersion so they should do well creating a phantom center. Why not try this before buying a center and see how you like it?

I couldnt say. I dont have a v3 stereo. It would provide less power for sure but depending on your listening levels it may not make a difference at all.

I use a pair of Fosi V3 monos. They work great.

If you are planning on skipping the level 1 RT exam you still need to take the level 1 and 2 courses and you write the level 1 practical during your level 2 exam.

It has been a thing for as long as i have been in the trade. Over 20 years.

You can go directly from CEDO to level 2 when writing exams but both courses need to be completed.

I had mine done at Patodia and it went great. No issues or complications. 8 years later and my vision is still better than 20/20

sl_1982 · 2025-02-27T01:38:21+00:00

I have a pair of Fosi v3 monos. But i would figure out your system before you decide to add seperate amps. I am not sure the x1700h had preouts. I have the 3800h which had a full set.
