  1. Thats a iffy thing to say because it depends on so much stuff. A better recommendation is to say have it at a suitable volume which isnt peaking.
  2. You need a compressor. A compresses reduce the gain when the input volume gets louder. So when talking it wouldn't do anything but once you get loud enough and pass a limit which you set on the compressor it reduces the volume. This should stop the peaking but there is a stage that it just sounds a bit stupid when it compresses like mad. http://www.hotto.de/software/audiocompressorlimiter.html try that bit of software.
  3. Of course there no sub woofer so there not throwing out the sub 125hz, but they do produce good low mids. There not popular because most the time there massive. But a similar style of speaker Distributed mode loudspeakers where some drives vibrate a large canvas produce a similar sound but, they also arnt very popular but they are going to be because of the the war on making TV screens thin, so currently television screens are starting to get so thin that now the speaker is the limiting factor on thinness so a lot of research is going into making it so that the tv screen its self is the speaker by using DML speakers I saw some people attempt planar magnetic but it doesn't work because you still have cables in the way.
  4. It will have good bass because unlike a ribbon tweeter which is no bigger then a couple inches this is huge and it does the bass well. Personally i think those modifications ruin it. If it wasnt modified and was still with all the original parts like the trim and the canvas I would be throwing money at the owner but it doesnt look in that good of nick too many modifications for my liking.
  5. wtf you plugged that cable into where you would need that.
  6. probably the best option for a easy interface, and i think it has some virtual base which is normally better then just turning up the lows on a EQ
  7. shure 58 for vocals, shure 57 for guitars, DI box for guitars. 4 channel audio interface with a midi input.
  8. But they wouldnt waste money on getting a more powerful amp and being a all in one system it probably just powerfull enough for the speakers or possibly less powerful. It will probably be fine at max volume but it probably start getting distortion.
  9. With low frequencies its common for a wave length to be large then a room. Since sound is made up of low pressure and high pressure areas changing, with low frequencies being so big you can have the hole low pressure fit the room. So it can be loud at the edge of the room but quite in the middle because of the length of wave. This is called a room mode, its quite common to have multiple in a room. http://prntscr.com/aee3rd So on that website you type in your room dimension and it calculates where there will be room modes. E.g. in my 2m x 4m x 2.5m room I will have a room mode at 43 HZ the red shaded in areas are where it is loud and the blue is where it is quiet. http://prntscr.com/aee4ij But at 440Hz Its all over the place because the wave length is smaller so multiple high and low pressure areas can fit into my room.
  10. Would doubt it because its a complete system I would think logitec would think about it a little. Also I doubt the amplifier is more powerful then the max needed for the speakers so it shoudlnt blow up.
  11. Sometimes fire is a nice indicator that you need to buy new speakers.
  12. You guys are using something called the Waterhouse effect. If you take a sub woofer which is omnidirectional (audio going out in every direction) some of the audio is going away from you. So by placing the sub next to a wall the audio is reflected off the wall and towards you. Having the sub against one wall (the floor) the volume is doubled, against two walls (floor and a wall) increase it by 4x, and placing it in a corner so three walls its 8x louder. But each time you add a surface you increase the amount of room modes. So placing it in the corner will make it louder but only louder in certain areas other areas it may be slightly quieter. Audiophiles agreed that using four subs and placing them in the centre of a wall on the floor in a square room, produces the loudest SPL and the least room modes (normally non if in a perfect square). Heres a link to some more info, not very big but very informative https://trueaudio.com/array/downloads/Waterhouse-Output%20of%20a%20sound%20source%201958.pdf My opinion on the subwoofer crawl is people just dont understand acoustics well enough to just know where to place something, or they dont know the maths to work out room modes. So they have to crawl on the floor like a idiot and it just falls into place. but hey who needs to know maths when this little website does it for you http://amroc.andymel.eu/
  13. not from american wouldnt know where to look
  14. there isnt a single male male one for sale which is good for you? Would recomend the m2m 3.5 adapter you bend one and your screwed.
  15. Its fine, its no different to any other analogue audio cable, only difference is that its wired differently to two different connectors.
  16. because it makes the coil twitch and vibrate with little power behind it to move the large sub cone. So the cone doesnt move while the coil is going crazy with tiny little movements and it normally over heats or just rattles its self apart.
  17. When sending very little power to the subs you can risk not send enough power to move the coil, its like when driving a car you lift the clutch up but dont press the accelerator and you stall the car because it doesnt have enough power to move its self. Its not normally not a problem on mids or tweeters because they are smaller then the subs and dont need as much power to make the speaker work.
  18. When at low volume levels increase low freq, and at high volume reduce low freq. Reasoning is so that at low levels the sub is reviving a enough power to not damage it, and reduce it at high so the sub isnt over powering.
  19. if you place it in the corner about 30cm(12inches) away it will be drastically louder. it wont be acoustically better but it be louder.
  20. Find something which will give you virtual bass its better then just ramping up the lows freqs.
  21. Sennheisers PC320 and PC330, there based of there lower grade headphones with a microphone attached and there not bad for the cost and there built better then most other companies do at that price range and sound much better then most as well.
  22. Its a DJ mixer used to mix between different decks. Search for second hand Yamaha or Alan and Heath mixing desks there normal cheap and reasonably decent
  23. unistall the drivers then install them again from a new source not your back up.
  24. So your trying to solve the problem of lobeing of certain frequencies by putting two drivers together on a headphone. But thats not a problem because its a headphone and even if there is a large lobe at 60 degrees or what ever there is always the central slobe which is always going into the ear while the rest just go into the side of the ear cup.
