Hey Bob, I'm thinking about a change to the DX3 driver in my LT-2000s. A while back I read some old posts about the some of the sound differences between the...

Jim, Basically, you will not hear much degradation in the bass when you move to the DX3. You will have to add a couple of ohms of series resistance, but other...
OK Bob, thanks for the input. It sounds like what I want. I'm not in a rush because I'm satisfied, but always looking for more, so at the right time, I will...

Hi Bob, Hi all, After having spent a lot of time on numerous forums, tech docs and MJK MathCad sheets (not so easy to use :-))), I have eventually decided to...
Sorry not to have put it in the first message. Looks impossible to find specs of Armstrong 420 in France... and not even on US Armstrong website !!! Do you...
Francois, ... There is no reason that silicone wouldn't work. I never tried it. Liquid nails is a "rubber" based product, is cheap, easy to apply and readily...

Hi Bob, What I was thinking is that Fermacell, in addition to reducing wall vibration, has some acoustic absorbing property which Hardi Backer probably hasn't....

Hi Bob, I am on the way for starting gluing this evening. Reading further your instructions, I came across two points raising questions : - I am very much...
I have to make this comment about the Brines FT1600II's after listening today. Kind of a reaffirmation, a wake up call? You have to do this once in awhile. ...
Francois, ... connection : do you really use only ONE pair of cat5e per enclosure, that is ONE of these very thin copper wires for each terminal ? I thought...

Jim, No I haven't. ALL new stuff gets a lot of hype, which sort of reflects on the "look what I just did" approach of the DIY world. However, let me say that...

Hi Bob et al, Today one of my stereo channels went dead. I'm suspecting the F200A driver on the left side was blown somehow. Before ordering a new pair of...
Paul and all, Paul had sent me a private email that duplicates his post here. I answered that email privately before I saw this one -- I get the daily synopsis...

Thanks Bob for giving me step by step instructions how to make sure it's the driver that died. After I found out, I called Madisound and was told I could send...
As you may know, for my personal use, I use a computer front end to a DAC then then to the amp. I have removed the passive filters from my speakers and do the...

Bob, Thanks a lot for sharing a way to digitally EQ the drivers in place of the passive filters. Like you I also rip my CDs onto HDs in WAV and FLAC formats....
Paul, I don't know! I took a cursory look at the Squeezbox user guide and didn't see anything. Digital EQ is so important that I would think the either...

Hi Bob, Are 4" not 102mm instead of 76.8 (which must be +/- 3") ?! As far as paint finish is concerned, I am far from an auto body finish... This would need...
Hi Bob, I tried today to tune the LT-2000, after having put the filters, and I was very much surprised to be unable to find the right length... I can't hear...
Hi Bob, LT-2000 + fostex 207 seems to be very, very happy with a small class T-amp (Trends). It sounds even better than with my Harman Kardon 970, the...

Francois, I love T-amps. The sound is clean and honest. The 5 or so watts you get from these small T-amps is more than enough to driver the FE207E's into ...
Hi Bob, Yes the filter is in (2mH + 7ohm), as well as the zobel (3µF + 15 ohm). I'm listening at the LT-2000's right now. A real pleasure with de class-D....
