I am unsure of the permanence of this solution lol I will have to see, I may get the fireplace removed and build in a nicer looking bass trap in its place. But I do like that this is non destructive....

It looks crazy indeed. It also looks easy to make. And if it works... Great!

Cosmetic cloth would be easy to add while you decide what to do next. On the other hand, if you have no problem with appearances, then... no problem.

other than that have exposed some serious bass issues in my room that the old speakers did not, they sound incredible. I brought the old ones back out to measure them as well, and listened to them again, they just sound so flat and lacking dynamics vs the new EA MM2s, its wild

Taste of real dynamic scale.

Mid level speakers in well treated rooms can sound better than hi-end speakers in challenged acoustic spaces.

I got the diffusion panels in today, they didn't make as large of a difference, but it's definitely there. oddly enough, I think the bass improved the most. Imaging got marginally sharper and the slight sense of over damped highs is gone now with the diffusers at side wall first reflection points

I posted a pic in the pics of ur speaker system thread if you were curious. Didn't really feel the need to start a new thread, im not a room treatment expert

Totally relate with that statement.

I enjoyed it but after we watched it, it made our group want to watch Fury Road right after.

Shortly next to Extreme with Alfred in assembly :)

Just to pour more oil in the fire we have a new development happening - to be revealed in Munich this year. It is smaller and cheaper than Forza yet does a few things even better.

@crenca Wrt loudness I believe SoupR heard them play plenty loud in a generous room. At least what Alfred tells me there was nightclub music and loudness at one point.

I don’t actually listen that loud normally, but yeah, when I was demoing them Sunday morning, they turned it up very loud for some of my tracks and they didn’t have any issues.

The upper unit is midbass with some considerable xmax capability. It only fills the range from 75 to 150 Hz. This is key to produce explosive slam of drums and portray accurate and pure upper bass notes.

Also, Estelon philosophy is all the drivers (also the woofers) have to be locked in phase in xo regions - with precision. This is why the bass is that damn accurate. From there on the pure midrange takes over - up to 2 kHz. This driver is very low xmax extremely specialist mid driver only. The construction is basically that of a mega-tweeter. It would suck at producing any bass.

That makes sense, Danny Carey’s drums sounded better on Invincible than any other rig at the show

So far for me the highlights of the show are the Perlisten room, the Rockport room and the sb acoustics room with the new Gema diy speaker

I’m not sure why I thought that would work, next thing you know it’s 1am…I’d forgotten just how incredible these headphones are.

Agreed, they're one of my faves for sure

Nice! OG Utopias is where it's at 100%. Enjoy!

ZMF cables do look solid if they offer them with headphone terminations that work for you

Ah, didn't make the connection to your name here. Hope you enjoy my Utopia :) I like Forza flagship cable for a headphone like the Utopia.

@ColdsnapBry I did not either! I hope I do as well

its like supernova....I thought it up in high school when xbox live first launched and have been using it ever since

Back in the 90s there was a "poknacha" and my friends IRL said "Pock Natcha" and I was like...ya'll it's "pokin' at 'cha" - so I believe it @jowls lol.

Century Blvd in LA runs in between 99th st. and 101st st. It took me 3 years of driving that road on a regular basis before It occurred to me where Century got its name from.

I’m looking forward to it. The like hardcore cinephiles seem to be the only people that can’t get behind Villeneuve. I’m just happy someone that knows their way around the camera is interested in making hard sci-fi and Hollywood is willing to give him money to do it.

I can at least understand hardcore cinephiles not liking Nolan, even if I mostly disagree...not liking Villeneuve is baffling to me, its like they don't like it just cause he's made it pseudo-mainstream?

he makes art house science fiction that is just barely mainstream enough to get huge budgets and essentially tentpole film status. its kind of a miracle, and im here for it

5 of the FPGAs present in the current MScaler, leading to much higher power draw. 4 million taps. two chassis, one for the power supply. launching in Munich at the high end show in a few months.

I went to get the link for the video, but it actually got taken down. curious.

As for pricing, just a guess, but I can't imagine it'll msrp for less than 15k, not with two chassis.

No I'm not an Apple whore. Don't see the point of a device that makes me look like a virgin

I think it’s the future but wait and watch for me as of now.

Almost as if the platform has a history of being more concerned with giving as much money to actual artists as possible. Bandcamp Fridays ftw

Yeah hard not to be worried about the platform’s future.

Lol I thought it was going to be kpop

Guess I coulda specified that Synestia is a deathcore band, oops

some of the new Kpop

Yes, I'm a fan too. And I expect it (hopefully) to keep its softness and bulk longer than the Sennheiser-stock so-called padding.

If you need/want more space, the Hd800 band does click off, I think I might do that in the co-pilot video on our site YouTube channel. Glad you like it!

Update, the crescent snap is also a game changer on my AirPods Max. the suspension portion of the headband had basically stopped working on my pair, so it was just the metal resting on the crown of my head for the last year or so

Kinda funny the previous 0-400-0 record holder was the koenigsegg regera, also full of rimac’s tech

I like the Jesko myself. That sound is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36LcFTjf--o&ab_channel=F1%26SupercarsChallenge

The jesko will be a very cool car once its done
