Agree. In fact Dali looks quite impressive on paper cos of its ribbon tweeter (more details) but when auditioned it, it lacks the dynamics & punchy feeling as compared to PSB.

Was comparing between the Ikon & PSB Imagine series,

jchong, you have been Knighted

To add more, with the extra bandwidth in Blu-ray particularly lossless audio, it is a whole new experience to most of us if you do have such good equipments to produce the sound

there is currently no conclusive evidence that these sub-audible effect exist, it have not been determine how does the higher and lower range sound effect the human body. maybe it does exist but it sure is more expensive to get the hardware require to listen to sound that you may not be able to perceive.

Bro, how do u feel on Synchrony One?
In your wish list for next upgrade?

I think sub-audible effects below 20 Hz have been established. Owners of powerful subs will attest to this. Those above 20 kHz are more uncertain.

Anyway, certainly I agree that higher bandwidth hardware would be more expensive and it's up to each person to determine if worthwhile spending for it or not.

But yesterday not fully able to test Synchrony One since ROTF probably not the best material to test mains (but excellent for testing sub). Next time must play some concerts, since I think material that is optimised for stereo is best for testing main speakers.

Havign said that, i still puzzled why the Velo SPL 1200 can perform better yesterday @ Mr Ng's pad as compared to my place. Bass didnt sound so harsh and hard (fake) as compared to mine.

it's the room dude

But i got AS EQ wor

room & placement 1st, then eq mah...

Added on November 12, 2009, 11:02 amdid it ever occur to u that maybe ur preference is for ported subs??

hence no matter wat the sealed type does for u, it won't be right

How to get rid, u also dont wanna buy from me hahaha...My WTS thread in Marketplace still no 1 hiu me leh..

I thought of it, but yestrday the SPL 1200 sealed sub @ Mr Ng's pad sounded 'more right' for me... Could it be the run in issue ah since its still new..

that's true if it sounds rite at ng's place...

must be the room & the run in then.

Sien lo, never ending like that...

I agree with ronnt88, it's the room. Mr Ng's place got carpeting and some thick curtains on the side - I suspect his wooden raised flooring also plays a big part.

EQ1 can help some, but maybe now you need things like bass traps also?
