boray i've noticed you have spent a lot of time fiddling with monitors and you appear to be somewhat of an expert. Your work with eq and monitors appears like rocket science to me so I wanted to ask you a question:

I was thinking about perhaps raising my power amp in my rack so it was actually physically above the monitors. I was thinking the effects of gravity would actually increase the rate of the flow of electricity and the power going to my monitors would be increased. Also would it lessen noise because the electricty would flow more effeciently? Your expert opinion would be much appreciated.
 
Nubs, sir you are a Fu*kin' genious!!!..I'm gonna go try that right now!Would it help if I wraped the speaker cables in tin foil?Perhaps a tin foil hat..Ya thats the ticket!:D

How damn funny...

Wazzup? You just need these flame wars or not?

Boray, my monitor mentor, another thing I have been thinking about is maybe putting fans in front of the monitors. It seems to me it would blow the air molecules around and randomize them which would in a sense act like diffusion giving an overall more neutral (flatter frequency response) sound at the mix position. What do you think?
 
Nubs.................

...for once, you and I are on the same wavelength!

Don't forget to also ask clueless about what a stereo signal is.... he has more enlightening theories....!! ;)

What I liked was how this monitor "expert" needed to have the concept of active and passive monitors explained to him.

Yes - and this same self-proclaimed expert needed an explanation of the definition of a stereo signal...

When you record a stereo track, it's stored on the hard drive as two components, one L component and one R component, not as on L+R component and one L-R component.

Priceless! :D :D
 
Guys, the fan diffusor thing only works if you power the fan from the program bus, thru 12 Crown DC300's bridged in series-parallel - otherwise, the diffusion isn't phase-locked, and you get 'way too much upper-low mid coriolis effect, which will eventually superheat the air between your ears, causing a massive meltdown which, apparently, is much more than just a theory...

well, that is the truth. i mean, it doesn't make any sense at all, especially the L+R (mono) and L-R (errr.... screwed-up phase mono?) part, but there's no lack of facts in that statement alone :)


as such, i also officially proclaim Boray to be Expert Of All Things.
 
the most important thig is to place your monitors in an east/west axis and prevent placing them in north/south axis.

This ist because the electrons flow faster from south to north than the other direction, resulting in an more powerful and thus louder signal on the northern speaker :o

:p

Never heard of MS decoding ?
