Had something a bit similar happen a few months/years back, hearing some sort of distortion on the left ear after listening a few minutes. I don't quite recall the details, but I think wearing HPs reversed (L cup on R ear and R on L) it stuck to left ear, so concluded it was ear related. Tried...

Wow that is nuts, looking at the left pic, almost looks like it's 2 inch thick aluminum...! How much would just 5 feet of that weigh and cost?! :oops: the weight of the 5-foot long aluminum cylinder with a 2-inch thick wall and a 240mm outer diameter would be approximately 872.07 lbs. Cost...

Rings? It would be quite a bit more complex though than just rings, since you're going from curve to flat... Either the front of the drivers would stick out a bit like for Perlisten speakers (in which case almost worth printing an entire front baffle?), or like the original post drawing the...

Ok yeah if he's going to machine the cylinder using a CNC or whatnot sure, I had imaged he had cylinders available and would cut holes using hand tools lol The cylinder appears extremely thick on the design, likely can't be as thick, as it would cost a fortune and weigh a ton! Weird thread...

IMHO, if you have to ask, you can't afford it. It's a cool solution, but you'll also need a CAD design where you'll provide the exact shape which will act as an adapter for attaching the cylinder to the driver, so ... Again, if you have to ask any question about the process, you can likely...

o_Oo_Oo_O Are you going to use the exact same coaxial driver used in the KEF LS60? And if so, can't you also use the same woofers? If so, you'll also want similar internal volume for the drivers as per the LS60 cabinet, as that might also have an effect. For an analogy ... Think custom...

Could it be that not all felts are equal? Wilson audio also uses felt, but it's used much more sparingly. Theirs might also be less dense; more porous, which might also affect what its diffraction and absorbtion properties are? So likely using different felts would have different results...

Integrating the woofers to the cylinder might be a challenge, how would you attach the the drivers to the alu? (flat to curved isn't easy!) And will you create some sort of transition for smooth baffle integration? Though the integration part might be near insignificant, extrusions and sharp...

Yeah I've been using Godot for a while, definitely one of the better if not the best engine for indie games. Android support too, 2D & 3D. But technologically, it's not remotely close to what's in those new UE Demos. So great as a free engine, but not in the race in terms of capabilities...

Watched the clip, which is typically a good idea before commenting... ;) Lots of sweet dev features, as well as optimizations. Apparently their mega light system has very low cost, far lower than typical ray tracing, so actually is a bit the opposite as my last comment; it has the potential...

This, or that games will run just as well as on the demo. For reference, what I can see is that a 4090 is $1600, (btw keep seeing repair videos on them because they seem to 'often' self-destroy) and while there are more affordable options, ray tracing and other effects are just expensive in...

Took me a while! So hifiman (US) sells them $369.00cdn on amazon.ca, with ~$54 import fees deposit + ~9$ standard shipping = ~$432cdn estimated delivery 11nov. The 399 option is sold by PipGear (ca) for $460 after taxes delivered Oct 28 US Hifiman Warranty vs Canada might be an issue though...

Not seeing better deals on amazon.ca, I was looking at efl, where I purchased 400i a long time ago, and they were great with providing replacement for the defective (distorting) pair. But now amazon.ca has the same 399 price, only a few (4) left in stock though Don't remember hearing abou the...

You can't remember a precise sound, but you might remember your impressions of the sound though, then have mental notes vs others. Whether or not at that particular point in time you were affected by placebo or other factors, or that you might be misremembering the attributes of other...

Just curious, why add ice?! To me, it just made every drink I've tried with ice taste worse than without... It really skews the taste...! Wait... Could my ice be bad? Ha! So I'm guessing everyone who uses ice uses such 'fancy' ice.. I tried rocks & others to cool down drinks, but I...

Did you let cables settle in the system though? A process which can take several hours or even days. Cables change after time. That's why when you compare a $27 speaker cables to $20,000 speaker cables, you might think the cheap cable is the expensive one, not enough time to settle. Imagine the...

How do they know this? Was this measured or just subjective opinions of differences that may or may not exist? Unless the expensive cable makes the sound 'less bright', because it's a shit cable that can't properly transmit an audio signal, which it shouldn't, that's not something which should...

And you know this how? The point of the BT is that they shouldn't know which cable they're listening to, but if they're told that they're listening to either cable A or cable B, then all those alleged difference they're claiming to hear could very well be imaginary. The volume matching is an...

As predicted, I'm torn between "idiot doesn't know how to do a BT" vs "charlatan pretends like he's doing a BT knowing he's not really doing a proper BT". For those who didn't bother to watch the clip, they basically knew which cable (A or B) they were listening to, and were just trying to...

Just watched the first minute, but this guy has so much snake-oil crap in his room it might actually just make a real difference, given that it's all acting like diffusers (room treatment).
