    Spending big bucks on HiFi Audio

    This topic came up few time on other threads. Why is it not acceptable by our society (and wives) to spend big bucks on HiFi audio (or any other lesser practiced hobbies) when it is acceptable to spend $75k on a new car or have second car as a hobby car? Is it because HiFi is an obscure...

    How to look for room modes in REW measurements

    Hi All, I've played around with REW many years ago, but I am now just getting serious into REW after spending tons on a decent mic and audio interface (I know I don't need to, but I was already buying it for something else).

    SVS Ultra Evolution

    SVS is one of those companies that leaves me on the fence. They do appear to employ science, but doesn't look like they employ a lot of deep science. From there website, they have a picture of their speakers in an anechoic chamber, but they don't publish much measurements on their speakers...

    Class D amp and SMSP coil whine?

    I have a pair of SVS SB-3000, they both suffer from very minor coil whine. It bugs me, because I am OCD like that. My experience with electronics with PWM technologies such as Class D amps and switching power supplies often times suffer from coil whine. Yet, I also have a DIY Hypex NC500...
