the amplifier source has a maximum voltage of 150mA. So the performance is much lower than stated by the manufacturer. It can only be 2*100w at 4ohm RMS. Has anyone measured the performance of this amp?

. . . on any of these smaller speakers, one needs a high pass filter, set at near 100hz . . . and a subwoofer like the Dayton Audio 8 and 10" models . . . I have RB-42s set up this way, driven by the Emotiva X-100 50 wpc, in a small 8 x 16' room, the filter takes the stress of repro under 100hz from them, and the powered subs do the down n dirty bass notes . . . works well in my modest system.

Its A shame the Altec factory did a crummy job of welding the horns together they are not finished properly those welds should of bin grinded out and made nice and flush so that you don't see them at all , to me that is a factory fail in looks I would of fired the welder Guy first impressions mean every thing .

I own a set of Altec University Mustangs , and I built a pair of EV Aristocrat enclosure's to put the Mustangs in so they could have a awesome enclosure to call home , the Aristocrat was made bye Paul Klipsch , I got the plans from EV and crafted my Aristocrats bye hand the enclosures where built to give them a more modern look to them , and they work very well together. the sound from them is awesome , I also crafted a set of Sentry 2 EV enclosure's and I use the 12 TRXB speaker as my driver for the Sentry 2 enclosure's , nothing beats EV when it comes to theater and live performances it is a very competitive field .I am the Speaker Doctor of Canada I have repaired a lot of speakers mostly Bose , JBL, Boston , AR, Advent, the list goes on mostly the repair of fixing rotted foam on most speakers that are made the list goes on .

try spades . . .

Someone gave me one of these UMM-6 mics. What software, besides REW, can be used along with the UMM-6 to create a signal and then interpret the input signal? I just want to create some FRD files, but I don't understand how to use this mic or what software is used for speaker measurements.

Does anyone know the jbl studio 620? I can get that one for a bit more than the stage a130.. not sure if it's worth it.

Not really a fair comparison. The Cv's don't have a Midrange, compare the Cerwin vega D9's against any Sony Speaker and they will blow them out this world

I bought a pair of NCx500 amps, but I was curious about the NC252MP, so I found an assembled unit offered second-hand at a decent price, and I bought that as well. Both are really excellent amps, with the NCx500 sounding slightly warmer and having slightly better bass character along with its unrestrained dynamic potential, but the NC252MP is still a world-class amplifier on its own. The NC252MP runs about as warm as some Class-AB amps I have had, though it has less heatsinking so the amount of heat output in watts is probably less than a comparable Class-AB amp. For the majority of users and the majority of speakers, the NC252MP is an endgame amp choice disguised as an amp module. The only reason to buy something else is you want more power for really hefty speakers (where you'd buy something like NCx500) OR you want a deliberately sweetened sound like certain solid state or tubes can provide for matching with certain system components; the NCore amps sound squeaky clean and detailed, but they are also very literal - no sweetening of the sound, just linear amplification of the input signal.

Sansui never made very good speakers they never used very good drivers , there cheap Japan Drivers those drivers where put in many other cheap japan speakers like Realistic , Foster, Sears, AGS, they all used the same drivers , and they used wimpy drivers with low power rating and a lot of them get blown , just like your woofer . to fix it you need to remove the dust cap and sawder it back on to the coil.

What really makes me curious, is what is that very nice song, little like Ray Charles style that plays on the background when you speak at the end. Would you know what it is ?

My best bet for the binding post not to vibrate when unscrewed to help banana plugs support would be to use teflon tape as much as needed so that's it's snug when untight, thus cutting all vibrations. (we don't care the thread being insulated with the tape in that case).

U obviously don’t have much knowledge with vintage speakers

the treble on the sonys have a lot of energy. it can be annoying for music.

I have three K2020A+ amps, paid under $35 apiece. I use them where many people would use powered PC speakers. The old Tripath chips are actually very good at near-field sound level, so one of these little guys with a pair of Micca COVO-S or similar speakers is miles better than just about any PC speakers you can buy.

I am considering second-hand speakers to purchase, I am between these Sony ones at 180 USD and some Jamo e800 AT ABOUT 150 USD. I would like your opinion or that of your subscribers regarding price and quality of both. What would you choose?

Hahaaa this is how they ship your shit!

JBL for me

I don’t like either. The JBL sound boxy through the treble and the Sony like the treble will start to distort or get unclear at higher volumes. Obviously inexpensive speakers and neither is bad, but don’t like. I think a Klipsch at this price point. Even if they’re forward sounding or boosted treble.

i use 3x RB42C for a 3.1 setup. i love it.

I got 3 of these brand new off mercari for 25.00 bucks 5 months ago. Sounds pretty damn good. One flaw that I haven’t experienced ( But heard) if you bend the cable too much, it will eventually cause the sac to stop working. So I use mine on my iPhone 13 Pro Max with one of those cell phone rubber net things, so it sits completely flat on the back of my phone. Oh, and you probably already know by now, that’s the hole isn’t a mic, but the led light for the sound quality.

Sony's sound much cleaner. Quite impressive.

The volume control range is what it is to accommodate sources with high and low output. Complaining about distortion when you use a high output source and turn the volume up to the max is ridiculous. How would you feel if you had a low output source and could not get full volume? That would be something to complain about.

Bel suono per quello che si può sentire dal cellulare complimenti

can anyone recommend a good and cheap LEARNING remote. I have a device that has 2 IR commands I would like it to work for for a backup remote.

wich one is sounding ? please be more clear, include on screen markers or something, thanks

Bonjour de la France............ excellente vidéo, excellent travail......... merci

The CS5 are about 450€ a pair in Germany at this time (Mai `24).

She said, "Ay you ex mode." So maybe it's something in a different language.

Research the product on the website and learn the product before outputting a video. This device outputs 32-bit/384KHz

If you like these, get an S9000ES. The build and sound quality is on another level entirely.

i dont think my tweeters work ...

Some statements you made about the copper,why Sony choose for copper,give me the impression,you should first do your homework,the DVP S7700 ES is a high quality device with an audio sound quality which equals easy to Accuphase

This is stupid tv not a monitor

3:44 guess again! The USB cable is $45 friggin bucks. Robbery.

Sold I would imagine is that correct

Careful you turn up to loud they will roll away

Thanks! I got a pair today for $12 at a thrift store. Edit: The rubber surrounds are key. I have a pair of Pinnacle 8+ speakers and Focal speakers, all rubber. Foam can crumble over the years.

Hey I just got a pair of ss-u601av and just started the process of trying to improve them as well . The model I have has dual 12 inch woofers soft done tweeter and the mid is the same as yours I got rubber surrounds for the woofers though just the mid drive is going to be replaced.

Can you recommend where to buy replacement parts for these?

Is that a blue tongue? Long way from home.

All type of music should have been used to get the clear difference.

How do you add 12v triggers to this for my AVR to auto turn it on

WARNING, Dont buy these speakers u wil regret it!

would you happen to know of a way to disconnect that stupid light?

Try Birch next time in a darker stain!

I had AR5s for years. In spite of upgrades to more esoteric speakers, those were my favourites. Gave them to my brother, surrounds perished after time.

I’m guilty too but you should pay more attention to your kid

Nice comparison 👏 I have the CS-5,s Imho the high end is better with the sony,s. I run a subwoofer with mine .Both pushed through a 200 watt tube amp. I paid $70 for mine .
