Ron’s New System
- Thread starter Ron Resnick
- Start date
What speakers are you referring to?Information and amazing help in all sorts of endeavors, without Peter and Ians help on the ground in Boston i would not have dared buy my latest speakers. And without Davids help i would probably still be waiting to have them shipped. I know these kind gentlemen trough WBF only !
No, the opposite. The tilt is downwards. It is why I am questioning the curves. After 5kHz we see a -12dB octave slope. We need more information.
Martin Logan Statement E2, from a private seller in Boston. Peter and Ian went to the seller and inspected them for me !
Your curve looks quite flat…the slope is more gradual than recommended by B&K. I am assuming this is the room response not just on axis, or?
Both. The speakers are new-in-box, but they have been in storage for six years.

Tinka and I were honored to be treated to a gourmet meal last night prepared by Joseph Cali and Lori Lieberman at their home. Rune Skov and Anthony Chiarella also attended this amazing dinner.
During a listening session in Joe and Lori's home with Joe's amazing all-Gryphon system, I saw for the first time the acoustic products of Vicoustic. Vicoustic makes the Multifuser Wood 36 which targets the 2kHz to 5kHz frequency range.
The solid red line in the first image, and the red dot plot in the second image, suggest this product might be the right medicine for an elevated 2kHz to 5kHz anomaly.

Those look very promising! And they are wood not poly styrene which is very flammable and does not reflect as well.
i bet the evening was super fun. Greats folks!

Not at all. I just had bigger problems – real life problems – to deal with rather than worry about a mere hobby.
If the most traumatic or difficult thing one has to deal with in life is a delay on setting up speakers, then one is a very lucky audiophile.

Amazing how many times you have to remind people of this when they are yelling on an audio website. And I hope things have worked themselves out.
After all this time, work and money, I suggest you axe the tube traps and build 45 degree corners to at least hide them, or something like these:

They might be necessary evils, but keep the room classy. PS Audio's original room installation, IMHO, had classy corner traps a while back (YouTube videos available).
Just a thought.

Indeed, it is good to keep perspective. In the big picture, we are debating relatively trivial First World problems in audio here. Even though they can keep us dissatisfied, busy, restless etc.
It goes without saying. His shoes may be made of fine Italian, leather but you don't know what its like to you walk a mile in them. I hope you have emerged into the light and have smooth sailing form herein. Pardon the mixed metaphor.
I read his bass traps did not work if I recall.After all this time, work and money, I suggest you axe the tube traps and build 45 degree corners to at least hide them, or something like these:

The most difficult thing for some audiophiles is to worry about what visitors say on the forum after they listen to their system
