Another pointless Mana debate

But isn't it JW's old system

Have to ask why, if it really was that good, Mr Watson was happy to sell it on don't you.

 

Well I know the speakers are, and possibly the TT, not sure about hte rest of it, JW could have given it to Bub, and still made money, the amount of endorsements it has generated.

Guru's eh, Santana had Sri Chinmoy, Neil Peart had Ayn Rand, James has JW

 

Yes Merlin. It's actually not really all that good, but we had you going, eh?

 

James Merlin can't really comment as he doesn't have his stuff long enough to remember if it was any good or not.

 

On the Eight Day, God remarked "Do these two ever give it a rest"

 

Only when you're not having a pop at Naim

 

Glad to see you talking sense James, now can we have that RT 60 measurement?

 

Morning Tom

 

What's a RT 60 measurement?

 

Good to see you

 

Googled it :-

Reverberation Time

This is the time it takes for an initial sound to decay in volume to a certain level. The technical definition of RT-60 or reverberation time is the time it takes a sound to decay 60dB or shrink to 1,000,000th of its initial impact or sound pressure level. RT-30 and RT-90 measurements are also used, albeit less frequently. It is important to preface this discussion by stating that reverberation time measurements were developed for large venues such as concert halls and churches. These venues have large and diffuse sound fields in the audience sitting areas. It is these diffuse sound fields that make up the context for critical RT-60 measurements.

 

How r u this fine morning sir?

 

Most of the time the answer is quite simple: pile up the cabs and make it so bloody loud (just avoiding feedback, by whatever means necessary) you can't hear a damn thing anyway.
Works for us...

 

No WM on the eighth day god said, better get Mana Naim and ATC can't have the Devil having a better more a ccurate system than me.

 

how big is Bub's pad and what's "The Devil" doing in a Cathedral ?

 

One of us has to. Have you sorted out the more bass/less bass conundrum?

 

Months ago James - if you need some help, just PM those distances I asked you for.

 

I don't need any help, Merlin. It's unfortunate that you are so far away. If you came over for a listen, I'm sure that you would understand what we are talking about.

FWIW, I've done a room sweep with a test tone CD that was left here one time. All seemed benign.

 

Hi AK,

thought this would be a good time/place to join; its about as much use as most of the threads to which I contribute on any forums.
