hey guys, i have some 14/4 on hand and i want to make a simple speaker cable out of it. which conductors should i be pairing for + and - for optimal noise rejection? the 14/4 is just a simple twist (think 4 conductors twisted around an imaginary core) and not braided like kimber should i use adjacent conductors or opposite conductors? the length is about 15-20ft thanks!
-
yeah, i have the SignalScope app by Faber Acoustical on the iphone 4 id assume the measurements are calibrated to the mic characteristics on the iphone? i play back a 20-20kHz sweep and find the graph looks pretty much like the factory measurements is there any way it could still be damaged though?
-
"moved"........ like shifted out of place? also do capacitors and resistors in crossovers look obvious when damaged (bulged out, blackened etc)?
-
but ideally id want to buy a multimeter and separate the drivers from the crossovers and take separate measurements of both and compare their readings to the manufacturer's nominal values nothing says reassurance like that eh? ;D

Im running the PSB imagine B bookshelves i've tried tone sweeping both channels independently of each other and they give comparable results to each other

the EQ was a +20dB boost in the 3-4kHz range, rolled off slightly at the extremities i dont hear a big difference, which is why im asking

anyone?

hey all, i suspect i may have damaged the drivers or crossovers in my speaker unit with an accidental and extremely aggressive 3-4kHz EQ boost (or it just may be my ears taking a long time to adjust back to normal, i cant tell which it is). is there any way to verify my suspicions using a multimeter? ex. (higher / lower) than factory (resistance / capacitance) for the (drivers / crossovers) are there any electrical / engineering gurus that can give me a few tips? *also, is a damaged speaker (driver / crossover) really obvious (either it works or not)? or is it possible for it to pass tone sweeps and normal music listening while being damaged at the same time? ex. suppose a new speaker has a symbolic threshold of 100 before it clips / blows / shows signs of problems and the damaged speakers has a threshold of 70. using it under 70 will still sound normal, but now it will take less power than usual for it to show problems Thanks!

Hey all, As the title says, i've been getting this intermittent sound artifact mixed into my audio output at random. The best way i can describe it is "tinny, metallic buzzing noise" It occurs at random (time and duration) and usually goes away after a while (also at random) Is this a sign of a dying motherboard (i use the integrated audio chips onboard)? Or is this a sign of damaged speakers / amplifier? A link to a sound clip of the issue Playing: buzz.mp3 - picosong Thanks in advance!

Does anybody have Logitech Z-5500 speakers?
chaosrealm93 replied to enner100's topic in Headphones & Speakers
the z5500 comes with a control pod. the sub setting should be in there somewhere. given its second hand, it might be worthwhile just to reset all the tonal controls while you're at it -

as in create a single flac/lossless image of the CD with no breaks? sure, if forum rules allow and copyright and DMCA type obstacles are not a problem
