Also just dropped AUD$15 at the tip shop on this sick upgrade for my lounge system (and an hour to remove all the rattles and fix the door). Everything sounds better in a rack. A Lone Girl Flier fucked around with this message at 21:52 on Mar 2, 2018 |

TomR posted:A home theater, room treatment, serious audio discussion thread would be nice. It's so hard to sift through a place like AVS or get a straight answer from people who think you need four 18" subs to enjoy a movie. If KozmoNaut did an OP about it I'd contribute.

So I got some Tannoy HPD 315s, anyone have any experience with them? edit: mostly asking because I've heard a lot of audiophile woo about how great they supposedly are, and they do sound really good but I was wondering what specific properties they have that cause audiophiles to go nuts about them Bargearse fucked around with this message at 05:24 on Mar 3, 2018 |

Expect to spend money on them (roll surrounds if you can find them, and crossover caps) but they should be nice.

They seem to be a ported two way twelve, so spring for a replacement ribbon driver now, redo the crossover when you can, and they should be good for another 20 years.

Which probably in turn damaged the system. Yes, I can hear it now. The lack of sound space is evident. I'll give you $200 for the lot given the poor condition.
