  • Re: 6500 anomaly

    Thanks! Curious about test lead resistance of ~0.5 Ohms (that's a lot!). Do you have to subtract that from Re to get the voice coil measurement or has DATS already done that? Also, with Le measu…

  • Re: Tweeter fun: Dayton plates

    What is the significance of Zmax resonant peak and ratio of Zmax/Zmin? RD0194 has the highest (worst?) at 4.1. SL2000 (3.1), SL2500 (2.1), SL3000 (2.5), RD0198 (1.8) and Dayton (1.4). Dayton has by f…

  • Re: Monitor 7B crossover upgrade questions

    One way useful life of electrolytic capacitors is determined is when DF has exceeded 3x initial acceptable tolerances. So 3% x 3 = 9%. That 10.85% above would then indicate useful life has been excee…

  • Re: Adding ballast to speaker stands

    Sand is said to help attenuate the vibration as heat from the friction of the quartz/silica grains rubbing against each other. Steel shot is more dense. Makes sense to do a combination for a speaker …

  • Re: 6500 anomaly

    So assuming they are both CCA wire of same resistivity, the L value for the Poke - Gefco would be 33% greater than L value for 6500. That also assumes 2 layers for both. If 3 layers for P - G, then i…
