Hi
now the resonance to my initiative is not all that welcoming. ;) But
any way. I have learnt something about test cds and burning in cables
again. That is good. I actually wanted to give a short report about
what happened when I played my little test file for I was actually
searching for a way to check my hearing and system and didn't have an
audio test cd handy...
MY amp was at -99db and I could still hear the sound playing. I didn't
hear the clipping I had inserted into the file. At arround 15000hz my
sense of definitely hearing something vanished. :( I was a little
disapointed. However my cats started to jump at the door to the room
quite violently when the file played on. I girl friend had a sense of a
presure amounting on her ear drums. It was nice to see the vu meter of
transporter fall and that presure being lifted again when the minute
was over.
Now I some questions:
1. My Dali speakers are rated for 27khz +-3db. They have a ribbon high
tone module. Is this spec being realistic? Will copper cables or
anything in the signal path block such high frequencies and how big is
the risk of destroying speakers with such tests when they are actually
specified for such frequencies?
2. By 0db we mean the signal as is without softer or louder
reproduction? Caus my normal listening range is far below 0 db. When I
turn my amp to about 0db my ears would just give me pain.
