Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Von Schweikert Ultra.7 Loudspeaker & Aris Subwoofer | Robert Harley Previews
Q: Tell us about those fundamental design principles that he developed back then, 50 years ago, and how they're incorporated into the modern Von Schweickert products.
Damon describes his father's goal of having a loudspeaker inversely decode what a microphone encodes, leading to experiments with spherical wave launch. The design lineage also includes a rear tweeter to shape the speaker's room response and soundstage.
Von Schweikert Ultra.7 Loudspeaker & Aris Subwoofer | Robert Harley Previews
Q: So, Damon, tell us, give us an overview of the Ultra.7, where it is in the line and what the concept is of the Ultra.7.
Damon says the Ultra.7 belongs to the flagship line and brings technologies from the larger flagship models into a form factor suited to a range of room sizes. Aris 12 subwoofers can be added for extra low-frequency support.
Silent Angel Extreme Trio Stack Review
Q: Nice to see you again. So first, let's start with your background. How did you get involved in this on the digital side of things?
Eric explains Silent Angel's origins in Taiwan (2014), the progression from Zero MK5 to a music server and then to audiophile switches, and how the NX switch, GX clock, and FX power supply fit into the Extreme Trio.
Best Speakers Series: Wilson Sasha V Revisited
Q: What thoughts do you have about the Sasha V since your review?
Alan expressed that time alignment is a significant factor in the speaker's performance and encourages experiencing it in a demo setting to appreciate its effects.
Alsyvox Michaelangelo Preview and Interview
Q: Could you tell us a little bit about how ribbon loudspeakers work?
