    Model 19 digital delay

    I've got a minidsp on my now bi-amped Model 19's. Anyone have a thought as to appropriate delay?
    thanks
    Les

    Re: Model 19 digital delay

    Essentially sound travels at approximately 1100 feet per second. Roughly 1.1 ft/millisecond. So you won't need a lot. My Valencias like 4 ms. which is more than I thought it would take.

    My tactic is to adjust for flattest response then vary it slightly and tune by ear. What sounds the best is what to use.

    Thanks Old Guy. Yeah, 4 ms sounds like a lot. I'm listening to it now. Jury is out.
    thanks again

    Hmm, something's not right, 4 ms is down in the mid-bass..........

    Flattest response was less but I didn't like the sound.

    Les

    I have a test signal on CD, when used with an O'Scope and a microphone you
    you can test the time delay of your high freqs vs the lows . Any interest ?

    Re: Model 19 digital delay

    Hi Les, have tested and measured with delay on the MiniDSP, haven't found much difference.

    Hi Les, I've tested with delay on the MiniDSP and could not measure a difference that made a change in the way it sounded.
