Not with music, Chess. Read my post. with voice, as in dialogue, get it.

Holes in the story. I don't have the time or energy to rebutt every point you made. Because I have learned here that you've got an agenda, and that's great, and no matter what I say are you gonna be convinced. The world according to Chess. Have a nice life, and I WILL let you get in the last word. Keep your head in the sand, my friend.

Tony, discussions can be neverending.
If you decide you no longer have the energy to rebutt a point, so be it.
I still have questions i would like to have answered.
They are still there if/when you feel up to it.
I actually have more questions now that you mentioned you heard this anomaly with dialogue and pink noise but never tested with music but i will just keep them to myself i guess.

...and to think, all of this started when I asked if anyone compared NHTs to Axioms. Wow, you guys have scared me so much I think I'm going to buy the new Def Tech BP7002s and corresponding center and surrounds when they come out next month.

hehe... Don't sweat it carolina.

I'm the boob that can't measure the anomoly that science says should be there. I am in the unfortune position of having equal SPL readings across my entire seating area.

Dammit, I KNOW there's a problem in there somewhere, I just can't hear it or measure it. That really ticks me off.


I've had mine for a week. I love them.

Wow!! How did I miss this fracas?
I noticed a loss of volume at about 45+ degrees, but who gives a turd if the VP150 loses some volume far off to the sides? I paid for mine so I sit right in front of it. The old lady and her cutie pie sister sit 5-10 degrees off axis. Anybody else in the room can go rent the disc and watch it at their place.
Sister-in-law is available by the way (not that it matters, since it seems like everyone here is either married or gay).

Damn straight. If you're sitting that far off axis when watching a movie, I really doubt you're that big of an audio/videophile anyway. Who the heck watches a movie 45 degrees off axis? I don't even do that at the movie theatre unless absolutely necessary.

My VP150 demonstrated timbre/ouput changes at 15 degrees. It has been suggested that perhaps there was some weird interaction between my room and the VP150. it's possible, I guess.
