For the Tweakers
Your Legacy loudspeaker is a true reference monitor designed to
reproduce all program material with an absolute minimum of
coloration. Occasionally we encounter a customer who simply has a
characteristic sound that he or she desires to achieve. Rather than
take on the close-minded position that this customer is wrong an
simply has one oar in the water, we would prefer to offer our
assistance.
We have found that the human ear is incredibly sensitive in the
range of 3 kHz. In fact, at some listening levels the ear is as much as
15 dB more sensitive than at neighboring frequencies.Therefore, a
peaky studio microphone may occasionally raise the hair on one’s
neck. (One needs only to listen to the Stereophile microphone test
CD to find out just how bad some microphones really are).
It seems that the presence band of 3 kHz to 8 kHz effectively
dictates the degree of forwardness, depth, detail, brightness, or
sweetness of a recording. Because of the sensitivity of this range, we
allow you one extra tweak.
If you wish to attenuate the energy in this range, simply contact
Legacy Audio and we will exchange or modify your dome drivers
with a resistor network that allows several soft steps of attenuation.
Another situation frequently encountered is the “one speaker in
the corner, the other speaker open to the dining room” syndrome.
Don’t panic, we build high quality passive resonance trap circuits that
will take the drone out of corner placements.These circuits may be
placed in series with the woofer section of your speaker and will not
effect your midrange of treble frequencies.
Even greater flexibility can be achieved with the Focus’ by
implementing the Steradian Environmental Processor (STEP One)
into your system..
