how to avoid clipping with multiple sources?[0404]

exergy — Sun, 16 Jul 2006 02:43:22 +0800

while we can control the output volume of our music players to avoid clipping [a fairly simple task with patchmix], im curious how do we do it to ensure ALL our sources do not clip?

ive *just* realised that my games have been clipping all along. i was already getting sick of having to tone down [and up] everytime i watched a movie, now games?!

do i have to lower the volume of EACH AND EVERY single game to ensure they do not clip?

i know that patchmix can be used to control the master output, but the clipping starts from the source; or will controlling the master output on patchmix do the trick?

thanks a mil!

of handphone waves & speaker disturbances

exergy — Sun, 21 May 2006 00:04:01 +0800

im sure most [if not all] of you are aware of this phenomenon, speakers are 'disturbed' when you recieve or make a call/sms. my question is: by what?

are the EM waves affecting the driver's magnet or are they affecting the currents on a cable?

it also seems that not all systems are affected by this. i can put an HP next to my gigaworks' sat [or sub, where the amp is located] and nothing happens. why is this?

Hifi pricing in Msia after taxes, shipping,etc?

exergy — Mon, 20 Mar 2006 03:16:24 +0800

hello, does anyone here know what is the price increase subjected on hifi equipment after taxes, shipping and the likes?

for computer components, i can do a rough x4 [for the prices listed in USD] and get a fairly accurate picture of what it might cost here. but i know this cant be done with hifi stuff because they go through taxes, price increases from shops and transport.

thus my question: what is the price increase subjected on hifi equipment in malaysia?
