Seriously, how does one "laser-tune" a speaker?]]>Aug 4th 2010 6:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Aug 4th 2010 6:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/
Well, it's questionable what value it has, but supposedly they use lasers to scan the shape of the speaker driver in order to pinpoint possible sources of distortion. Anyway, friends of mine rave about their PureFi Anywhere 2 iPod speakers, so hopefully these will be even better. I'm in the market for something anyway.]]>Aug 4th 2010 7:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Aug 6th 2010 11:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Aug 4th 2010 6:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/

One of the few devices that gets it right is the excellent looking and well built Sony ICF-C1IPMK2.

No, I don't have an affiliation with Sony, but we have one and while it doesn't offer the same sound quality at the Logitech no doubt does, some thought has been put into the design. It's a pleasure to use too.]]>Aug 4th 2010 7:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Aug 4th 2010 7:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.polkaudio.com/education/tech_article.php?id=25 - Different company, but one would assume the concept is the same. ]]>Aug 4th 2010 8:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Lets just hope they didn't make the speaker cones out of paper that breaks down in 5 years, Logitech is known for using paper cones. =P]]>Aug 4th 2010 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/
Anyway, I'm in the market for something new and got on my computer to search but went here first. Looks fantastic. I would love a comparison between this and a bose dock.

Since we're talking about Logitec, does anyone have anything positive to say about the Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker System?]]>Aug 4th 2010 10:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/Aug 4th 2010 1:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/

...with a current day configuration and it's fucking sold. I don't want one of these dock stereo's. I have an expensive stereo with an AUX input.

Laser interferometry. Celestion ditton used it in the 80's and the results were stupendous. ]]>Aug 22nd 2010 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/04/logitech-s715i-rechargeable-ipod-iphone-speaker-unleashes-next/
Bose really did try to go beyond physics saying that you do not need a low mass driver to accurately reproduce high frequencies.

Laser interferometry is used to ensure that your drivers are not physically distorting. You can also use it to calibrate cnc milling machines, or find welding faults, or for many types of testing.]]>Aug 22nd 2010 2:08AM
