Hi everybody,

A while ago I had the privilege of premiering Danley products in a Dutch theatrical production. This was such an interesting experience that I decided to write an extensive case study (link below) where I provide full disclosure on the entire event from concept to realization.

Regards,

Merlijn van Veen

Thanks for taking the time to post your study Merlijn. I've been using SH96HO's for just over a year now in an indoor venue.
I have to agree that the coverage in the room is very even in level and tone. I also have SM80s and SM LPM's and they also have very even coverage. I suspect all their speakers do that.
I got settings a year ago and I'll check tomorrow, but I think mine are a little different than the ones you posted.
The delay times are different and I only have one band delayed. I don't understand why both hi and lows are delayed.
I found the factory settings I got to be a little harsh and have played with them a bit.
Did you notice the detail in the sound? It's so nice not to have to crank things to hear them.

Very often the mains need to be delayed to match up with the subs-hence the additional alignment.

Not every case needs additional delay-and of course different setups will require different delays.

I didn't think the lo delay was to match the subs. If that's the case then that explains the hi delay.
I didn't think you would have known where he was placing the subs.

The preset I sent him was for a SH96HO sitting on top of TH118s that are crossover over between them-and not having the subs on an aux.

If the subs or tops physically move or the crossover point on either the subs or tops change-then the delay would change.  Either longer or shorter.

That's the tricky part. I really need to get a Smaart type system.

Getting a measurement system is the EASY part.

THe "tricky" part is learning what it is telling you, and what to do about it-IF you can. Even more important is knowing what you CAN'T do anything about.

Dear Merlijn van Veen

Welcome to the world of imperial measurements. Normally it's us who get stuck with the metric stuff. I get where your coming from but chuckled a little while thinking finally someone gets stuck in the other side of the pond with standard sizes. Most of the speaker manufacturers I use here in the U.S. use metric threaded hardware.

OT -- I, for one, would much rather have metric hardware to deal with than imperial hardware.  I've been known to replace SAE nut and bolt assemblies with metric versions so I don't have to carry two sets of tools and spare fasteners. M6, M8, and M10 makes things pretty easy.
