Acme Science

I've written a lot of stuff over the years on the science of loudspeaker design. When Bass Player magazine gave our speakers such a wonderful review in 1996, I sort of had to re-prioritize. All of a sudden the business became very busy, a good thing, but writing about speaker design necessarily took a back seat to filling orders.

Right now, I'm feeling an urge to share some of this stuff. (I have a website that hasn't been updated in a very long time!) I'm choosing to share what was published, because it's the easiest to add to a website.


Should You Download Your Woofer?

There's been some buzz in the bass guitar community of late about this concept. As it happens, I gave this subject some thought some years ago, and learned about the advantages and disadvantages of using this tool. I believe this is the most in-depth analysis of the subject in print.

I think they paid me $235. Whoopee. But it's a niche market! Guaranteed to put most musicians to sleep. But here for your entertainment.

A Simple Phase Tester

A low-tech solution to a high-tech problem. Extremely nerdy, but it paid a little better.
