In Reply to: " lossy cabinets " ... could you please elaborate this a little ? posted by beppe61 on June 23, 2014 at 00:12:58:
In a nutshell, "lossy" is British term used to describe a specific type of cabinet construction. Lossy cabinets are less inert than some other types because they are designed to shed or release certain bands of vibrational energy as quickly as possible while allowing other bands to sort of blend in with the sound of the drivers. As part of the design philosophy, the interiors of lossy cabinets are usually treated with sound deadening materials so that cabinet resonances can be further "tuned" or controlled in a specific manner.Proponents of lossy cabinet design believe that since the audible traces produced by cabinet vibrations cannot be eliminated, they should at least be controlled in the most useful way possible, so that they might seem to be part of the musical presentation.
