Sirius Specifications

jwjensen356 · 08-15-2003, 06:01 PM

Does anyone know what the basic audio response specs for Sirius are
(??Hz to ??KHz), +/- ?.? dB)? In both my units no mention of frequency range, etc. given. Any audio amp, preamp, CD player, etc. on the market provides such information.

By the way, I am new here, having had my Sirius car setup for only about 4 months and the home one for about one week. Love the service.

It can vary but assume 16 Hz to 16 kHz, depending on the channel. If they try to push the higher frequencies, the artifacts go nuts. The lower limit is probably 1 Hz, but below 16 or so, the wave becomes a series of pulses to the human ear.

I was told of an experiment of a frequency of 5 Hz being played near a cow, the frequency killed the cow, the organs were all misplaced by the low frequency... Just a quick, baseless, yet humorous? statement.

I wouldn't call it bassless... HAHAHAHA... sorry...

Nor would I call it funny if I were the cow. In fact, I would be udderly pissed. I shouldn't joke about such a grave matter, though.

And that's bovine!

Tesla discovered a frequency which induces earthquakes. His personal papers were seized when he died and remain classified to this day.

hmmm... man made earthquakes...

There was a movie about it called "The Core". What I have heard, it's about the government making a device that can make earthquakes.

They use it too many times and now the earth is going crazy. To fix it, they have to go to the core of the earth and set up some explosion.

I never saw the movie because it sounds like a stupid movie.

Tesla was a brilliant man, and I'm not sure the public will know many of the things he discovered for many years to come.
