If she's resisting all this, then coming in under the radar might be a good idea. Sometimes, louder just creates more resistance as they try not to feel forced to do whatever. That's why we offer the option to lower the volume or use a low volume track. Might want to consider doing a gentle approach, and not using bluetooth speakers. Just the phone. Try lowering the volume 10% per cycle until you see something shift.
Will give it a try, it's a little tricky that way because the phone I use is an old iPhone 3 and its battery doesn't last all night. This is one of the reasons I use the bluetooth speaker because it has enough battery for about 14 hours. Also, when listening to normal frequency audio (100-18,000hz, 12 watts) it sounds LOTS better and gives a much fuller sound and projects very well. My more modern iPhone would also have to be plugged in all night in our sleeping area because it has a bad battery as well (iPhone 6). Do you think the speaker on an iPhone 3 is adequate?
Yes, it will work.
Quote:What exactly is the issue with bluetooth when it comes to the higher frequencies? What is the required frequency range for a speaker to use with the subs?
Part of it is that bluetooth is a wireless protocol for short range radio, and to achieve high bandwidth, they typically use compression of the audio. If they do, and whether or not the audio is being compressed in a lossy or lossless manner changes depending on the manufacturer, and is almost impossible to determine. If they're using lossy compression, they're also very likely stripping out the very low volume audio (kills masked subliminals) and stripping out the very high pitch audio (kills ultrasonic subliminals). To play ultrasonic, your speakers must be able to play at least standard CD quality audio, which ranges up to 20 kHz.
Quote:I would be VERY surprised if this setup isn't adequate since it worked marvelously with the DMSI and now is working wonderfully for ME on the AppSupp.
Even if the bluetooth is not damaging the audio, you have another factor to consider, which is volume. The probability is that even if the speakers have no volume control and simply plug into the phone, where you control the volume, that the speakers of the phone will not have the same range of volume, which means now you're working with volumes that your phone cannot reproduce, and which may be too loud for safe use as ultrasonic. Of course that would produce tinnitus and such, so it probably wouldn't go unnoticed.
Quote:I can figure a setup with the iPhone, but will have to set up a place to plug it in and so on that won't make my bedtime routine too cumbersome. With the bluetooth speaker I just turn it on and set it down on her side of the room.
Well, use what works.
