Electronluv,

I decided do not spoil the “Who built horn” thread what juts was an announcement of availability of different horn boulders. I also did not want to continue the following thread:

http://www.romythecat.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?postID=2653

as it was not as much about your installation but rather about the Srajan’s ignorance experiencing and assessing of horn systems. So, I am starting this thread that is solely dedicated to your installation.

I have a few questions to ask if you do not mind:

1)     Did you experiment with surface of the horns and a negative contribution of smooth surface to Sound?

2)     Since your drivers are closed then how do you vent/cool the magnetizing coils of your electromagnetic drivers?

3)     Do you care to share more information about your drivers, at least what diaphragms and suspension you use?

4)     Were the driver of your own design if you use some other know driver as an inspiration?

5)     How do you time-alignment of your channels, if you do?

6)     Can you tell what cut offs, sloops and what horn rates in your channels of your 6-way system? 

7)     Did you measure if the throat reactance of your midbass channel change when you position you MF horn?

8)     Did you detect the problems with horizontal plane offset between you two narrow-band and presumably high-slope HF drivers?

9)     Did you try to position your drivers vertically?

10)   Do bass driver use a phase plugs?

11)   I see you use a powerful transmission tube with 500W-1000W plate dissipation. Do you find it is necessary to drive your drivers with that amount if power?

12)   The Acapella ion tweeter that Srajan Ebaen was trying to plug into his “review”…. Are you over with them of Srajan brought up in your room just for sake of pictures because they are photogenic?

Rgs, the Cat
