Welcome to the state of the lost virginity. In fact the expresses of the 98 percent of people worldwide are irrelevant as if you know how time-misaligned sound horns then you would automatically discard whatever the 98% of morons out there do or say. BTW, I do not think that the alignment “only by ear” is right way to do the thing. You need to really know what you do and have a LOT of experience to play with alignment in order to do so. Still, you will get much better result with simple measurement, confirming the correctness of alignment by ears

Romy:

would you please clarify for the benefit of an un-tech-head - yours truly - "what" to use and "how" to use whatever to measure and finely tune and time-align, without loosing eons, a tailored, movable horn system? I mean, a simple technique and gears list to obtain a mS difference meaurement among drivers with pink noise or... can't REALLY figure how to operate...

... re. my knowledge concerning "how to do" a by-ear tuning, I try well known single instrument recordings, then to more complex and textured recordings... then random listenings for an average correct rendition of different music.

If I enjoy a given result also the day after as I did the day before, I go ahead...

Re. pixes... I'd already post, not as an hedonist act, but to properly and better explain myself, BUT I'm still at "cheap crating plywood" step also using whatever available, including several weird supports, on loans from friends - wooden tripods and the like... not yet ready for public eyes... but sure I'll do when ready...

In the meantime, will try a drawing in the next hours.

Thanks for any reply on my support request re. measuring...
