Here are some photos of Martin Sedon's 204Hz and 340Hz Le Cleac'h horns, which likely have more reasonable shipping charges and fit through doorways, etc. better than the 160Hz version. They have a T-factor (expansion rate) of T = 0.8, which was reco...

Hi there
I can see Romy's face when he's trying to figure out Martin's time alignment strategy;0) I have Martin's 204 Hz horn with Fostex 208 E Sig. These horns are to be big to properly integrate with anything. They are OK with Fostex Lowther drive...

KlausMartin (Azura horn ) is making for me extension to 2.75" (BC 8p21)and 1.4" for 204 Hz (altec 288c) .He also developed 550 hz horn for S2 . He understands importance of smooth driver -throat transition . It would be ready to go solution for...

Wojtek,Can you tell us the size of the 204hz Azurahorn?I am pretty sure that the 550hz horn is around 15" in diameter. AH-425 is the model number. Please correct me if I am wrong....

RomyIt's topical to ask, since I'm building a 4-way system at the moment ..( Tapped horn behind and three-way horn system in front )Do you favour the tweeter horn to be placed at the top, above the mid/HF horn , or in this situation place the tweeter...

Thanks Romy.Sounds like tweeter on top will be best approach in my situation.The room is a good size and shape - 23ft x 15ft with 9ft ceiling . Plenty of room above.As you say the 288 on Azura does go to 12-13k OK with some beaming - almost enough re...

but I'm not going to compete with "S2 people " Following recommendation of John Hasquin I ordered B&C 21EP8 -16 . I'm cured form Fane for a time being and don't have S2 but "obsolete " altec 288c 24 Ohm on 400Hz horn . I was counting ...

HI AllFirst post :-)I am reserching a 3 or 4 way horn build and the Fane driver interests me. It looks like Fane have the 8MN available now.http://www.fane-acoustics.com/prod_details.aspx?pid=281How does this driver compare to the 8mn? I will look at...

Me again..In my search for another jbl 2482 I chanced upon a Yamaha JA6601 Driver. http://picasaweb.google.com/jbjbjbjbjb/YamahaJA6601It looks very similar to the one that produces these amazing response plots on the Azura 204 horn.http://www.azuraho...

have all the info ,with gallery pictures , trade secrets (how to roll on your own),pricess etc. Azura AH204 dia is ~31.5" and default depth for 8" driver ~12.75" .With 1.4" it will probably be close to 30" . Le Cleach flare is quite a bit bigge...

Romy.Have been reading various threads to glean information on tweeter options. I read with enthusiasm your experiences with the RAAL teardrop tweeter until I saw the price, then had to change my plans.Your brief comments on the T90A ( affordable in ...

Since I occasionally listen To K &K rakk dac unit and like it quite a bit I was looking at their phono stage for a long time. This phono stage is a little scaled down (in PSU) version of ART Audio Vinyl One unit which is very well regarded. Kevin...

[quote user="IslandPink"]Do you favour the tweeter horn to be placed at the top, above the mid/HF horn , or in this situation place the tweeter between the bass/mid horn and the Mid/HF horn ?
To clarify -Bass/mid is a rectangular Tractrix with...

By "flat ended", I assume you mean how the mouths of his current 650Hz and older 300Hz horns have flat edges, rather than even more gently rounded ones?
From memeory and a photo, Bruce's current 350Hz appears to be 'slightly' more rounded at the fro...

Hi Guy, The Oracle seems like a nice solution - I saw you write up on Peter Empson's forum. They seem compact enough for my requirements. How do you handle time-alignment with the mid-range? Or is this not a problem? To be honest with you I'm not exp...

Romy,
I'm also very interested in how you deal with a replacement for the 811b horn. I have not seen another hobbyist who has posted a suitable alternative with measurements. Its possible that the Azura horn recommended in the th...
