Herman,
What you describe is fine. Over the course of last years I had a number of people who report identical things to what you do. Even if you change volume of back chamber and move resonance frequency then sound will change but it most lik...

Of all the manufacturers you could be poking fun at you've chosen two who actually care about what they make and sell. Whenever I encounter Bruce Edgar he always strikes me as a courteous and serious guy trying to offer value for money, high performa...

So first in line, the horns. They stressed out that particularly the horn flares where not within the comfort zone of their own developer team.That triggered the recruitment of Bruce Edgar. The design is only his, and they took it 1:1. Of course too...

Hey Romy, this is Jacky from ESD and I happened to find this site. I'm really glad that you guys are interested in our products, but there seems to be some misunderstanding about Sam and Bruce, so I just registered to clarify a bit.
Yes, Dr. Bruce E...

Ok, so imagine I'm someone living in the US with a keen interest in playing my collection of CD's and LPs. I need some speakers priced between 5000 and 10000 dollars to go with my 25 watt tube amp. I won't buy Edgars because Bruce once said that bent...

Bruce Edgar room was probably the only rooms at the entire show where form my prospective it was possible to begin to talk about "pure audio", so I will.
Bruce picked and smartly holds at "The Show" a wondefull room, the small room, but fr...

Somebody from AA was asking about electromagnet. The subject pup up here from time to time but this time Bruce Edgar uploaded an interesting comment. Bruce is not a typical AA Moron and if he says “inaccurate things” then it is not due to ignoran...

Yes I have heard the sad news. over the course
of the last few months various people contacted me and told me that he did not
do good, he was in nursing home and his health was deteriorating. This all my

Romy,
Funny stuff... especially the the AN piece. Equally surprised octopodes ? Brilliant !
As for the Bruce Edgar post ? Not as funny. And it's off base.
The Titan II system has a straight axis upper bass horn instead of a folded upper bas...

Rakesh, I do not know a lot about the audio trivia. What I do know that in the world I live and I understand the tractrix curve introduced Bruce Edgar. I thought that tractrix curve was described by French. The tractrix curve is twisted and not strai...

I’m glad you talk about geometry, but to respond to this I have to refer to other brands. I will only talk about facts and hope it’s not offending anybody.My basic point is: the flare rate has to be coherent right from the entrance of phase plugs. In...

[quote user="rowuk"] If this is the best that your
engineers have to offer, you need better engineers. Bruce Edgar did far better
by himself without those engineers. [/quote] Rowuk, you raised two subjects that in my view worth to

Adrian,
This it truly complicated question. The Titans’ upperbass (the better one, curved, with 12” driver) is not realty HF capable and it makes a MF driver need to go all the way down to probably 500Hz (I do not know what Bruce dies in the crossov...

Indeed I am welcoming a newcomer to a horn world. It looks
like a Chinese company that makes me slightly to be withdrawn. So far I did not
see original Chinese production that did not cut corners or did not impersonalize
western product but in bad...

Jessie,
When I spoke that I would go most likely for exponential I did not mean the Exponential vs. Hyperbolic but rather that it would not be a Tractrix. I have no specific preferences for Exponential, Hyperbolic or any other long profiles. A commo...

The termination of the Bruce’ horns is funny to say at least. The red zone on the picture is completely bogusly unnecessary. I do not think that they hoe make horn for Bruce has any remote comprehension of what he does. Some of the Bruce horns that I...

A friend of my after reading my comments about the EdgarHorn installation in Vegas (in here) asked me why do I think the bass in Bruce’s room behave as it behaved. I tried to think about it. Some of those thoughts intersect with some other projects t...

Adrian, I had Edgarhorns that have evolved since I bought them in 2005. In my current set-up, nothing remains of the original Edgarhorns as conceived by Bruce, other than the speaker system remains front loaded horns. I noticed the same sense of he...
