Back to the subject of this thread!
I heard some rendition of Dr Edgar's gigantic monsters at the Montreal
show this year (2006) running with Modwright electronics, some 16 wpc
tube amplification (possibly SET). There was in that room also...

Hi Romy - Yes, the sub is Bruce's seismic. It is big as a refrigerator, and the idea of having 2 huge boxes in this little room is, well, intriguing.... Being new to subs, isn't there an obvious danger of over loading this little room wit...

[quote user="jweiss"] It was good to finally meet you at CES at the Cogent Room. I guess that you really found Steve and Rich's drivers pretty interesting (you initially wanted to buy a pair of the midrange drivers, remember?) [/quote]
Hi, Jonathan....

Adrian,
If you are still in MF frustrations then I have something that you might find interesting. Recently I pick up in UK a pair of Vitavox S3 drivers. They out to be with original metal cones. I do not need them but the price was too good to let ...

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...

[quote user="skushino"] Being new to subs, isn't there an obvious danger of over loading this little room with too much bass energy? [/quote]Where did you get this bogus notion? What does it mean: “loading this little room with too much bass energy”....

My current speakers are Edgarhorns with the straight 80hz upper-bass shell. The bass never sounded correct to me. The problems with Edgar's mid-bass are well documented at this site and elsewhere. I tried some simple modifications to the crossover...

I though this would be answered elsewhere (AA) but Bruce Edgar did not reply. This question is important for me, maybe someone can help.When running an impedance sweep on the Edgar 80Hz horn some serious bumps showed up. (I ran the sweep because it s...

After living for a few years with Edgar 80Hz straight horns, I've had many urges to find a better sounding solution. I have a reason. Every time I turn them off and continue listening without them I notice that something good happens to the sound. It...

Bruce Edgar, the founder and designer of California-based EdgarHorn Loudspeakers, recently announced that he discovered a new relationship between his business plan and rules of physics. According to Bruce: “The physics of sound reproduction th...

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...

Hi Paul,The Cogent diaphragm I have seen pictures of was woven carbon fiber with a leather outer surround. I have never listened to a Cogent 1428 but they must sound very good, at least Bill Woods and Bruce Edgar say so.Besides their overall ultra cl...

I do not know why but as I listen to the 80hz Edgar horns more and more driven by the Dynaco tube amp I begin to really like the sound. Even in their untouched form there is some righteousness to the sound. I almost do not hear any serious deficienci...

I have heard several Tannoy speakers in the past, but have never heard the quality of sound Romy has obtained with his brain child. I don't know whether it is the speakers alone or his setup which has allowed his system to enthrall so much more than ...

I've had a long-time desire to replace my Edgar 80hz midbass shells with a better performing solution. My Edgarhorns arrived in 2005, and I made incremental improvements over the years until now they have little in common with the original Edgarhorn...

I got this new midbass horn to replace the Edgar 80Hz straight horn. It is made by Funktion-One and they claim it plays down to 90hz. I could not get it to play below 120Hz and I am trying to figure out why.Pictures are:mouth measurements with no fil...

Romy, Is there a consistent effect from too large/too small and how is it analyzed? Working on a new horn that I had turned by a fellow in Hungary and have made my back chamber so that I can easily manipulate the volume but have no idea of what to e...
