I just found this thread and can comment on the Enabled DX4s. Limono (Wojtek) very gratiously loaned his Enabled 8 ohm Lowther DX4 drivers to me this past summer (summer of 2008). It took my a while to make the crossover for these (I have...

Good luck getting midrange from F120A for non annoying monitors. Seems reasonable to expect, many people have been very happy with these drivers... I haven't tried this specific driver, but have spent some time trying to get a simila...

[quote user="Wojtek"]I use regular Lowther DX4 (ENABLED) . I don't think the 250-400 is stellar and I'm still waiting for the extension to try small throat for lower midrange (2,75") (B&C 8P21E driver) for 200-1000Hz .[/quote]Look...

[quote user="Paul S"]I realize I will never get horn dynamics with direct radiators; and I still wonder … if anyone actually gets the Tone (without shaping) with horns.[/quote] I just do not know if “tone” has anything to do with anything. There is a...

Yes, too true about the proliferation of over-stuffed wine-bots. At least Parker is pretty consistent in terms of his descriptors and his personal preferences, and if he is directly on the take, I have yet to see/hear any such evidence. This ha...

I corrected a mistake in amps construction but the thing I cannot explain is that after I picked up the drivers from Retsel they were much mellower /smoother sounding .Did hummidity change or they finally "broked -in" I don't know. Report...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I didn't read the entire thread, but enough to get the gist...This guy admits he's tone deaf, but he's likely also a good fabricator, is not afraid of large-scale work and seems willing to listen. Doesn't that make him a p...

Sorry, Romy, I'm just bagging on you a little for caring/staying conected to Lamm...I hope you understand that I absolutely agree with your ideas about the "right" direction to go for the next viable step in audio *for those with the stones*. &n...

About 6 months ago I installed windows Home Server on an old PC. This is connected via wired network to my music PC in the music room. After a few teething troubles, it is now working flawlessly.I let foobar index all the music on WHS and use the 'Al...

You do make me laugh sometimes! You really do seem to have problems in seeing the merits in anything if it doesn't fully satisfy the very particular performance criteria you set. As a species such inflexibility wouldn't allow you to evolve very much ...

I just ran across this quote from Mr. Fremer, circa 1999, and I doubt much has changed on this front:"Sitting in my listening room auditioning this $3995 Premier 15 phono section from Conrad-Johnson—a process that I made sure went on for months!...

Wojtek, I am indeed hemmed in by the fricking electricity these days, to the extent that it is about impossible to hold on to a baseline for reference. And the Lowthers only make the problem more apparent.Yes, I still wonder about how I wo...

Interesting. Almost unanimously the people at the forum and in private emails advice me do not inform/educate Amy about the audio. I do share the hesitance people expressed and I do appreciate the warnings. I kind of inclined do not do it, well; I d...

I sincerely feel that all those conversations about space

Since I posted at “My playback” that I’m using Micro Seiki MAX 282 tonearm I begun to receive emails asking about it’s User Manual. I sent out 5 of 6 of them to whoever asked - I do not know why people need it but if it was what they wanted. The funn...

I set two multicells with LF-enabled S3 drivers. I set them on the outer side of Macondo MF. Playing with crossover, volume and towing of the multicells I was able to a degree to get the effect that would like to get. The pointing the multicell...

Well, when you read my site and since the majority of the context with this site is generated by me you might come across a “peculiar semantics and phonetics” while you read my posts. It is perfectly fine, you are not alone and sometimes I mysel...

[quote user="Paul S"]OK, Romy, that EnABL stuff got my attention!I can't recall all of the bad ideas borne of good research, but this EnABL thing sounds a little fishy, and certainly it sounds too good to be true, as existing in a simple and really u...

I always had a great gift of prophecy. When I saw W Bush for a first time I did not question what I have seen/herd and declared him as a retarget idiot. Good for us – the stupid Americans - that we allow this dirt to ruin our county for 2 terms. When...

I admit that regarding many subjects in audio I love to sound, to act or just to be a compulsive. However, I feel that my compulsiveness does make sense to me and ironically it does make sense, quite frequency, for some others (unless they are Morons...

Here is an article by Leonard Norwitz that I think some of you might find motivating. I do not know Mr. Norwitz but it sounds like dinked too mach Qvortrup’s coca-cola. Anyhow, although I do not agree with some (sometimes many) of the Mr. Norwitz’s c...
