Aura made their 1808 driver in 80s and most of the 90s and it was wonderful. It had huge high-temperature neodymium magnet, unique magnet geometry with underhung 4" edgewound aluminum voice coil. It was the only 18-inch...

I will be dubiuos about the slanted enclosure if not done properly, all drivers must be time aligned and since they are playing the same frequency, deficiencies in time alignment become more obvious. I made a slanted enclosure but with the drivers ...

The bottom woofer array is not connected at all....

When the passive radiator in question is mentioned, are we sill talking about a particular active 10" Scanspeak driver that is not hooked up to an amp? Again, the PR is always parasitic, more or less fighting with the active driver, except, apparentl...

[quote user="msaudio"]Romy You have not done your main test yet, And you are ready to get rid of your LF array's to soon or maybe you did it and did not post it or say anything about it. The way i would troulble shoot this problem is to a test refera...

Setting aside the small drivers for LF, while the rest of us have been all ga-ga about the vertical array, the pros have long since moved to the "horizotal array" for LF. Although I plan for several large drivers in large "modified IB" cabinets, I t...

Rakesh, I moved your post to this thread as I feel it is more relevant here, I hope you do not mind. You ask yours the very same question that I ask myself. I do not have definitive answers to them:

[quote user="kodomo"]I am using sealed bass arrays of 3 per side. I have six 10" scanspeak woofers in total. I aim to operate them from 38hz to 160hz with qtc 0.707I also have a tapped horn that I am using with my current horn system. It is 244cm's h...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Consider treating the problem at its root.Why not build a simple dedicated PC, running Server 2008 with a RAID array? I recently added a RAID 10 array (8TB, striped and mirrored), to an HP workstation... The result is fa...

Re-reading, I realise you stated your preference for a sealed bass array only in relation to Dreyer's bass horn, not to bass horns in general....

when talking ulf are we talking array of aura 18(the old ones not new junk), or something else...

Hi Gera"Has anyone done this and what were the observations of comparing different topologies."I have done just what you propose, I tried the JBL2490 compresion driver with a 3" mouth in a 110 hz horn well made, MDF round tactrix horn, it goes ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Below a certain frequency the advantages become a handicap. At that point (if you were using its EQ capabilities), the SMS -1 would start to step in... Whether you reach that point with your 10" arrays depends on how low ...

I was listening last night a string quartet rehearsal. The play was for the most part justifiably non-so-glorious and I was thinking about my little audio things. For sure our upper MF drivers nowhere near where they need to be. There is too much...
|
There are a few at least theoretical backdraws for the Array in my view.Of course having a lot of different drivers playing at the same frequency implies that all of them should work in perfect unison, if one starts lagging a little bit it will mess...
|
Hi Murat,Personally, I would re-think the tapped horns being physically incorporated with the rest of the system. To start, from what I understand (I don't use a tapped horn) because they use both the front and the rear of the driver for sound, they...

Well, my baffles are for a vertical array. A friend of mine built a "clone" of the Nola Grand reference and got a very good deal on the G1 ribbons... will send you a PM.Don't be pissed about me keeping you in the dark regarding the ribbons; you...
|
Yep, indeed, it looks very nice. The 8 sections of bass line
array look visually slightly overweening but I think when you put the upper
bass horns in place it will visually balance the things out. I feel some sort
of envy to the way how you plan ...

[quote user="Paul S"] I am glad to hear that I am not the only one who is overwhelmed by compression drivers. I tried the A7s way back when they were current and everyone's favorite, and I tried various modifications with like-minded friends; b...
|
Here is my proposal for an ideal horn system. The concept derives from the really of the horns as I know them, the available park of the drivers, the drivers’ real capacity and from… everything else that I might comment upon if you would not figure o...

The kids are growing up and twins sleep fine and walk already.
So, the Bessnow’s household is calming down, a live-in nanny for sure helps…
With more time at my heads I am trying to finalize my playback in our new home.
I spent a few hours today t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Last night I did an interesting experiment. I took the bass towers,
just 4 driver per side, crossed them at 90Hz, line-level and drove them not
with the Milq’s bass channel but with SS Yamaha B2. I use it with the tube cr...
|
Today I spent a few hours to calibrate the Macondo and Milq.
One of the drivers from Macondo was gunner and the rest was more of less stable.
I did some initial measurements. It was not impressive. I do have approximately
3-4 db deficiency on left...

A happy new year to all,,,,Your electricle mains box is most impressive,,But keep your fingers out of there..Or you will have a "short" year...I love the JBL Array 1400 Hard to beat,,unless you have EverestII.....

Dear Antonio, there is a picture of the Sansui FA-7 antenna in the TU-X1 brochure and it definitely looks like it is a small external antenna designed for use in high density accommodation. I did not try this antenna. In m...

I feel like i want a line array of lowThers with random graininess applied to their paper membrane as my oops channel! I would want the strings to have the texture of aged beef when it is cooked "aller/retour" (french alwys use food metaphors.).Serio...

Another bogus idea.If a perfect upper bass could be achieved by means of spherical (approx. 1m diameter horn), what would be the next acceptable solution,if space considerations do not allow big horns? Perhaps that could be a line array of small dire...

I heard the Array 1400 at a show: https://www.neomax.ro/produs.php?id=P:5737-S:336It has the aluminum diaphragm rather than beryllium.The demo music sounded very nice. Effortless and beautiful.The midrange tended to spit and shout a bit though, like ...
