I chose the EdgarHorns for fairly simple reasons. I have listened to them and I loved the way they sound. They are not the perfect loudspeaker, but they make much truer music than what I have now. Also, the price I paid is less than...

I do not know it is just Triamp or 3-chenal DSET by the direction is good. The amp was mentioned by Twogoodears on his blog.

[quote user="DHT4ME"]So I am aasuming that you are referring the very low level capability of your driver or amps? The subtle nuances?What other drivers did you find did well beside the Vitavox. I always felt that most comperssion drivers are ...

I did not expect that it would be so much work with the new “fundamental channel”. The new 250Hz horns required some help to correct some problems, plus they have to be finished in a civilized fashion and color. However, the biggest problem is positi...

Yep, Stefano, it looks like we do have similar views about the subjects we touched. Let go back to exploring one of the terra incognito of compression driver – the sound of Goto.
The reason I ask is because no one talk a...

The system is still very much a work in progress, but I have come to the conclusion that the concept as such is very, very good. It's only up to me to make it sound as well as I know it is capable of. Making and fine-tuning the crossover might take m...

Herman,
I am not familiar with your driver and I do not know those horns. It looks like they are 200Hz horns through….
You shall not worry about your horns create any shadow. As I understand you use digital crossovers with your horns and if...

Thanks, Be, for a correction but the fun part is no one acknowledged your blander. The Goto drivers I think are exotic terra incognito for most people and I think it is how Goto Company is willing to keep it. No one talk about nuts and bolt of Goto c...

Hi, Touch.
I see what you are trying to do. However, I think that you have reached a point in your craziness when you need to stop using off the shelf accidental horn solutions. I feel you need to recompile your system as a custom installation that ...

Angelo, I have no interest to consult on purchasing decisions, at least in context of your type of questions. Also, the only way to ask me regarding “what would be better” is to describe what is currently wrong.

Someone at AA’ sewers posted his measurements of Edgarhorn system, supplemented with a subwoofer and Fostex Tweeter. I do not know the poster personally, most likely he is another AA’s advice seeker – means another idiot - and therefore it is ha...

[quote user="i_should_coco"]I view of the fact I have two pairs of S2 drivers, I'm intrigued by the thought of running them a la Romy, i.e. high and low. So, in addition to procuring a pair of Big Mama horns, I'm discussing with Martin the prospect o...

[quote user="Jim Smith"]I've been following this line (mostly the big one) with great interest since it was first mentioned.It's definitely the most interesting high-efficiency horn line available, as far as I can see. I've been asked to look a...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I've been listening for about one week now with the filters set so the hand off from lower-mid to upper-mid happens higher up (upper-mid S2 is high-passed at 4800Hz instead of 3200Hz), meaning the small 400Hz horn is doing...

[quote user="KS"]Thats the kind of stuff I was hoping for. I appreciate the help with this, there seems to be a scarcity of horn related discussion on the web and its proving hard to learn the ropes.One other unrelated question that could save me a l...

[quote user="twogoodears"]Yes, maybe the 120 db/octave is THE trick for complex multi-ways systems of highest resolution, yet this barbaric:-) slope can ONLY be achieved by digital domain crossovering... unfortunately, as a satisfied user of TacT RCS...

Interesting, thanks Guy for posting.
Let analyze what was done in there. It looks like well-thought, time-aligned, looks like multi-amped configuration. BTW, how the filters were implemented and what (slope/order) filters were?
To my knowle...

Hm, this is what I am playing how: the new 18-cell and S3. I run it from a full time Milq and use it with no filter of any kid. Rony is right the depth effect is there, it is not even depth but rather multi-dimensionality. Indeed very pleasant feelin...

Well, it sound what you like to do, which is fine
and I am sure that it will produce some kind of sound. It is hard to say if it
will be the sound you want as I do not know what you want. I presume you do. I am not sure what was the purpose of pos...

Great project! I have a similar project going on. Your frame ideas are looking beautiful, however I decided to take a more utilitarian road. I can adjust all my channels in horizontal or vertical axis. I am finishing my crossovers as of these days, a...

Today I had a promising experience. Bill is keep experimenting with his Dannoys and I was visiting him to see what's going on there, since I am still waiting for my panels and I can experience the Dannoy foreplay only valceruasly. We did a very usefu...

Thanks, jtavan.
It was educational. I made some first steps already. I made a slow 233MHz (and presumable it would have lower noise with lower speed) machine with no fans, and a large passive radiator on SPU. Formatted it and loaded Win2K Pro St4. S...

Prior to three days ago, i was almost ready to give up on the Dannoy's as I couldn't get close to the sound heard at Romy's with his setup of the same speakers. Then i was able to add my newly obtained Yamaha B2 amps, and was once m...
