Please, have some fun. First download the white paper to see what the patent artists came up with. It is essentially correct but not to scale.
Note that it requires 18 offset sets of blocks around the periphery of a cone. About two degrees of space ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I very much do not want to sound like I am expressing sarcasm. [/quote] Romy, I don’t treat your comments like expressed sarcasm and I never did it. In my view, your site is the only place in Internet, where fruitful discus...

Two weeks ago when I realized that something was wrong with my Shelter I asked a guy that I know “How people buy cartridges nowadays?” He said “They talk a lot with other people”. “I will not do it”, was my reply. Well, not two weeks after I ha...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]1) High electrostatic or whatever other reason make the cartridge very prone to collect dust.
2) Exceedingly hard-reading with slightly overly prominent leading-edges of the phases. This demands VERY high quality...

My first impressions a about the “differences” of field-coiled derived form the time when I ran the Telefunkens war time drivers but at that time I had no reference how the same driver would act with permanent magnet. Also, the Telefunkens are the re...

After much research I found the radio that I like. The decision was base mostly on the esthetic: size, color etc, sure I was conserving the circuit but only up to point. The choose when for German Schaub & Lorenz Goldsuper W42. It is 1957 ra...

Anthony, I grounded in my
amp it in order the shield was not hanging there free. You certainly must NOT
leave it disconnected and you do need to tie to something. Generally biasing of
these electrostatic fields shields is very murky territory. The...
|
I think it is a perfectly legitimate amp. The
claim of bandwidth is obviously a marketing BS. Also, I am a bit skeptical of if
a pair of 6N6P might deliver significant current to drive GM100 in
negative side curve and deal with plate current. They...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]I don't know to what extent they've tried to apply the Naturflux thinking to the Field Coil circuit. It would not surprise me if that was much more difficult to do. It may have made the costs far too high. I don't know. [/q...

Hi Romy, hi folksMy intro hello and first post, i just had to sign up. Just found the platform through googlin some hornstuff and came back too often.Especially the resonating oops was the latest topic that really cought my attention as im familar, a...

[quote user="morricab"]Well Romy, IMO they are not just tonally different they are more tonally correct, ie. they simply have less coloration than other technologies. Just listen to a recording sometime made with a ribbon microphone and you wil...

It’s been a while since I visited face to face with my World-traveling
friend, Mark. He came by yesterday, and we talked and also listened to Music
via my MA-9S2s and The Loudspeakers. It was all LP playback. Mark has had his
own giant hi-fi syste...

Made first sounds with my Dannoy incarnation. Hard to comment on it now as my setup turns out to have some problems:
1. I haven't bypassed the B2's input circuits yet. And they do kill the sound - one slight move of one of the p...

The KOSS Electrostatic unit was still installed , so I removed and checked resonance .The resonance was 136 HZ. I then tested it in horn assembly and the result was the same : 136...

I would agree that the Lowther is not hard to beat but the question is where and in whose mind does this competition exist? Is the Lowther, Manger, or other full range single driver in competition with different multi-driver approaches, other single ...

Well Romy, IMO they are not just tonally different they are more
tonally correct, ie. they simply have less coloration than other
technologies. Just listen to a recording sometime made with a
ribbon microphone and you will understand what I ...

From a technological perspective, these look very interesting. Unfortunately the nearest place i could audition these is Montreal, but it looks to be worth it. Have you heard these, Romy, or are you also impressed with the price/technology ratio?

A site visitor pointed me out the I never made an intended write up about the David Haigner horns. I just forgot about them… OK, let analyze David’s claims and his Alphahorn design. I would say right the way that I do not like the Alphahorn’s id...
