Welll, you still did not express yourself what are the sonic verdure of DHT from your point of view. You are not obligated I juts proposed you to do it if you feel that have any observations on the subject.

[quote user="Paul S"] So I'm wondering how things are going for the bold explorers who forked over their expectations for a whack at the PP2000. Have the things turned out to be Plug and Play along with All That, or is this yet another case whe...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Sand damping it beautiful, it is well-recognized, but you do pay cost for it, in your case the cost is space. [/quote]I know that Romy… but without the massive amounts of sand, there are always some vibrations felt when I t...

A few year back a Russian audiologist A. Likhnitsky’s published a book “Sound Quality: New approach to testing of the home audio equipment”. (P&K, 1998) The book has many positive moments and altogether it was a wonderful attempt to bring i...

[quote user="ayebee"]I’m probably suggesting the obvious, but have you tried adjusting the crossover component values on the fundamentals and MF-channels? On the fundamentals-channel, increasing the inductor-value, and decreasing the cap, so that...

The really serious piano players I know either ignore it or buy a different piano. I have NEVER worked with a pianist that tried to make a piano something it currently wasn't. I think that when you are obcessed with your playing there are no syna...

I would like to pass some summarizing observations and some generalizations regarding the entire “Water Drop” project.
THE IDEA
The idea of trying to find a tweeter to compliment Macondo was a good idea. Many of you know that I was proudly declari...

[quote user="floobydust"] One of the reasons I no longer use a tube tester. They make a measurement at a specific target operating point(s). You don't really know what it is, so what are the chances they will be close to your actual circuit opera...

Anyhow, it is interesting how the new 25 users that get those Studio 8M will use them. I wish something “new” would derive from all of it…[/quote]Speaking only for myself, I am planning to use the Fane 8M in a pair of 11...

[quote user="scooter"]1. Please take a look around this site for some intelligence on how detrimental digital room correction is and why. Romy and Paul are being excessively polite today regarding DSP, perhaps because the weather is nice. I'll be mor...

In this thread I would like to talk a bit about the practice in DSET driven multi-way horns configuration.
I have expressed my view that the architectural configuration that Macondo and Super Melquiades end up to be I find is the most interest...

In terms of the length of the horn, I'm allowing myself a total height of 7'6" (just below the average ceiling height of 8'). In regards to the mouth diameter, that's another matter. (It appears that I will have to build two [2] different...

Today, I decided to measure input voltages that induce clipping in my operational DSET. I basically just put in place the appropriate load resistor, set the signal generator at a level in the middle of the bandpass and increased voltage until the si...

[quote user="hagtech"]First, it seems like the tubes are starved. They are running very low current. The 12AX7 is also at low voltage. I'm guessing they are running at about 0.3mA at 65V plate. This operating point is way down...

[quote user="Paul S"]Likely, the wider ribbons are less good for HF-only than a long, narrow ribbon, like the G3 and G3Si use. Across the board, the larger the ribbon gets (and the lower the ribbon is made to go), the worse ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Well, it might sound as a heresy to you, but I personally
consider the impedance curve is a bit irrelevant in this application. In this application
you need to care only about only 2 things: if you have enough power in yo...

[quote user="MINGSU"]I think most of reader get my point of the car examples. The main point is to follow the manufacture recommendation on how to use the driver. Of course, if you want to do something different, that is your choice but don't come ...

I went to see what Speedysteve7 does. I did not read the text. I just glanced at the text and seen the mentioning of multisampling with digital amps, mentioning of digital crossover. All of it and the most important the rock-end-roll crap the he ...
|
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...

[quote user="Morfeas"] Wouldn't comment because using a public forum for free advertisement is not my cup of tea. [/quote]

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] And Ok, maybe I don't have all the filters dialed in, and the DPOLS are like a dream to me now….[/quote]

Whoever implemented and experimented with my slicing of lower MF range by 3 channels (Upperbass, Fundamentals, and MF) know how powerful it might be. Changing loading and volume of each of the channels it is possible to write any sound one might ...

As I've said before, I consider myself a beginner. I'll try to bear that in mind as I write this, but it would be wrong to say that I have not amassed some experience on the subject. That experience would have me believe that most don't invest the ti...

Ok, how to start. First of all we have to understand that out subject of attention will be a region between approximately 80Hz and 500Hz or something that shape the fundamentals of the “melody range” within your playback. Search my site I have writte...

him to unlimit dynamics - in order to achieve the most live-alike sound. First

Romy,I know you know there is no such thing as perfection.My favorite quote is from S. Dali who warned, "never fear perfection, you won't achieve it". But in that statement are, at least, two messages.Nothing wrong in striving for perfection. Being...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
...this interesting point has no practical answer. First of all in the case of Rakesh horn what N-Set proposed is not necessary. Those 115Hz Hasqiun-style horns that Rakesh emulates are well dumped with own mass and own ...
