I was keep listening my Dutch-made SA8535 tweeter. There is a lot of deferent with this tweeter and I think it is a good time to pass my early observations about the tweeter Sound.
This driver is not a ribbon tweeter as the Stage Acompany frau...

I just posted yeastoday the post above and have got already a few emails asking about the “new” ways that I am planning to use S2. OK, let me to explain what is going on.
The default Vitavox S2 driver comes with thier default aluminum diaphragm with...

[quote user="Lx_"] The second sentence is my own conclusion. It was not my intention to imply that it is yours, sorry for the misunderstanding this may have caused. We both agree that PP can be sensitive to incoming AC. The context and circumstan...

Hello Macman,Nice horns, I like that you finished everything properly! I am getting tired of seeing piles of horns.I think the ringing you are getting from your midbass horn is that the throat reactance is not balanced. How did you calculate the ba...

[quote user="Kcct82"]On to other things... now that we've been using the GOTO SG505 for a while, the verdict is that it does not sound good below 290hz. [/quote]
As I understand you use the GOTO SG505 in 150Hz horn and report that it does not sound ...

OK, it took for a while but at this point I have nailed down all design aspects of the new 6-channels Super Milq, and particularly its input stage. I have listen and evaluated all solutions that will be implemented in there; selected, appraised and o...

I do not make any claims just inform about the LessLoss standing. I do not know how much BS in this and HOW they removed the “outer layer” of conductor from the pass but who knows… might be they are up to something… It is said that begin all thos...

Well, I decided it was time to start using some "proper" interconnects between the preamp and DSET's, ordered them and had them delivered. To date I had been using cheap interconnects from the local electronic shop (literally $6) which should be ok...

[quote user="Paul S"] Speakers: I built a version of Dick Olsher's 3-way Diamond Edition BassZilla (hard to find at www.blackdahlia.com), and I tricked it out considerably from his mule. Bass is BR, 15" Audax P380MR, which is a nice semi-...

OK, thanks. I would leave for others to decide what the “higher resolution image” might mean. It might be some kind of untranslatable Japanese folklore. The more vibrant color palette is definably a valid accomplishment, no one knows through if it is...

Yes you don't want to go over 0 "dBFS" for sure. In fact it is not good to even hit 0 dB from what I have read in an AES paper. Something odd happens when you play it back (I can't remember the details). I shoot for peaks at -2 or -3 dBFS when...

The Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 tuner was made for German Ultrakurzwellen (ultra short waves or FM) Broadcast Network. The idea was to have a chain of wide-bandwidth composite signal receivers that feed re-transmitters. I made an attempt to accommoda...

First of all we need all to understand that all channels attenuators need only for setting up phase of playback live. When the installations are set up properly then it is all not necessary. Anyhow, if the upperbass has less output then you might use...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Assuming you go ahead with the mid-bass horn project: If you decide to run the woofer towers along with the mid-bass horns, it is logical to assume they'll produce much of the range produced by these new horns. [/quot...

Hi Romy,I see why you don't like the design. And in particular, the choice of where he chose to limit the frequency responses for the two channels. I see the benefit of the DSET approach in this context as you explained it. If I understand you, your ...

Chris,
I head a lot a lot of good thing about Pieter from Tribute and I would like to recruit him for the s2 transformer. We send last week to him an email and he did not reply. I heard from many other people that it is a very typical for his commu...

OK, the amp is running for the 6C41C for a few days and it looks like the tube should be burned-in sufficiently enough for now. Still I have to note that the sound of 6C41C was not changed since my initial listening of this tube.
Originally I drove ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Romy's comments on "axial rotation" of the horns (meaning in this case, angling the horns) has me thinking. I had planned to build in a vertical tilt adjustment for horns located near the floor and ceiling... I woul...

I have been asked by a number people who monitored my progress with RAAL’s “Water Drop” tweeter: “Romy was it worth it?” Well, I think after a year of leaving with tweeter, learning and satisfying it’s little habits I might pass some generalizing obs...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I have not heard any other systems using Vitavox S2 drivers, but I know it is possible to get the S2 to generate on-axis unpleasentries. In the case of the system I am building, one can happily sit straight in the firing ...

Thanks, Paul.
My Googleised Chinese allowed me to understand that they use some kind of forced cooling but there was not mentioning of it. Upon further inspection I come across to this image:
So, the amp has two fans aside to ...

A second opinion needed.
Interesting, I recently found a very-very well performing setting for my EV T350 tweeter. I changed the source for HF channel form amplifier’s output to the MF channel and now I source the HF channel AFTER the MF high-pass f...

It is amassing what kind of tricks the Fundamentals Channel allows to play. Since my high-frequency Vitavox S2 driver “clicked” recently:

Despite the fact the I lost the quality of the lower knee of my midbass horn (I guess the primary resonance went all the way down) I keep trying to catch the right termination of midbass low pass filter. I bought those expensive 20H coils and added ...
|

Yes, I agree. If the output of the fundamentals-channel is controlled via the slopes in the crossover, the opportunity to set the output on a recording-to-recording basis is lost. If one, however, has the output of the fundamentals-channel ...
