Greg, I have written about my "DEBZ" speakers several times at this site, including Post ID 3269, early in my original Lamm ML2 thread. I mention these speakers now to compare what we are aiming at here to what I have already done, wh...

Haralanov, I've spun this thread off the "Speakers for a Powerful SET" thread, as you suggested. I took a couple of pictures, but I can't figure out how to upload them, just yet. I'm also not sure what you could see from the outside, anyway.As for th...

Ok, I completely disassembled one of the Super Milqs and physically injected extra 3 channels. It looks like everything is all right real-estate wise, still I would prefer of course to have more space….
As now the amp is completely shattered ...

Ok; there's a mis-print somewhere, or a manufacturing change... The web site linked listed SG-370 as 23,000 gauss, and SG-370DX as 24,000 gauss. The goto brochure lists SG-370 as 24,000 gauss. And was discussed yesterday w/ someone, one doesn't re...

Thanks The CatI'm posting the pics of the build as I progress so people can see and pass on ideas, that's all. Are you suggesting you don't want horn projects shown on your site? I had earlier outlined the design, including cross-over points etc.I as...

[quote user="anthony"]My RAAL Lazy Ribbon has ended up needing a 1st order high pass filter to match the midrange S2 which is so much more convenient than third or fourth order as initially intended.[/quote]
In my case I found that RAAL ribbon wit...

Oh, yes this is the whole idea of Remedies, it is not only a Red combination but it is an assembly with midbass channel which would make it a conventional box loudspeaker. You see, with all interesting things about Tannoy Red the woofer part of t...

Ah, I think I have found the secrets that I was looking for. I still do not work with 15-in woofer but still try to make my red driver sound the way how I want and I got some revelation and the result that is very close where I would like to be. The...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I have to admit that although the Macondo “Water Drop Tweeter” sounds very good but I do not have that “shocking sound” that I got from the “Water Drop” during my initial introduction to it. I kind of always felt it and I ...

Alex, contrary to the numerous speculation that many people more or less reasonably spread about the subject, my experience indicates that there are no such a things as “preferable crossover frequencies". The chosen optimum crossover frequencies are...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]As a way of forcing myself to see the thing as a whole, I will start by converting this schematic to a 3D CAD model, illustrating each component and its relation to the others (with more distance between the parts than in ...

A little update on the Milq amp.After sorting some of the problems with the amps transformers (see posts above ) .I now have two mono blocks operational that have about 700 hours ,I'm so glad hour meters were installed .Filament voltage is spot on 6...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]The Velodyne SMS 1 will allow you to do just about anything, up to 200Hz. [/quote]I was the Velodyne crossover into the game yesterday. To my surprise it not as convenient as I thought. The high pass filter is not defeatab...

Guest napping now from 16 hrs jet lag, so I have a moment...Jorge, you raise an interesting point about THs. I may be incorrect in assuming THs sound worse as they play higher in freq. Perhaps instead the limitation is one of narrow bandwidth rathe...

Christmas is a beautiful time for Jewish boy to play this audio project and I did last few days quite a lot of experiments. So far quite disappointing. Did a few implementations to cut off stress on the red woofer and compliment it with 15-in woo...

These are 103db efficient 15" midbass boxes. It's a band pass horn design with narrow bandwidth of 60-250hz. No port thought, it's a sealed box with two chambers in front of the driver. I do not know how they sound but, myself interested in trying th...

This weekend wife told me that I should not do nothing else
but to fix my playback and this was exactly what I wanted to do. Yesterday I took
good 14 hours to play with it, moving boxes, trying to find a good
configuration, making measurements, th...

what a great idea-- i never really thought of a sort of 'low pass bypass' inductor of sorts?! i'd always assumed that inductance was similar to capacitance in that regard-- the more you add, the more you get-- but hadn't thought about the...

Dear Malinowski,The basic idea for phase plugs is that the sound from all points of the diaphragm should arrive to the throat at the same time. For the midbass horn we only used a simple one slit plug. If you feel up to it you could make a more...

This is very interesting subject.
I expect that tghe new Midbass horns will have somewhere 108dB sensitively anechoicly. The driver is 99dB and the hyperbolic curve has much more EQ then Tractrix and that is more important the EQ that work mu...

So, looking at the schematic below......I have a few more questions25 turn pot in the filament supply. For the life of me I can't source a 25 turn pot. The 10 turn Bourns 3590 is the closest I can find. Do I need to keep looking for a more sensiti...

Well, you see, the outer dimensions of the mouth of cause an indications of low end response and by objective evaluation of it is easy to estimate horn’s bass numbers. However, it is very far from “sufficient” assessment. A few years back I completel...

Yes, the Dresden’s talk about 40Hz horn and 90Hz horn as the similar horns, particularly if he does not want to "cheat", stroked me as odd too. 90Hz horn is a nice a manageable 40” piece of furniture. The 40Hz is the monster in a house and a good rea...

Yes of course, rule going to be very much in play and certainly it will be impacted by specific response right and left channels to a given location. Even though the location is hugely variable and the speakers might be moved with the freedom of 6-7 ...

It is kind of sad day and I think I will take a break for a week or two and will not be playing with my speakers. I begin to integrate the 15-in woofer with Remedius and it was not as simple as appear. I do not think that the location when I have my ...

Hi Romy, It's called "the itch". I was debating high and low before plunging for the Pass. I played around with the capacitance setting. I put it to ZERO and the sound lacked body. 100pf was a little better. Bass was tight but lacked absolute weight....
