Kerry, from what you have said so far, I am not surprised that you have gone whole-hog digital. I see that yours is an HT system. The first thing anyone here would say is, physically time-align your HF, although I suppose you "could" do that with DEQ...

Romy dropped by yesterday. He goddamn demonstrated how "yellow" and compressed the Lowther (Reps-1, in my case) is, using my system, by simply playing other channels and the Lowther channal separately (mine is a 4way multi-amp set up, so it's v...

Too late now for points, but just the other day I tried to imagine your plan. and I was pretty close.Actually, it is a bit like what I have going now; 15" Eminence bass guitarr woofers in a sealed 3 cu ft cabinet,Oris 150 with 8" B&C midrange dr...

There were plenty it of them made: Techniques 9500, Excusive 2301, Iwatas, JBL 2350 and JBL 2345, Vitavox (narrow) and few others … They kind of very strange horns and I always was suspicions about them. Though my suspicions are purely theoretical: a...

The Loudspeaker (Troels Gravesen project); a report started "too soon" because they've taken sooo long to build, and they fired right up (first try), and they already do Music!
For some time (at least a decade) I thought about
building a ver...

Somebody from AA was asking about electromagnet. The subject pup up here from time to time but this time Bruce Edgar uploaded an interesting comment. Bruce is not a typical AA Moron and if he says “inaccurate things” then it is not due to ignoran...

I have to disagree with you here. Until you've heard the bass from a JBL Hartsfield, you haven't heard bass. Best bass I've heard period. I'm curious if the Vitavox is of the same caliber. ...

[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...

Before experimenting with the Hi power Electrostatic module, I used 416's in my large corner horn. They sounded extraordinary (ran with inf baffle to basementand made me realize how much Altec/JBL enclosures suck with their poor deep bassperformance...

Romy, are you going to verify the decision of using fragile vintage drivers?E.g. by trying JBL midbass drivers?They would be closer to the design philosophy of the Fane Studio 8M.http://www.jblpro.com/components/maxout.htm#2020H...

I did not like the two slit configuration of the phase plug..but the five to one compression ratio produced low distortion,,,but i was not impressed with its bandwidth,,,JBL also used a eight inch speaker assembled to a special phase plug,, You will...

Interesting, according to the link the guy moved from 4 Goto drivers to Rulited Lowther and Foxtex. I wonder if he got sick to burn his Goto drivers. I also wonder what would happen if insted all of it he use the default JBL 2440. Surly, both Goto an...

I would certainly be the sort to frequent such a place as the Classical or Jazz Cafe.Regarding Mr. Hwang's implementation; even through the computer replay medium, I hear the quality of this horn implementation, and I'm inclined to believe it sounds ...

I agree the "period" closing needs more words, Roman.The P.A. horns/drivers were mounted in stadiums, convention centers, maxonic halls, cinemas, theaters, everywhere was needed a broad music or speech dispersion, trouble free operation and high S.P....

Romy---A pal uses JBL 3115s, speakers for small picture theaters that use a similar horn-loaded cones in a narrow range, from 250 or 300hz up to 1600hz.They sound pretty good, better than any high-end type speakers I've heard.Keep in mind though...

[quote user="Murataltuev"]So, the question is still opened: how to get 300-400hz.[/quote]Perhaps give the JBL 2169H a try. It is supposedly very good from 300Hz to 2.2kHz, but I have never tried it. Use it in a sub 200Hz tractrix horn with a 4" thr...
|
|
From what I gather the JBL 2169 driver is an 8" cone speaker with a sealed back chamber. If this is so it was designed for a specific horn. It shall be used in that horn or a very similar one. The back chamber should be tuned/designed for the horn ...
|
|
You need to find an individual who can design series crossovers. Both JBL and Altec used these, because they sounded best. You will need to look for an individual near where you live because they will have to test the drivers as the design progresses...

Perhaps a vintage tube radio with an auxiliary input or two? No DYI, a bit romantic, can have very good tone - especially if electrically cleaned up a bit.I have a pair of JBL LE8s that could very well be a solution for the bedroom....

Hi Romy,in another thread you recommended the JBL LE8 as a good driver for the 200-1,000 Hz region. Any specific version of that driver? It has been produced in different variants over a rather long time....

Recently, I added JBL 2220 for below 200 and replaced TOA DSP with Pioneer D-23 4way active crossover. The result is very positive, but there are still many issues I'd like to attend.I'll be out of country early in September so that'll be a goo...

[quote user="Merlin"] Indeed the linearity of the Berning in comparison with the Lamm is quite remarkable, and indeed could be disconcerting to an inexperienced listener brought up on large increases on 2nd harmonic at the bottom end. [/quote]

Well, I do not know what they did in “Everest”. The level of being “horny” is not a fixed level. JBL might do own drivers that does not need or need less equalization from hors. It’s hard to say anything without having the driver in own hands. Sure t...

Yes, Haralanov, thanks. I just goggled the JBL Array 1400 and they did look what I heard: http://www.jblsynthesis.com/downloads/products/prod_94_634484048356173879_Specification%20Sheet%20-%20Project%20Array%201400.pdfVery accurate and surprisingly 8...
