I think my dysfunctional one 15” driver in my Midbass was
for a while and THAT was something the make me to feel that I need to move
Macondo to 9-9-1 position. With the recent changes (recovery of a woofer,
recalibration of channels, EQ of the mid...

One more thing that I would like to point out in context of the recent Marc Mickelson’s review. Marc wrote:
“The Atma-Sphere amps are certainly more powerful than the ML3 Signatures, but not noticeably so unless you clip the Lamm amps. “
Here is wh...

Hi Romy,
I am planning my own DSET build. I have based my speakers on your Macondo and
am busy turning MDF horns in my spare time.
Once that is over I will move onto amplifiers. I plan to build a fullrange Melquiades for a
friend and the...

[quote user="anthony"]My interest is
mainly in the 10Y/801A/VT25 tubes on one hand and the 45 on the other hand.
The YO186 also interests me a lot especially after reading your
impressions of it in your circuit and system, but it is a very diffic...

[quote user="skushino"] Edgarhorns weren't an obvious choice. Many horns never worked for me. The Avantgardes left me cold. So did the single-driver crowd (I just don't get it....), Altec VOTs, PA systems, etc. But there were some systems th...

[quote user="martinshorn"]i see the words time alignment quiet often in this forum Which is a good thing. But can you show a graph / measure that says what it means in a result?Or do you just mean the woofer is standing next to the mains?Cheers Josh ...

[quote user="anthony"]I plan to
build a fullrange Melquiades for a friend and then if that works out the DSET 6
or 7 channel version for myself. [/quote]
That is very good approach in my view. The
problem is in this approach that you have t...

I am not impressed with that Hornfabrik and I do not see
what they do “right”. The video is expectedly stupid, with the “journalist” do
not know what they are asking and what they hear in response. For instance the small speaker they claim to have ...

[quote user="Murataltuev"]I can't go
longer than 2m. Any suggestions about configuration of horn with this length
limit ? May be higher frequency ? [/quote]
Curve the horn. If you Goto channel will not care
any HF over let say 150-200Hz th...

I very much like a few things you did with the frame. I like
that the stack is compact with no wasted space. I like that you have the highs
of your frame higher then you need as if you go for slightly larger MF channel
then you have a frame height...

Actually, I used laser BMS
multiple times, and I found it completely useless. Yes, I perfectly can set up
my horns with laser us and down or left and right, but I found that and my new
difference, if one of the corns will be even inch higher or lo...

[quote user="rowuk"] If this is the best that your
engineers have to offer, you need better engineers. Bruce Edgar did far better
by himself without those engineers. [/quote] Rowuk, you raised two subjects that in my view worth to
cover.

It is great that Wilson did anything like this, thank for
pointing out. I did not read the article passing 3rd paragraph and stooped
reading when they start taking about listening impressions. The listening
impressions from those people are truly ...

Yesterday I have a great listening time. I sent Amy with twins
to her parents. I put Thomas to sleep in his room and as he woke up I set him
to watch his Caillou for hours and I went to my listening room to have nice quality
time with my playback....

[quote user="anthony"] Personally, I would prefer to have the equipment
rack somewhere else in the room but that is just me. [/quote]The subject of equipment rack to be in or out is
well debated by be in past. Unquestionably from sonic perspective ...

Yesterday I finalized everything, made the crossovers permanent,
arranged the cables, check the phases and levels per each channel and officially
declared to my wide that the listening room setting up is over. Then as the kids
went to bed I decide...

Here I share some thoughts about what you have shown. I will
share only critical and warning thoughts not because I have nothing but critiques.
All nessesary compliments for your planning come as a default and I do not
think you posted it here to ...

I would bet that Romy prefers to sit from mid hall to the back of the hall, as I do, and our penchant for for large orchestral music. Thus, while sitting up front gives the orchestra stage maybe 120 degrees wide, with little hall sound, it tends...

Lately I have been thinking a lot, trying figure out what I
am and where I would like to go with Macondo. The Macondo base, the horns isle
is still there and I have no motivation to change anything. The conceptualizing
and assembling of what I hav...
