Anthony, this is very interesting perspective. I associate my feeling in respect to sensitivity but you brought up the activity as something which certainly coupled with sensitivity. I do not think that we have a mythologically clean experiment h...

I am not painter and I do not know about history of Painting Art but this may be interesting to compare "Macondo vs Dannoy" to "Romanticism vs Realism"I think this subject is very interesting to think why Romy changed (after 20 years of non-stop work...

A follow up to the above-described effect: in case of the Injected Macondo the phenomena expectedly changed amplitude. With the Injected playback those “wrong” notes are more vivid but slightly less annoying then the raw Macondo. The wrong notes kind...

[quote user="be"]I sugest that those inconsistencies ar due to on axis frequency anomalities of the used horns. Elimminate these, and the inconsistecies will vannish, and the concerned axiom wil be void. [/quote] The effect that descried was observed...

There has been one year of frustration about something that "shouldn't" work. I will maintain, if we want another go, then we have to hook up Melquiades/Macondo and get our ears back to where they were. Then we repeat the Dunnoy experiment. Maybe the...

Actually, it is fascinating to see someone who has well defined objectives on slippery ice. What surprised me was the extreme cut off of the Macondo - somewhat like an unfaithful wife, but actually (from my view) Macondo was 100% faithful to its crea...

Considering the conclusions of my recent experiences that I described in the following thread:http://www.GoodSoundClub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=6876I would like to share some of my observation that the people who would g...

A few days back a local audio guy come to my place, heard some music and I played and said something that did not expect from his level of audio intelligence. (I wonder if it was the same guy who advised me to write a handbook “How to make friend...

[quote user="msaudio"] Every frequency above 80 cycle's should be coming from the front of your listering position, next to macondo. [/quote]thats correct the worse thing you can ever do there would be trying to get your upper bass 80hz above from t...

Great analyses, David, thanks. I can’t concur as now with anything. Macondo in the room with midbass horn was a complex installation and with ULF it became even more complex. Some of the things I setup by ear and do not use measurements, I just know ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I can’t predict what sound will I get with hardwood floors and how it will be different from think wall-to-wall carpet that I have now. Currently I have architect wood joists 30 feet long running at the bottom of the floor....

[quote user="zanon"]Romy:
I did not know you sat less than 6 feet from Maconda.
Can I ask why you chose this position? Was it required by your room (it is small room, Macondo is big system) or was there some auditory effect you were searchi...

I pack up the new amp today and plug it in with my right Macondo channel. The electricity was not bad I was VERY surprised with the fact that the new amp sounded MUCH more advanced then I anticipated from a chance of MF channels power supplies. The l...

My 18-cell is a classic 18-cell very similar of the one that the guy from Sweden built:

The difference is that my multicell has 3 extra cells and out...

[quote user="CO"]But Romy, you also have the different channels in a curved array ? Whats the difference I know your's are time aligned but the Utopias must be as well.[/quote]
Collin, you are correct the Macondo and Utopia implement the same curved...

Here are a number of threads at my site where the concept of “Rightsizing from extreme systems....” is pitched. I looked into the “second” systems not because I was interested in “different sound”. In fact I insist that multiple playbacks in the same...

[quote user="ghpicard"] So Romy, we know you haven't yet prepared your new room, but weren't your Macondo / Milq in your old apartment a properly implemented stereo setup ?Why ?Gaston[/quote] Gaston, you confuse a bit the whole notion of “properly im...

I guess I would like to be able to do something better than anyone else - and still be better after 100s of years.....My take is a bit difference. When I perform with players with a Stradivarius violin, it isn't the violin that is impressive - up clo...

I would like to overview the content of my thoughts on the subject. I feel that the first phase of my interest in single-stage Milq vs. DHT is over and I can make some observations.
The subject turned out to be more interesting and more changi...

After living for a few years with Edgar 80Hz straight horns, I've had many urges to find a better sounding solution. I have a reason. Every time I turn them off and continue listening without them I notice that something good happens to the sound. It...

[quote user="serenechaos"]Romy, Any thoughts yet as to Injection Channel location/integration in new room? Selfish question, I recently got a pair of reds, and have been trying to think of how to place them/type of enclosure to build, without distur...

Hi Josh,I think it is all a matter of perspective. Personally, I would be very surprised if the key elements of the sound of that system that so impressed you is due to the Goto drivers. There are at least three more important things: that big roo...

[quote user="Jorge"]About the looks, well I listen to music with my eyes closed, so I dont really care.[/quote] Well, it is not how I see it. The topology of acoustic systems like Macondo implies the stand-alone tweeters. So, why do not make it attra...

[quote user="msaudio"]…. but it will never sound good until you have everything in the line of playback as close to original as possible. [/quote] This is very faulty premise, I multiple times objected it. The people who play live music, record i...

This past weekend I was able to have an extended listen to the revised Melchiades amplifers. My previous listening session left something to be desired with midbass punch and dynamics. Had I not have heard mini me it may not have been noticeable. ...

I got a few days an email from the site reader where he expressed interest about DPoLS and informed me that is working on his own methodology to deal with DPoLS. This kind of revived in my memory when my own installation was in DPoLS positions, God,...
