[quote user="Paul S"]I have begun to see a pattern of diminishing net returns with respect to the smaller SETs, to the point where I wonder if their "potential" can ever be practically realized as Music in Full Glory. Lastly, the choice of an ou...

I need to tell you that I did not finalize mu Milq DH DSET up to the point where I would listen it. Perhaps I am wrong but the amp even in the last version has some lack of agreeability. It is good on paper, it might even sound right when it will be ...

…. I would suggest trying to drive this driver with a single stage solution with no capacitance - you might find it very very very very very very educational.

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Below a certain frequency the advantages become a handicap. At that point (if you were using its EQ capabilities), the SMS -1 would start to step in... Whether you reach that point with your 10" arrays depends on how low ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Romy, I followed his advice and currently rent four storage facilities; two on either side of the Atlantic. I think its time to consolidate, but I'll definitely let you know if I need to add a fifth. jd*[/quote]Jessie:T...

Hm, this is what I am playing how: the new 18-cell and S3. I run it from a full time Milq and use it with no filter of any kid. Rony is right the depth effect is there, it is not even depth but rather multi-dimensionality. Indeed very pleasant feelin...

[quote user="haralanov"]And the very same is with electromagnets. With those so widely used 12V power supplies (Fertin, Feastrex for instance) the sound is always softer than it should be in reality with severally restricted dynamics and transien...

[quote user="haralanov"] You haven’t heard any important difference because you haven’t tried what I illustrated on the picture above. [/quote] Nope I did not as I do not feel that this type of experiment is even necessary. However, what I was carin...

[quote user="haralanov"] The horns, even the fast opening ones are physically too deep for their mouth’s size, and this leads to a psychoacoustic illusion that the sound images are arrested at the bottom of the horn and from there they scream they wa...

So, with this horn I got the sound I was dreaming for!Currently system consists of 4 channels:1. RAAL Lazy Ribbon (14k+)2. JBL 2453 in 550Hz LeCleach (1200 - 14k)3. JBL 2490 in first part of own JBL horn (300-1200)4. 12" Supravox in 42Hz 2m long horn...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Though the frames have wheels and roll very easily, my room is cursed with an elevated platform smack in the middle of everything (about 14 inches higher than the main floor), and to move the horns up on to or down off of...

properly implemented multi-channel installation has immense among of
advantages against single-channel including the geometry of imaging. [/QUOTE]Imaging...another hi-fi delusion. I used to record the Philadelphia Orchestra. The or...

[quote user="haralanov"] Let pretend you have (at least hypothetically) really excellent (satisfying your reference points) single UB channel. Then how are you going to achieve the coaxial effect one gets with 4 allocated in space channels? It will b...
|
[quote user="T3GGG"]Romy, what is your thought on using a Tractrix flare on a Midbass horn, Fc 140HZ then maybe a Le Cleah horn above, say 400hz. To me this looks on paper to be the best of both worlds and avoids the 1metre plus midbass Le Cleac'h ho...
|
[quote user="MINGSU"]I think you pointed out correctly. GOTO sell speaker driver and not a system - because it is impossible to pre-config a multi-horn system to fit every buyer's room and sound taste.As a business, I offer the full service of insta...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"]I would argue that the notion of point source is not the important thing about single driver speakers.[/quote]But we have all heard the difference, with standard stereo installations, where the bass comes from down below and...

I need to admit that I am partially a full of shit in this subject. For sure all the audio methods that I have mention are very beneficial to play Bruckner but the essence of the Bruckner music does not come from some kind of proper playback methods....

Besides the single driver Aporia (which I haven't heard) I don't think Silbatone has made any speakers. So they don't 'employ' GIP drivers. I think GIP is a separate Japanese company who have just been invited to participate at these German show...

I would like to note that my disagreement with David about his and other justification of TT high price does not imply that some of high price TT are very good performers, and it is highly possible that the new Micro AF1 is a very good sounding TT, i...

[quote user="mats"]I agree about the fragility but perhaps less so about "toy like". I am just now hearing for the first time Beethoven's 7th by Nanut and the second movement is very lovely, beautiful, mesmerizing and as the Eroica seemingly well und...

Hi Romy,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Pete,
I do not think that it makes a sense to searched for “LF for use with Vitavox S2”. Do you think that there are good LF to use with Vitavox S2 and there are good LF to use with other drivers? I do not think so...
|
Another interesting thing: why not a lot of people make the single ended hybrids? I understand that single ended output has very low efficiency but still: it is only about the heat dissipation. I have seen some single ended SS amp. There was a strang...
|
You and I now have what seems to be very similar situations; similar MF and HF channels, in a room of similar size. However, I still have no operational dedicated mid-bass channels; you do. I have dedicated lower-bass channels; you do not. As is ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Indeed, I did not realized that I shifted my thinking in this thread and an in my general views from the ways of using those “Resonating Oops” to the subject of Injection principles. I think I did it because Injection, as I...

Romy, Now you mention the issues here, I am thinking about what the differences in quality might be due to. I notice that you haven't explicitly said which is better, super or regular... so think of this just as brainstorming as to why things are... ...

Thanks Gregm. It is interesting that I completely forgot the TAD PT-R9. I was looking at it 5-6 years back and spoke with AudioKinesis ‘Duke, who reportedly knows them well. My reservations that time were the very same as now: with 97.5 dB/W sensitiv...

Your rules say no direct answers so forgive me this one.
My horn is a true 21Hz horn.If you want to do the calcs:(More or less) Throat 6264 square cm.Mouth 48312 cmsq.M or Q 0.7 depth 3m.Quarter space loading.It does not quite make 21Hz.-3...

Well, I do have 3 channels of DSEP. Dedicated Single Ended Pentode: one channel (bass/mid 30-500 Hz) with a 307A DH pentode feeding two wonderful Fane neodymium Colossus 12" - one from FS to 150 Hz and the second from FS to 500 Hz. OPT with a lot of ...
