49Hz To 52Hz will be your peak, so the best you could hope for would be 3 hz below that flat with a perfect tuning of your length of your horn and back chamber of your box housing your woofers. If you shoot for the free air low res of your design, of...

[quote user="haralanov"] My driver has not even a single trace of tizzing top end. Tizzines is intrinsic feature of ribbon drivers (including RAAL), not of well designed paper drivers. Actually, the heart of my acoustic system is ultra high perf...

The whole room (L-shaped) is larger as you all noticed, but as Roman saw in my Blog , the listening space is smaller - i.e. about 6,5 x 4,5 meters with low 2,70 ceiling - and is a perennial work in progress... yes, the Stereo Lab 1000 hz is a true wa...

[quote user="haralanov"] This experiment was made a few days ago by a friend of mine who is speaker repair person. The modified compression driver is Soviet made 1A-16. If you have the chance to compare the single layer VC vs. the original VC and to ...

[quote user="el`Ol"] I know the PAC tweeter of the WLM has the best transients and transparency of all tweeters I know and so is the best tweeter above 5kHz I know, although I hated the implementation (crossed far too low, harsh-sounding upper midran...

Ending up re-amping my MF channel, I found myself at unexpected situation that I am not completely compostable with Macondo HF. It is not that the HF are bad but they were made to serve the interest of older, slightly softer operating single-stag...

[quote user="tuga"]If you have a midrange driver you can try that for yourself.[/quote]In this case the lack of "full-range" audio is so glaring it overwhelms any advantage of the point source, I think.

Here is my proposal for an ideal horn system. The concept derives from the really of the horns as I know them, the available park of the drivers, the drivers’ real capacity and from… everything else that I might comment upon if you would not figure o...

Okay... I also downloaded the original Milq SET amplifier PDF and have looked at it in detail as well as the 6-channel adaptation (DSET) and I understand where you're going with it... or so I think. In my particular situation, I've owned two pair of ...

This Sakuma’s is kind of BS. What I mean is that it has the appeal to be “good thinking” but only in the realm of marketing hype, something that the editor of “Direct Heating” had created around Sakuma. The reality is that the Sakuma’s TWO channel Am...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Assuming one will not get anything under 50Hz (usable) from a 40Hz horn, I interpret the mission of lower-bass channels in the context of a horn system as follows….[/quote]
Hm, this is a bit tricky with bass. A pla...

Ok, I have figured out why I have so extended bandwidth over 73kHz for my tweeter. I forgot that when I measured it I had the LPAD wide opened and in this configuration the parallel resistor is 20K and series is shorted. So, in that case I had just o...

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. The good LFs are good by themselv...

I did find replacement tubes OK (online), just not locally, like I had hoped. I have now recieved, installed and tested all new tubes but the 6N6Ps, which have been delayed in St. Petersberg by Christmas mail jamb-up. ...

I’m absolutely certain that the mids and lows are designed in the same function supporting fashion as I described the compression driver. Danley explicitly explains this in his patent. For my own amusement, I went through all the math and calculation...

[quote user="serenechaos"] "I think the ultimate length of the upperbass horn is 3”- 4” throat. With longer horn it would be very complicated to time-align it as the horn will mask out the MF driver."
Is this also why you use tractrix curve f...

The throat diameter of 7" is what I first approximated as an acceptable size, with the 4" being an alternative (should some unwanted effects arise, I may then experiment with the 4" throat). I can't simply assume 7" will be correct (though that...

Mark,
It is hard to say. I owned T90A sometimes in 2001-2002. At that time I was going through the drivers like crazy and T90A was just one of them. Looking from now I do not think that I gave to many drivers a chance as I did not “work” them trying...

Romy,I merely thought that you felt I was riding roughshod over your advice, when it was in fact a degree of naivety requiring extensive clarification that may have made it appear thus. Regardless of your indifference to praise and/or criticism, I'd ...

I recently completed some upper bass horns which I'm now enjoying very much. Sadly I lack the skills of someone like Jessie so my efforts are crude in comparison, but they are working well for me which is the main thing.I already had some old frontlo...

Shannon, I am not 100% sure what you are asking. If you want
to drive SS with a single 5E6P stage then you have some difficulties. Dima had his version of SRPP with 5E6P to drive his SS and it "worked" very fine. http://forum.vegalab.ru/showthread...

priviet. I tried many ways. I cut the front outside faceplate open, and put a second driver on it. So that two drivers were firing onto each other face to face in one single hornthroat, rest normal single K. To my surprise the output didn't increase ...
