Those horns are in Connecticut’s 7th exit in a home of guy who has a privet river with own waterfall at his backyard. He could put 20Hz straight horn in his closet if he would know how…. :-)
Anyhow, I do not what to dive into this discussion as it w...

Thank you Romy,
<<The multiamping with Super Melquiades was made with intend to optimize the output transformers and to eliminate the interference between the inductance of the upper bass driver’s coil and the MF driver. I still use the speake...

If I succeed to make my midbass horn at attic then I will face another problem that I do not know how to address at this point. The horns will be powered from Melquiades bass channels – it means it will use a good 70 feet speaker cable. If I go with ...

Romy,
Have you considered replacing the cover on the tail of your Upper-Bass horn?
...With a large-diameter circular cover, made from a more resonant material (when I say large diameter, I mean quite a bit larger than the diameter of the rear c...

Hello friends,Romy wrote (in the context of the MingSu/Jackson/Goto upper-mid bass horn thread):"...Yep, I would hang the midbass above and as you said put an upperbass on a floor to anchor the center image. Something similar to what Jessie is doing....

I am not laughing. Just the other day I had the upper bass a little extra prominent, and midrange was gently tapering off into the highs. Some would say it was rolled off and flat, but when I played two Mahler 1's and the 9th, I enjoyed him like ne...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I still feel that a complementary upper bass channel is begging to be used in this system. [/quote]Yes, Romy, the upperbass channel is absolute mandatory. My comments were only about the particular driver, nothing more than...

Romy,thank you for sharing thoughts on the 80Hz horn, giving honest opinion. So if the 80Hz horns are flawed design, I do not want to waste time to improve them. By the way, they are loaded with EVM15B drivers. I am now a bit perplexed on which rout...

Yes, when I move the drivers or for that matter if I move my listening position, I realign.What I hear and measure about the drivers relative distances to each other is this. When I first set up the drivers, one horn ended and the next one started, t...

Why the need to cross the S3 so low? Crossing below 500Hz on a 260 horn seems to be pushing the limits a bit. What kind of upper bass solution are you planning?

Hi Jorge, Thank you for the response. Re: cable, yes I've been too lazy to install binding posts in the back of the cabinet. I have no good reason, necessarily why I am crossing the 250 Hz horn at 1k. I posted my measurement above, but of course this...

user="anthony"] I have noticed that there are several commercial horn
offerings that push a wide bandwidth through a single horn (eg. Martion Einhorn

they do it i...

I'm not sure I understand what point you consider a priority, but I can explain the reason for my initial inquiry and what I intend to do.My initial inquiry was intended to acquire information on whether a horn with a target range of 40Hz to 400Hz co...

I think we have to subdivide bass into upper bass from 100hz to whatever your midrange does and bass under 100hz and then maybe infrabass.
Front loaded upper bass horns are fantastic and I would say if you never heard one, you really nev...

Tax, do not go over yourself with “building paranoia”, looking for drivers, horns, boxes and etc. If you are looking for 80Hz to 200Hz range (you will need higher upper knee for AG Dou) then you do not need a bass driver with Resonance frequency of 3...

I am currently planning high-WAF speakers for my sister which have to stand in the corners on the floor. Asking for small corner horns I was told the EV Baronet could be a solution. Simulating it with roughly estimated dimensions I found that the FR ...

What I like: The fact that they are doing this. The upper part of these speakers is truly beautiful, both in composition and in workmanship, which is on the level of fine jewelry. Sonic attributes aside, visually that Pinocchio tweeter horn i...

Mouth size is the one dimension I've struggled with most.As of the present time, I've deduced to use a mouth size that may prevent me from achieving the target frequency of 40Hz, and instead produce a frequency of about 55Hz or even 60Hz. I can...

Ronnie,
The stuffing the back chamber in upper bass horn and stuffing a sealed enclosure have totally different purposes. In the firs case we need to decrease volume of the chamber in the second to increase it. The polyurethane foam spray is not foa...

Again, moving the speakers last night I felt that I really would like to move the speakers closer to the mid of the room – the further the speakers from the back wall the more interesting sound. There is another “again” in what I felt last night. I t...
