How do you know i'm Polish in the first place?
If someone presents any pose on this forum (I have no idea about any Polish forums)
this is you. Don't get me wrong, but please fuck off. I don't remember reading
any interesting thought or experience from you here.


Cheers,
Jarek

Come on guys!

Guys, can you keep your eyes on the ball and do not do it? It is truly irrelevant how much money the Moscow guy stolen in 90s or if he made his money by digging ditches by hands. I do not think that subject of the system owners money ever was discussed at this site and I see no reason to do it. It does not appeal to me what this guy does as I can’t see any well-formed objective in his progression. Not that he has no well-formed objectives but rather that I can’t follow them, which is not necessarily his fault. For sure the fanatical freedom that he looks like has let him to exercise expensive solutions but why hell it would make me or anybody else to be angry? I might be interested in what he does or not but my interest has very little to do with amount of money the guy spent of his installation. I am kind of a guy who more care about efforts spent then money spent. How much he has spent is only his business and I do not think neither I nor you shall care about it. So, N-set, I do not think that it is wise to throw away him in the way you did ONLY because he does well financially. If you have no other reasons to disregard that Moscow guy  other then his alleged economical freedom then I would prefer you to keep it to yourself and to your ether accountant or psychologist.

Ok, I admitt I might have gone too far with my generalization: I do not know the guy, a chance
(faint in my experience with that region) is he has never stolen anything.
My general disregard of ejaculations of dirty money, be audio or whatever,
has nothing to do with the "economical freedome", which I neither envy nor desire,
rather with were it may come from.

N-set, you are not in IRS business or supervise somebody ethics. It is absolutely irrelevant what he stolen; if he did then it is good for him. This is audio site and the talk about dirty money is truly contra productive. If you want to talk about dirty money then run for congress of your county or become a talk radio host. Truly, let keep the things audio related.  Thanks.

Oh dear
fiogf49gjkf0d
. Don't get me wrong, but please fuck off. I don't remember reading
any interesting thought or experience from you here.


My apology that I assumed you're Polish . You're right . I realized, I  don't have anything interesting to say some years ago and regret
those infantile posts from the past and don't post much anymore in a case you didn't notice.  I do find some of your posts quite interesting although
have problem accepting some of yours childish attitudes. Keep well
Regards, W

"It does not appeal to me what this guy does as I can’t see any well-formed objective in his progression"

It's not about objectives Roman but about what you call "instant gratification"  It is not easy to get this feeling doing full horn multi-way system and integrating it properly even if ones objectives are rather basic. Going for FR drivers in big horn brings it  immediately without almost  any conceptual work. You get generic solution "on the plate" without need to even specify and address your objectives. Big impressive sound is there and IT IS pleasant.

GOTO
fiogf49gjkf0d
Hi there, been reading this thread and I wonder if the Russian guy liked GOTO for what it stands for then why use it with anything but straight horns and why use it with tube amps?
If he knew history and design philosophy behind GOTO his choices are very very strange.

The history and design philosophy behind GOTO is not a secret.  The case of that Russian guy is not strange but rather his references are unknown. It perfectly possible to decipher from the pictures what he is doing but it is impossible to say what he is trying to accomplish as it is absolutely unknown who he is, what he is and what his objectives are. I wish the folks who do that internet pornography had a habit to drop and few paragraphs describing what they have in their mind, if anything. We kind of presume that is a guy has a lot of money than he just piles up equipment brainlessly and has nothing in his head. It is true in many instances but it is not necessary must be true. I did spent a lot of money on audio and there was time what I did it brainlessly and there was time what I did it thoughtful. So, with my respect of my efforts when I did do it thoughtful I do extend some benefits of the doubts to those people even if I do support the presumption of Moronity in audio.

A new reiteration of the Moscow setup.
fiogf49gjkf0d
Another few months and the guy from Moscow have another change:

http://www.soundup.ru/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4296:2014-01-09-11-48-09&catid=91:2013-&Itemid=111 

The text shall be translatable, even though I was not able to activate the translator.

I am not impressed with the direction Alex is going; neither have I understood what he is doing. Well, I think I do understand what he is doing, but I degree with it. From the article it appears that Alex plays mostly small jazz, the proverbial “a girl with banjo”, so it looks like he is looking for that science of “audio-immediacy.“ There is nothing wrong with it and the overloaded Lowthers would do it just fine.

What is interesting in the article is the desire of the author to explain how the Alex’s bass sound. It is time-misaligned, semi-open baffle array with 15” electromagnets driven by SS. The authors, the owner of the site does have a tendency to brash mediocrity with glamour language. It might or not might the case this time. I personally predict that I would not be impressed with Alex’s bass. It is semi-open baffle that starched from 20Hz to 200Hz with one channel… Hm…, I do not believe in it. He uses different combination of bass drivers driven from the same amp, it is interesting but not effective in bass. I do not  say that it looks to me that the mouth of the bass horns would not support anything under 80-90Hz per channel and with open back I presume that his bass drivers go dipole at 40-50Hz.

So, I am not impressed so far. It looks to me that Alex obviously frustrated and keep doing something but it does not yet compiled into one unified sensible audio expression.

Rgs,
Romy the Cat
