Hello all! My name's Cody; just a disclaimer: I am an employee of TARA Labs. I'm not here to promote TARA Labs products, I was just hoping to have some worthwhile discussions with other audiophiles.
Our listening room has recen...

Hi Thorsten,
I understand what you are saying and with regard to the particular preamp in question and you may well be right as there is no mention by the manufacturer what brand of autoformers are in use (or if they roll their own). I am curi...

Romy, I have been trying to explain to myself what happened and how I got to it and trying to recreate this wonderful boiling point.
I tried to make a write up of all the steps needed in order to make it happen, but it is ever so elusive. I ...

[quote user="zako"]I dont get it,,,Why introduce a system thats been around in all the CINEMA theaters for the last hundred years,, I guess what goes around comes around again,,,[/quote]
Well, they did not “introduce” anything as I understand...

This guy is certainly trying...... What I have heard shows at least speakers that are very listenable

Well, behind all those conversations about the Alex peruse to his happiness and about the Srajan-like freak to bite whatever does not lie firmly I think the most critical and important aspect of the RAAL project get lost – the sound of those things.&...

A few days ago in the thread “Who Builds Horns”: http://www.goodsoundclub.com/TreeItem.aspx?postID=3226#3226 there were mentioned the Cessaro Horn Acoustics Company from Germany. The company has an interesting model Gamma: http://www.cessaro-hor...

Well... tis for all reading/following this thread. As Romy pointed out, having high gain is not the same as power. And as Adrian hinted at... the overall system paradigm is important. If you're only barely cracking the volume control on yo...

[quote user="drdna"] So what are the effects of good electricity of the PP2000? It may be a good idea to look at the frequency response and harmonic distortion of the system to see if filters in the Macondo speaker system may need to be adjusted now ...

This is an article from Thomas Dunker's site (available in my Links Section) and presumably written by him. Although I slightly disagree with some of the statements he made about the horns “imaging” and some others but generally it is very good...

[quote user="drdna"]I have found the next obvious glaring problem, which is contributing to the muddy sound I described earlier. There is a mismatch between the two channels. The right channel is very slightly softer than the left with a ...

[quote user="morricab"] It is a good question that I also asked when I saw this speaker. Afterall, everything being equal using the same materials for the drivers is more optimal from a coloration standpoint. My guess is cost. They ...

How the hell can a miserable recording of a live Rolling Stones concert be any reference for advanced playback. I'll bet that everyone that attended the concert was amazed - and that had to be about the shittiest sound known to mankind produced b...

I am still waiting for a (single stage) tube that can make full range Music via speakers. I mean, this is the real issue, isn't it? Sure a good tube will pass a "full range signal" through the right transformer; but where is the tube that will do t...

The Martion speakers ignore time alignment among other things.. How good can the bass be when the overtones are not even aligned?...

In case there's any confusion, it was the Avatons in Munich (and not the Animas). I took a good listen to them on Friday, and wasn't overly impressed. I spent a long time there yesterday though and thought they sounded better than anything else I'd h...

My favorite were the Classic Audio speakers. I know they have many faults, but the Fostex 500II tweeter was singing nicely. ...

... my only experience with newer, expensive Berillium diaphragm Goto drivers, has been a mix between "Wow, I'm listening to a +35K euros speakers system" and... "Gosh, music do not sound this way"... this of course was due to some crossovers tuning ...

|
It may be asking too much to expect the LF horn to play well up to and beyond 250Hz. Although the mid horn probably has an Fc of 200Hz the associated driver isn't going to be functioning optimally at the crossover point either. How well this marr...

Yesterday a local hi-fi guy invited me to listen his new speaker. He picked up Altec Model 19 - I am known not to be a big fun of those speakers but they have own sound in the scale of non-demanding, off-the-shelf monitors. Upon expecting the speaker...

symbiotic diaphragms were never used in the 19's. this may be part of the "bad sound" that this guy was experiencing.they used the 802-8g driver with ultra light epoxy and aluminum diaphragm that allowed hf response up to 22,000 cycles when pairedwi...

[quote user="vuki"]Hi,Mr. Hiraga said (and it's also in the promo-flyer) that he uses modified GreatPlainsAudio coaxial, although the one in the speakers that were playing music looked more like original Altec 604 (because of the multicell horn). So,...

Maybe no other hi-fi group has thought more about the cabinet's contribution to sound than the single-driver crowd. Many of them like the "immediacy", "integrity" and "purity" of the single driver sound so much that they endlessly hu...

I wasn't trying to critique Bert, or even get into an in-depth critique on the Swing, more Compression Driver configurations -- vertical vs. angled, and coaxial, (and maybe other factors which affect Sound). But I'm more and more real...

Oliver, I am little confused. I was under impression that difference between original Görlichs and the most recent ATD was that ATD used titanium foil vs. Görlichs used aluminum. The two drivers that I had in past were 8” and 6” (perhaps not exactly ...

... Anyhow, if you feel that Morison Audio is a right implemented “360 degree dispersion at all frequencies into a solid angle” (soothing that actually never happen live) then is any place what the Morison Audio’s re...
