List nigh I was trying to move Macondo around the my new listedning room trying to figure out where the Macondo's main components would stay. Nothing is connected yet and there is no Sound yet. The initials sentiment is that the room is perfect – eve...

Jessie was very right talking about therapeutic influence of audio projects.
I do not know why buy I feel very much attached and really feel personally the various micro events that I are going on with my current 6-channel Supper Milq project. ...

Rakesh, I moved your post to this thread as I feel it is more relevant here, I hope you do not mind. You ask yours the very same question that I ask myself. I do not have definitive answers to them:
[quote user="oxric"] I am presently consider...

It is not a secret the using a number of decoupling mechanisms between driver and baffle it is possible to change sound in resonance or amplitude department. However, if you guys insist that the tightening and loosening the screw has PHASE effects th...

[quote user="vakman"]Thank you for your reply and honest feedback that there is no silver bullet.In the interest of trying to move forward, is there anyone in Sydney, Australia who has a Macondo based speakers, whom I maybe able to visit and enlighte...
|
[quote user="drdna"]I would not restrict myself to the idea that things need to be a certain way or a certain configuration of the drivers or ports based on theory alone. I think it is important to ask what is interesting about the sound that the new...
|
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...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] So, I wonder what kind option I have. I think the most proper would be to reengage the Macondo's Axioms and to see how the bass channel might be modified in order to work alone with 63Hz mode but not against it. [/quot...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] .. what I am saying that playback certainly deliver sound but also it delivers let's call it at lubrication for sound which make consumption of Sonic messages to be more palatable for our conscious. This aspect, is this MS...

[quote user="el`Ol"]Romy,<BR>what do you think will be the crossover points of the new system?[/quote]el`Ol,
I have no idea. I have no new system yet. If I decided to render the configuration with that battery boundary-loaded horn then i...
|
Yes, this Model 19's have brand new foam surround and brand new refinish grills. I know what kind rebound distortions those kind of horns create without surround foam but the miserly that they crate is much more than this. I do not know what kind cr...

I always say do not stress them they do not like it and I always hate third bass. The 10” are particularly are fragile with a power handling of a few watts. It is applicable pretty much to any lover MF driver that pushed to work with the “open b...
|
I kind of in a way used these techniques with my playback during past years. When I used 3-channel Melquiades and had a dedicated ½ 6C33C for MF driver of Macondo I usually tended drive my rights MF channel at slightly higher current then left c...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]This is all because you are a primitive person with very simplistic and amateurish understanding of many things. You need to learn from much more sophisticated people, of cause I mean myself. Take a look: I do not run like...

Head today to another local audio guy who listen to my new
configuration. The reaction was fascinating. He was asking: what the hell I had
done to midrange? Of course, I did nothing, but the question was very accurate.
A lower mid-range changed ve...

The Super Melquiades Amplifier is essentially the 3 parallel running Melquiades amplifiers optimized for driving my Macondo Acoustic System, with line-level or inner-stage filters. This SET uses a full 6C33C at LF output and ½ of 6C33C for HF and MF ...
|
[quote user="haralanov"] Romy, I have never said you have to listen to only one channel during your regular listening sessions. I just mentioned it is the most difficult TEST to pass for any system, including your Macondo. Of course you will listen a...
|
I need to say that I miss my Macondo sound, not the sound
itself but an ability to push a button and have predictably good sound. However,
from the place where I'm staying now, I feel that to have just Macondo result
is not enough for me. I would ...
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do feel that a playback sound has to be built first...The way how I trained myself is to disconnect channels. While I was making Macondo, installing it, moving it and experimenting with it I was frequently disconnecting c...
|
Hi Romy,Well, this is my (and my dad's) first horn system so we're learning/building one step at a time. Our motivation is simple, to use horns as low as possible.The very first DIY configuration was:TAD ET-703TAD 4002GOTO 505TTTAD 1603 Woo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
Not will everyone “get” it, or would agree with it but… where did you see me to care….
Q: What is the worst aspect of sound reproduction?
A: Excessive HF response of playback. A flat response above 5-6kHz is indication...
|
Pierre, yes, I understand it. It kind or irrelevant what they destined for and yes, in domestic applications in context of low power we can use it lower. What I am saying is that as we do use it at extreme low range we deal with slightly overdamped d...

Very interesting company and their GAMMA model looks very promising.
http://www.cessaro-horn-acoustics.com/gamma.html
It is essentially the very same Macondo idea - as I told when you go for 4-5 ways horn loaded installation then there are not a lo...

Recently Macondo was altered and converted into… nope, not into a Super Macondo :-) but in a “Larger Macondo”. The Super Macondo it will be when I resolved how to implement time delays along with a low pass flirter at midbass horn, that would enable ...

[quote user="haralanov"] Some time ago I also thought my upper bass channel is flawlessly integrated, but when I added another, symmetrically arranged UB driver (over my WR driver), I quickly understood the new configuration is MUCH more expressive a...

[quote user="Kcct82"] Hey guys, I bought the Goto 505TT with S150 horn brand new over 2 years ago. Guess what? I'd still be in sonic shit if I followed the 200-1000hz "recommendation". The 505TT does not perform well below 400hz and when I final...

My sub-bass amp is back but I am not sure if I am comfortable with it. The guy from QAudio did a wonderful job to fix my modified B-2 power amp and now I have my amp for ULF with passive line level filter in it. So, Now I have two identical, fully fu...

I was yesterday drawing plans for the Zaratustra II’s chassis and was wondering how I might use it. The Zaratustra II turned out to be a little Monster, efforts-wise and expanses-wise. I hope it will demonstrate some results that will rectify the eff...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still, I did not mention the most important thing about my new midbass horn. This most important and the most astonishing new characteristic of Sound I did not pursue and I got it purely accidently. I did not talk ab...

It was exactly how as I imagined - the Injection Channel worked very-very well. The electricity was good, close to wonderful. I calibrated everything and decided to spend a few hours just listening some tonally complex things. The Injection Channel m...
