After looking at the pictures at http://www.webbtjanst.se/lenco/loudspeakers.aspI'm feeling like it is both your room and the unfinished horn throat. Maybe more room related. If there is a rough section of your horn throat with "steps" of 3/4" m...

[quote user="fulcrum"]I couldn't figure out how to get more than one picture to upload so I put several in a word document - hope that works You talked about organic materials as possibly improving sound - how about organic shapes?Since a signifi...

Romy, first thanks for your help to fix the picture upload.I know the Whisperwave material quite well - it is an open cell melamine foam. It has very high absorption but is also expensive.I think you are trying to do two different things simultaneou...

The direction of lansing was the main factor of speakers not W.E. Just look at the phase plug on the W.E HF drivers and look at the phase plug on the lansing Hf drivers this is were it all went down hill. Your mid and Hf drivers from lansing took the...

[quote user="ayebee"]An observation that might only be of superficial interest to the thread: I don't think the speakers use Klangfilm woofers. The pictures are a bit grainy, but the dustcaps look far too big for the original Bionor woofers. I would ...

Thanks for the wise, simple instructions, Roman, also useful to others, I believe... that's what I actually do since I - 'twas ONLY 15 months ago... - became conscious of the limits of my tuning-by-ear and got my IVIE IE-30 with Class A measurement m...

"... and I do not know if 3A/167M is better than anything else and I do not see why the metal socket is necessarily better then plastic – the socket is not the part of the tube."As you know, the 437A is like an on-steroids ECC83, ALL glass built, no ...

As I said, I do not know anything about insulation and I brought all of it to attention to my carpenter. Furthermore he read all that you guys said and he stated that you all have no idea what you are talking about, that was the actual quote. He did...

Hmmm…. With all elegance and I would say pictures’ explanation that Petar gave I do not know if I agree that the phenomena he described has to do a lot with driver. For sure the quality of a driver itself is important, very important but there are so...

Here are some of my observations regarding the Wolf von Langa RCA 1428 replica. I long time wondered where mr. von Langa gets his phase correction elements and the diaphragm for his RCA 1428 replica. It's obvious that a niche-manufacturer such as W. ...

Thanks, Jorge, but what you propose and what is done at the pictures your posted has nothing to do with Infinite baffle. This configuration rather reminds me the 4th order bandpass. It is popular setting but it is not what I like as the bass coming f...

[quote user="Paul S"] I took a couple of pictures, but I can't figure out how to upload them, just yet. [/quote]Hi, Paul. Take a look here http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1120 [quote user="Paul S"]I took out the phase plug, a...

Yes, Guy, thanks. The images are making waves for day among Russian audio sites. Unfortunately in Russia expensive playback is a part of “successful mad room décor” and prominent Russian love to pose wearing ridiculously expensive watches, behind the...

[quote user="oxric"] And why did you not mention a Group Buy for ScanSpeak drivers earlier? I would have started one ages ago! [/quote] This is all because you are a primitive person with very simplistic and amateurish understanding of many things....

Linked is a brief article that categorizes the the portable audio player options available Q4 2013 as clearly and succulently as any I have seen. It also includes some portable dac/amp combos for your mobile phone. Of course, DSD is a hot buzzword re...

I do feel that they are all worthless but when you are having lunch at your deck and would like to read something light and not serious then you have few options. I usually read Microsoft technology preview pages or the TheOnion.com. Alter...

Tom,
even though I understand and sympathize how your enjoyment of some “sounds” reference to you experiences that you had in your childhood but it hardly has anything to do with the definition and purpose of the real Sound. Also, I have to note tha...

IMO A 60Hz attempt is too low and a 120Hz attempt too high. This is a difficult task, that of properly integrating horn loaded mid-bass withD.R subs.What type and slope crossover are you using ?I'm hoping you are going active here ?How much air can ...

Thanks, Guy. JC Morrison? I am not familiar with this character well. All that I know about him the he pop up usually around Joe Roberts and they perfume act of public saliva liking. It does not say anything about his amps, however, neither about his...

Tuga,I do not know what JMLC had written in that paper – I can’t read French but from looking at the pictures I might only presume that he was trying to prove or disprove the Point Source idea by looking at the souses live sound vs. recorded-and-then...

[quote user="decoud"] One of the problems with horns is the inflexibility of frequency cut-off: you are limited to a discrete number equal to the number of horns you have. This makes experimentation difficult without having an absurdly large array of...
|

Interesting, Ulf.
If your horn runs up-to 500-700Hz (somewhere like mine) then what kind “beaming” you meant? Frankly speaking I did not detect any beaming at those frequencies, quite in contrary – it is very difficult to make anything to beam at un...

Romy, I actually feel a little sheepish that my process did not include a multi-media map for others to follow, if they choose to, although Troels already did a great job of exactly that. I did post construction pictures and explanations on Troels Gr...

I do not mean visualizing the sound waves or music, that is a relatively smile task. What I mean is a visualizing of Sound. To depict sound is very finical; it is like depicting of wind, did you see any good attempts?
I was sent to an Asian si...

I got from web someone’s pictures of how that dam Russky arm was looking in the turntable. I think some of you would be looking and wondering…
Anyhow, 3 year later after spending some time with this arm I found myself to run this arm very lit...
