[quote user="Romy the Cat"]So, we plugged the whole system into PP2000 with exception of bass amps. The sonic result was very exactly what I predicted. The fun part was with bass. Before, when the system was plugged into the wall the bass was reasona...

A little update : Reading some recent comments in the "Configuration from Italy" thread: http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?postID=12605#12605 prompted me to share what I've recently done. Yes its an obvious thing to do, but it took...

Thanks Romy,Yes, I received your advice in the past privately regarding proper size for 1808 enclosure, and I thank you for pointing me in right directions. Yes, sealed box is simple calculation using e.g., WinISD. I am experimenting with&n...

[quote user="Paul S"] None of these units except the original IDAT improved on my analog bass. Although it was hard to tell about bass harmonics with the music I heard, the original IDAT kicked ass with deep bass and absolute SPL. [/quote] Paul, ...

Re-reading, I realise you stated your preference for a sealed bass array only in relation to Dreyer's bass horn, not to bass horns in general....

This is funny. I closed my house on March 16 and today is March first. It is lost a year passed and only now I begin to feel that my playback is back. The status “back” it means that al major problems are filtered out and I just turn playback on and ...

It might not be directly related to the subject of this thread but I would like to pass this comment. Over the years of observing the better and worst in upper bass I come to an observation that the front loaded horns with dampened cones might not be...

Rakesh, during the last year, there were some very important moments in my own realizations about the methods of low frequency reproduction. I totally abandoned my Scanspeak bass modules and now they are resting in my garage. I intentionally have my ...

Since I do not do SACD and stay in PCM world I always wonder what the optimum sampling rate might be. As I told I discard the 48X as never was necessary rate. So, we have 44.1K, 88.2K, 176K and 352K… Surely we are out of 16-bit world – a move f...

This sound very reasonable

Rakesh,Thank you for your kind remarks. I appreciate the close scrutiny you have given my previous post but I think you are at a stage of system design where many basics of your system should be considered and evaluated before the issues of my po...

[quote user="Paul S"]Ironically, the "best" musical bass I have gotten is from the ML2s 16 Ohm taps, which seems to fly in the face of both the concept and the obvious problems that the Z/load creates. What I am saying is that despite the "kitt...

Hi Paul,I'm really not sure how else to explain it, but essentially it is "free air". The driver does not become influenced by a defined amount of "trapped air" in an enclosure, thus, it pretty much maintains it's free air specs. In my case, the driv...

[quote user="Jorge"] …Most of us are using some sort of cabinet for the LF range. Romy was using the Scanspeak up to 75 hz crossed to his UBH, Haralanov is using those wonderful 23" woofers on an infinite bafle, and Jessie is using the McCauley 18"...

Hello:I would like to ask this forum for advise.I picked up a very simple and cheap RTA and decided to use it to listen to my speakers. It is 1/3 octave RTA, so I know Romy will say it is useless. It may not be very useful, but I start with nothing s...

The lower bass configuration in my room is a bit interesting below is the bass diagram (under 50Hz)
As you can see the allocation of hot bass sports is superbly favorable in the room. There is pretty much no bass anywhere in the ...

As some of you know I’m playing last couple days with Red 10” Tannoys from 60s. My selection of 10” was not accidental -I would like to get as less as possible of that “Tannoy bass” but I did run very far the “Reds” turned out to have 27Hz open...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Even though quantivly and structurally bass is correct but it is not what I am looking. [/quote] Last night I got rid the SMS crossover. I built in the 28Hz, 12dB per octave crossover in the Yamaha B2 amp that I use f...

I also find SET bass to be the overall best I have heard - at its best, and this has been, as you observe, when the amp is well within its comfort zone. And this seems to remain true even when Z out and speaker load "matching" are har...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] What really surprised me was how good everything sounded with no filter on the upper-bass horns, and all drivers connected to the same (8 Ohm) tap; sure I'm getting too much mid-range from the upper-bass horn, but its...

I have with bass not a problem but dilemma. I do not have problematic bass but I have a dilemma how to supplement my current bass with ULF without affecting my current bass. Adding ULF defuses my current bass, renders the bass phasing to be more ...

Would not a 9ft-11ft long bass horn path (tapped horn or any horns) cause a sonic problem if not physically time aligned with the upper bass or mid bass channel? The only way to fix that would be to place the bass horn 9-11ft closer TO YOU than other...

Yes, I promised to tell about, so here is comes.
The past Sunday I woke up at 6AM and first intention to answer to myself what is wrong with my ULF. I had wonderful sound with absolutely wonderful and the most important very proper bass. Howe...

I'm also of the opinion that the bass is one of the most critical and most challenging parts of playback. Not talking about quantity, but rather the quality of bass reproduction. My approach has been to split the bass in two parts - Low and...
