[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Rakesh,Two things I see that may or may not turn out to be an issue:1) The relatively narrow stance of the front wheels; depending on how heavily you load the top of the frame, stability could be a bit on the limit when mo...

I was thinking about a space-economical way to arm playback with midbass 50Hz horn. It is not that I am into it myself but conceptually I was wondering how to put all of necessarily things within a minimum compromise in minimum footprint. I came up w...

Last week and this weekend I been spending some considerable amount of time and efforts to do what I intended to do for long time – to finalize the Macondo’s ideas. What I mean is that with all Melquiades progress, the fundamental channel, with Injec...

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...

@N-set I was replying to pauls comment about giving up on blending passive radiators and trying to say I was surprised how effortless the 8565 integrates upwards into the tannoy but integrating down into another channel there is no hope. I think the ...

Yes, Peter,
I know that in the Steinberg WaveLab use only Bob Katz’ metering system, still I thought that if they are cooperate then Katz’ Ambience Recovery might be available as a standalone plug-in. It is kind of suspiring that Mr. Katz was able t...

From another perspective it has film capacitors and the non-polarized Nichicon Muse caps. They take up-to to 30 days to burn-in. So, it might be just too fresh. I would not say that it kills everything – it is just a very-very slightly brighter, enou...

Which are huge, they not even sound as the same orchestra into the same venue. I don't know if my computer rig, which I must use to play the 24/88 files, using a pair of SL600 into a very small room, would qualify themselves as a whole injection chan...

In continuation to the "A new round of Pacific’s DAC listening" post.... I have a number of revisions of this little contest between two DACs in this thread and in other threads. In all of them the Lavry 924 has a little edge over Pacific Microso...

The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of time I am afraid. Let pretend that tomorrow I will build/buy some kind of speaker that would do the perfect ULF channel ...

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 ...

It is difficult to generalize but I will. As much as ribbons with each hertz down sound more and more unpleasant the low power SET amps with each hertz down in bass region more and more and more loosing ground. Ok, I am not taking about the real bass...

[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...

I have order 4cu feet sealed enclosure for two 15 drivers. It
is relatively small box but I need to hit minus 6-8 dB at 50Hz. The collection
of the drivers I have would be following: Vitavox AK51 and 15/40, Altec 416B
and 515B. I like Vitavox tone...

I would like to overview the content of my thoughts on the subject. I feel that the first phase of my interest in single-stage Milq vs. DHT is over and I can make some observations.
The subject turned out to be more interesting and more changi...

I kind of was thinking…
If a good DHT is able to give a magnitude of Absolute Tone that IDHT is
not able then it might be good… But. I do not use Single-stage
Melquiades amp itself but it supplemented with my Injection Channel.
The Inject...

Thanks, JJ.
I do not necessary feel that it should be any difference between the early Hal-O production and the new version – they are essentially are the same products with different descriptions. For new dampers should be better only for lar...

I have so much fun today. I sent the whole kids with their nanny
and mom to a Boston children museum along with ants and with grandparents and deeded

I was promising to tell stories of my audio miracles with no
order of chronology or importance, so here is another one. I think it was in
2002-2003. I was transitioning from Lamm amplifications to Melquiades and was contemplating
to introduce a DH...

Thanks for this one Romy, very interesting...it sorta ties together several things that I have been thinking about lately. I guess I am lucky that the Bass Cannons can be run off 9w from the DSET bottom channel and from memory I get about 115dB at 1...

I had today a long listening session. I listened a whole Mahler Second and I can tell you that I was the best upperbass I ever heard from a playback. I am not kidding. The upperbass literally despaired in the new room but what it is being called up...

2011 will be a busy audio year for me. I will have a nice large space 28 feet x 20 feet x 11 feet which I am free to modify for audio. The walls are 150 years old irregular stone the floor is cement and the ceiling is composed of structural...

I helped Romy shuffle around some hardware and connect some cables yesterday. That damned table weighs about 100.000 pounds. This was one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to see live, in-person how Romy thinks about audio and incorporates th...

Romy,
I'm very pleased to learn that you've got your Injection Channel done.
I assume the above illustration is not indicative of the way you have the Tannoy Red aligned with regard to the other drivers, as it appears to be sitting out in front...
