[quote user="haralanov"] Also instead of using electrical tape, try to seal the back of the driver with a 2mm thick sheet of microperforated tonewood and then glue a leather layer over it. Then you could also pierce multiple tiny holes in the leather...

I've been thinking about how I am going to wire these Bass Cannons as well as the horns on the horn stack. For some time now I have preferred ribbon/foil speaker cables for the relatively low sensitivity speakers I have been using. The reason I bel...

Very good. One thing that I would like to note that you might not consider now as you have no practical experience with those things for now. This thing is a personal preference and has no impact to sound. I personally prefer when I sit in my listeni...

I guess I have found a more or less usable new configuration for ULF channel. It is 28Hz, second order, with slightly raised ULF on the transition slope. It sounds quite good. Well, I am not supposed to say this. It doesn’t sound good but it sound pr...

Bud,Thanks for pitching the A45a and FR4.5, I never dealt with both of them and will consider them, though it is slightly disconcerting that all those drivers meant to be wide bandwidth and therefore have too much HF in them. Still, my initial candid...

[quote user="be"]They mention an intricate back chamber for the high frequency unit, maybe thats the primary function of the tube, apart from positioning the unit relative to the rest.[/quote]
I did not read any their descriptions and I do not know ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Stopped by at local audio friend this Sunday and watch some Brunner, Mahler and Wagner at his HT playback. He has integrated playback installation and video is played at his main system. I am not a fan of good quality of v...

[quote user="Ronnie"]I wish I could pin-point the frequencies and explain the effect better. I'll do my best.I want to cover my ears when a Pavarotti sings certain higher notes or some notes when Caballet sings pretty "comfortably".It's like bad PA h...

[quote user="Chirag"] Still, I do miss the dynamic lower MF of the 15" woofer...[/quote] Well, this is it. I really do not know what it is and I (and you) call it “dynamics” but it might be something else that juts appears like dynamics… I did not pl...

I do not know what it is all about as I’m under impression that it you socialize with people on dB-design forum then they will be more responsive about your excitement. I’m not quite sure what the SWING is all about as the guy mentioned and descried ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
Considering the conclusions of my recent experiences that I described in the following thread:http://www.GoodSoundClub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=6876I would like to share some of my observation that the people who would g...

W,
Be careful with Milq’s LF channel. When you go for a dedicated LF SET and make the SET to operate very low then you need very precisely dial in the loading of your out tube with the behavior of your LF drivers/enclosure. Without know the very spe...

OK, I decided to stop today to do what I do as it does not feel like me anymore. For a month as I live in here and have the playback up my playback is a source of great pain and I do not like it. I am accustomed that I turn the thing on and USE it. ...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I have heard Lamm ML2's in a couple of different people's home systems. Did they know how to use them properly? Well either they didn't (quite possible) or the amplifiers simply lacked the virtues I would prefer. [/quote]

[quote user="haralanov"] I think you have found phenomenally good sounding upper bass driver and you are going to build a dedicated quasi-bassreflex channel using it to fill the gap between your line arrays and the upperbass horns... [/quote]

Yesterday I finalized everything, made the crossovers permanent,
arranged the cables, check the phases and levels per each channel and officially
declared to my wide that the listening room setting up is over. Then as the kids
went to bed I decide...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]As I said above your you "experienced today with GOTO" is just your transitional

My primary
interests (when I do purely technical listening) are in the field of psychoacoustics
and the last 2 years I spent a lot of time investigating how the brain reacts
to differently arranged sound sources. The interesting thing is that the ...

OK, sounds reasonable. There are plenty concerns that I would
rise with the speaker idea you proposed. However, lately begin to feel that
many of the things I have stated or might state in audio do not find proper
ears to be herd. It is not that w...

[quote user="de charlus"]Alas, I am too young to have that whole "Mirrorphonics nostalgia" coloring my taste in sound reproduction - still, this is not to say that it cannot be investigated. [/quote] Actually the "Mirrorphonics nostalgia" that some p...

[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...

Discussing the Jessie project we multiple times mention the idea of the large midbass horn handing above MF section. Where else the 7”-9” might be positioned? The rational was to have it positionally contra-react the output of the upperbass horn. It ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
Actually it is not exactly accurate. In the way my Macondo is a magic bullet. If you read carefully old article about Macondo axioms then you will see that one of the major underlying principle...

As I was saying: who the hell need a headphone setup if it does not sound as good as the speakers setup? So it is the way in which I approach the headphone sound. The headphones intrinsically have problem with MF and “wrong bass”. There are ways to d...

[quote user="drdna"] Well, and I have a dozen of them sitting here next to my desk while I am building my Milq amp s-l-o-w-l-y so I guess I will discover my audio intelligence level sometime after the New Year.[/quote]
That is so cool that you...

This is the project that I been thinking to undertake for years. I have motioned about in multiple times that Vitavox’s S2 lower region is very lucrative but unfortunately not exactly useable if the driver run all the way up, unless you are wiling to...

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...
