Post Subject: Why different rules??Posted by martinshorn on: 5/23/2017
Hi Romy
That's an interesting point! Very interesting. Why mids and highs should have a super light membrane and strong magnet to follow the rule of precise movement, speed, resolution, etc....While in lows its better to run muddy with heavy soft mass and weak magnets?In general the same rule should apply. But in respect to the wavelength size should increase. Mass follows size so unpreventable higher, but ideally proportional to the size.
I do agree on firmness. running my Khorn with a Fostex PA38, thats got a super light 15 inch paper straight cone, 80mm coil with short winding for only 1mm xmax, incredible 70 grams mass including all moving elements plus airload. It is firm and i consider the firm lean perception while same response as a sign of clean, faithful precision, missing the "boom".
