Post Subject: I have good feeling about this project.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 8/18/2021
My idea of Dunnoy loudspeaker took an interesting turn. I would like to capitalize upon what I discovered above an to vandalize my woofer towers, factoring Tanoy Red in it. So, it will ended up with Reds working in a half of wolfed towers with one of the woofer as passive radiator and another part of the speakers (acoustically divided and sealed) with two wolfer drivers loaded actually and lowpass at 40Hz. I have a lot of fun of doing kit as I do not follow any loudspeaker wisdom, whatever it might be but do it explicitly by intuition, listening and reacting. The first objective is to have cold-running speaker for SS amplifier that I might use as a pilot, to turn and keep my main system running is just too much logistics. It is not that I have objectives to downsize, absolutely not, just curious if I can get “there” with small form factor. The second objective is to use somehow woofer tours that I love so much and keep justified in my listening room. The third objective is to take advantage of 10” Tanoy Red driver that certainly have its own beauty. And the last objective is that I do have a lot of pleasure while I'm doing it.

It is very important to note, at least to me, that my Dunnoy experiment has strictly self-entertaining purpose, general interest in Audio and is not driven abandoning of my devotion to multi-channel horns and DSETs. Whatever I will be ending up will be very much secondary result. It just happened then I have some good tools lying around and I enjoy a process of audio creation. I will continue post the progress. I know exactly where I would like to end up and it will not be a “perfect” loudspeaker. If it goes successfully then it would be “fuller” range implementation off the best Tannoy Red can do this an attempt to suppress some Reds problems.  I have very good feeling about this project.
