Yes, Guy, thanks. The images are making waves for day among Russian audio sites. Unfortunately in Russia expensive playback is a part of “successful mad room décor” and prominent Russian love to pose wearing ridiculously expensive watches, behind the...

I pulled these images from a Japanese 2nd hand store. I understand that Goto used to work at YL so I thought these images might go with Johan's description about the insides.

Audio Federation have publish some images from the Silbatone room at CES, even it is in their new idiotic format of the “magazine” but they still visible.

It is 4” exit and reportedly goes down to 27Hz. I do not know what a lot about this diver but it might be a good driver for 40Hz horn. 4” into 40hz? God, it has to be at least 16 feet long horn! I would take my head off to somebody who goes for it. A...

I am looking at those images and a bit puzzled. Do the tweeters attached to their mounting board under an angle or they are paralleled with the mounting board? It is very difficult to judge from those images. It looks like the tweeters attached to th...

Romy quotes in blue (pulled from the "Adding one more channel to the Macondos" thread) "1) Make sure that your cone is properly center in a gap. It is very important as misaligned cone will do compression at bottom end"

I've meant for some time to add a few shots of the ULF channels. Here's the first one; the photos were taken at my old place.Sized to fit through the door of the elevator (barely).Baffle and lid cut with diamond blade.Getting that lid up to seal the ...

I suspect the APS does more or less the same that my friend proposed. It probably has a class D amp which makes some kind of PWM with a so so smoothing circuit, hence the tooth saw trace of the voltage line, some PS which probably is a swit...

The way I would handle this is make my own 4" exit compression driver. What I mean is select a woofer with known good sonic qualities that match your requirments. Then make a phasing plug for it. My past attemps have been decent. However, I have noti...

If you ask me the compression drivers is like the jbl 2420/2470 design only with an other back chamber. And the low freq driver really makes me think of an old alnico driver of jbl 2220A http://www.lansingheritage.org/images/jbl/specs/pro-comp/2420/p...
