Sorry Romy. Which loudspeaker are we talking about? Do you have a picture at all?
As for the Cessaro mod, it didn't sound very different to me - certainly not worth the effort. I'd be interested to know where they crossover to the ET-703. The Alph...

[quote user="Paul S"]Romy, no doubt the following derives wholly from my ignorance on the subject, but I have not been able to get away from a sense of "variable compression" with any compression horns I have tried. By "variable compression" I ...

Hi Skushino,1) In your post above regarding certain(?) of Bruce's products, can you please identify *what* crossover parts you received or heard (in context of given system) which you feel are "low quality" ..?2) Which model & ...

It is over 2 weeks as the crossover parts for my Altec 21S modification are sitting in my house. It would be 30 min fix but I still did not do it – juts lazy. I want for how to keep the Altec low path crossover but I the crossover for MF I would like...

somehow i missed that moment in macondo development when you introduced S3 as a low mid driver so this came as a surprise to me - what i remember is that you didn't write so favourably of S3 back in 2004 due to its ceramic magnet. but it's good t...

[quote user="jamikl"] My problem is the length of a mid bass horn and I can see no way of doing it other than bending it in a curve or mounting it down facing to the floor as in one you showed, or goingclosed box which I don't really want to do. I t...

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...

[quote user="decoud"]Perhaps I misunderstand the unity horn, but I did not mean my suggestion to depend on summation: the idea simply is that one horn flows directly into the other, rather than being discrete; you could have the bottom or top half al...

Hello Romy and everyone here, Thanks again for your thoughts on the large horns. It seems best to start a new thread, as previous threads dealing with the "10-Footer" originally began as discussions of other subjects. Romy, you may want to move previ...

After much consideration I desired to get my test crossover. I chose when for Velodyne SMS-1 that someone pitched at this site before. The unit has 6, 12, 18, 24, or 48 dB/octave low-pass filters that I need and runs up to 200Hz. I do not think that ...

Romy, Some very good points here... if I downloaded the correct schematic from your site for the 6-channel Melq amp (also has the term DSET in the title) then you have created a 6-channel SET amp with built-in crossover points. Your first ...

[quote user="Paul S"] The "calm HF" effect is something I have long sought but seldom experienced from repro, and I have blamed the amps as much as the ribbons. Mere HF extension is not enough. Hard to say whether the amp or the rib...

Ok, spent a half of the nigh to working with my IB problem
and discovered that everything that I do now is a complete mess.
First of all the crossover that I used is not what I though
it is.
I found my old there from which I learned...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, interesting, I did drop the crossover frequency but I do not like the result. I was driven in different configurations and experimented from the current 13kHz to 7.5kHz. As soon I drop below ~ 11.8kHz then the overl...

Yep, it is a lot of work and it might look like not well organized work but there is good part in all of it – when you will be do you will be done and you would never do it again. Practice shows that those custom tailored systems are made and then us...

[quote user="skushino"] The sub arrived before the main speakers, so I practiced integration with my existing speakers. They are rated full range to 20Hz, so I expected little change in performance. Instead, what I noticed with the additi...

So first in line, the horns. They stressed out that particularly the horn flares where not within the comfort zone of their own developer team.That triggered the recruitment of Bruce Edgar. The design is only his, and they took it 1:1. Of course too...

[quote user="twogoodears"]Yes, maybe the 120 db/octave is THE trick for complex multi-ways systems of highest resolution, yet this barbaric:-) slope can ONLY be achieved by digital domain crossovering... unfortunately, as a satisfied user of TacT RCS...

[quote user="Paul S"] If Marko "needs" 3rd order, is somerthing else amiss? [/quote]It is not amiss but an area where the things should be explored. What I like about horns that they have very little ambiguity and if everything is done “properly” the...
