I would like to add to my previous posts that the situation I described above made virtually imposable to correlate experiences of different people have with different drivers. If you for instance use your JBL driver and I use my TOA driver for the s...

user="martinshorn"] What Klaus also highlighted, is the importance to
him to unlimit dynamics - in order to achieve the most live-alike sound. First
of all, he noticed that Goto pleases him the most with uncompressed transient
attacks more...

I suppose I gave up fairly quickly on the 12" WR drivers, for reasons I cited earlier. But good things I've continued to hear from them, and Haralanov's shared experience, have kept me coming back to the 12", doing a sort of focused listening th...

[quote user="Paul S"]Again, I am NOT a collector - at all. I am only in it for the music[/quote]I am not a collector too. I collect some very specific drivers only to take some good parts out of them which are not available anywhere else. I do not c...

Hmmmm, not sure what to say in this case. From a higher view (and do correct me if I am wrong), you seem to have a general dislike for Fostex drivers. I can also sympathize that some of them are hard to listen to. In any case, you bought an exp...

I would like the people who read this site and those others whohave genuine interest in Vitavox understand that that subject of old Vitavox production is a bit tricky and I would not be surprised if the truth never be known. There is not such a thing...

Jorge,I would hope that the specifications of the Fane 8M drivers would not depart from the specifications of the old 8Ms that you have helpfully attached here. I just sent the pdf file to your email directly, not having seen that you had posted it h...

[quote user="be"] The best driver I have heard is the TAD 4003.
It does not use the secondary resonance of the suspension, as described by Duke LeJeune above for the TAD 4001-4002, to extend the response towards 20 kHz, but has a natural roll off fr...

Hi RomyWe build horns anyway some one would like , i have been making the horns that are in the pic for me + the drivers that it use the drivers are a mid bass driver are a6" alum field coil driver i like the sound of field coil magnets +...

OK, Petar, I was finally able to take some time yesterday to focus and meditate on this. I remembered a host of "old" drivers from my past (not old at the time...) that, if memory serves, sounded rather muffled and slow, with humped response, as "he...

Rakesh, I moved your post to this thread as I feel it is more relevant here, I hope you do not mind. You ask yours the very same question that I ask myself. I do not have definitive answers to them:

Recently there was probably nothing as low in audio as the BS surrounded Kharma loudspeakers. Each single step Kharma takes is further and further in-depth Kharma into the realm of bogusness. It is not that I find that “Kharma the Manufacturer” or “K...

I spans last night some time measuring all my Vitavox 15-incers drivers, inspecting them, matching them and trying to find perfect pair. I would probably get involve in Ménage à trios and will sleep with them if I were able to arrange it. Since the ...

Gordan, I think you are missing the accent of what I meant to say. The Class A or not is not important for compression drivers and the S3 in particularly. I mean it is important and it much be ONLY class A but I do not see any SS amps switching in cl...

Be, there might be any number of reasons for listening to speakers more or less on or off axis, but I think in the case of drivers firing early across the axes of other drivers there are identifiable issues that can be heard as "problems" by some lis...

Paul,Actually they do not sound different. As shown in everyone's tests, those objective measures of performance do not change more than you might expect two different drivers of the same type, manufacturer and production run to sound. What changes a...

Ygoh, Most of compression drivers have phase plug. A phase plug is very genomic center line oriented devise. A phase plug must be parallel to diaphragms and perpendicular to the axis of the driver. Practically all compression drivers have beggin...

I have been playing around with speakers for a long time, and things started snapping when I got into horns. I have a system right now with an upperbass horn from 140 hz turned form MDF up to around 700 hz, to another horn, and another and a super t...

[quote user="Jorge"]I will be dubiuos about the slanted enclosure if not done properly, all drivers must be time aligned and since they are playing the same frequency, deficiencies in time alignment become more obvious. I made a slanted enclosure b...

[quote user="Jeffrey Jackson"] Also, I had never dreamed of a driver with a variable compliance resulting in a variable free air resonance... such a toy would be wonderful with custom midbass and bass horns... [/quote]
It is why I use cone drivers f...

Haralanov, I do not think that the “information” that you found is indicative of anything. If they changed coils and diaphragms on their LOMO drivers (and I presume that if they change the diaphragms then they did not keep the LOMO original suspensio...

Well, I do not care one way or another and I truly have no “concern”. I have my drivers; I think I have some spare – so why would I care about new productions. It is very possible that the new productions will be identical to the old production or ev...

I'm moving my two finished LF boxes (connected as 1 channel) around the room, trying to set them up to play more frequency-flat than I've been able to make them with only one box per channel.Putting one in the ceiling and the other on the floor, both...

This project started in 2007 as an attempt to demonstrate that drivers different from the widely accepted low-Qts ones could be used in a back-loaded horn enclosures.Visaton BG13P, a cheap and easy-to-get (at least in Europe) driver was chosen, basic...

[quote user="haralanov"]When all of these 5-6-7 different types of distortion mechanisms are eliminated (I mean lowered), one has the opportunity to hear the unmasked/undistorted tone of his bass. I deliberately used the word “opportunity” because no...

Dear All,I wish to commence gathering the components and finding the craftsmen necessary for my DIY speaker project, but wished to bring my proposal before this forum in order to establish whether it's intrinsically worthy, and whether any simple imp...

[quote user="cv"] That said, I do have is a single 160Hz/1.5" finally up and running on a compression driver, and it's a different world - stunning. Actually the results are exactly as JJ described. [/quote] The JJ, is it Jeffrey Jackson? I have no i...

Robert, what I meant is following: when you will be collecting requirements for you own drivers specification and will evaluate the implementation methods then you need to have you own identity what you are trying to do. I might post a lot of differe...
