Hi Romy and thanks a lot for the always interesting topics and discussions going on... I'm quite new to DPoLS and consider the approach of "obtaining sound in a room" more than "speakers positioning" - too often to WAF fullfillment and aesthetics, th...

-Background- Enspired by Jeffery Jacksons system as displayed @ VSAC, I'm building a five-way horn system. Tapped horn for up to ~80Hz; w/ Eminence driver 65Hz Tractrix from ~80Hz to ~400Hz w/ fane 8"; 250Hz LeCleach from ~400Hz to ~2...

I wasn't trying to critique Bert, or even get into an in-depth critique on the Swing, more Compression Driver configurations -- vertical vs. angled, and coaxial, (and maybe other factors which affect Sound). But I'm more and more real...

(..in between errands..)In respects to whether or not using both the front and rear energy will work, I will have to listen for myself. As I commented earlier elsewhere in this thread, an arrangement using two drivers may prove to be the better...

It called after an African mountain but the guy sells his drivers out of French ebay.

Hi Roman!So, an SG-37FRP finally dropped on yr. laps;-) - glad it happened: not because you're now part of an Olympus-like lobby, but because you'll be able to judge with yr. own ears, much, MUCH better than theorically speculating on this or that......

[quote user="twogoodears"] Horns drivers from home listening are, must be differently built from industrial/P.A. drivers, period. [/quote] Yes and no. Yes, they might be, or even must be different, but can you elaborate on this idea in context of GOT...

YL 75000 has heavy phase plug indeed , rca style (see sketch) while 1250 ( I never had one) gets a fixed metal dome equivalent to spherical piece on 75000 and rca plugs without conical shape pointing the exit of throat. Ironi...

I think first, it needs clarifying that rich is only planning to use the driver from 50 to 250.. it will surely play, and play well, up into the k's.. I'd be very surprised if it didn't play all the way up to the 4kHz of most phenolics.. as to t...

I wonder if anyone recognizes the drivers of the Cessaro Horn Acoustics? I thought that I know all of them but looking at Cessaro’s compression driver I have no idea what it is and I feel that my ego severally hurts. The pictures on the Cessaro site ...

I have re-read your post and your tone sugests that field coil drivers wi be used by manufacturers purely for their marketing appeal and not for any sonic improvement, Thomas Woschnick has just taken delivery of a pair of Cessaro Beta's which u...

Hello to all Good Sound Club Members, and special thanks to Romy The Cat.
We are a Polish audio company started in 2011.
For now we have two tractrix horns available - 400 Hz and 600 Hz. Next week we also should have 115 ...

What distinguishes the Nextel drivers from most of their competitors is the strong damping, both of the whole system (Qm) and the cone (short settling time for a paper cone, nothing that could be called a resonance). According to the theories of some...

I have noticed that after playing music through speakers, the sound warms up and becomes more dense and relaxed. It would be an experiment to let the system stay "on" for an equivalent amount of time without playing music through speakers to hear the...

The 6moons just announced that that The Orgue Company made 6.5" driver after the similar Mitsubishi driver:
"The original Diatone P-610 was made by Mitsubishi beginning in 1947 until 1992. The Diatone P-610 has sold widely in the world for 50 years ...

Wojtek, I am indeed hemmed in by the fricking electricity these days, to the extent that it is about impossible to hold on to a baseline for reference. And the Lowthers only make the problem more apparent.Yes, I still wonder about how I wo...

I don't know where this goes, so I'm just starting it as a new thread; please move (or even edit or delete) as appropriate. After reading too many wondourus reviews of ceramic driver speakers in general, and only having heard two pair, one...

Ultimately, as I have said in other threads, different people hear in different ways which will necessarily compel them to gravitate to different audio solutions.
We have to ask, when there are multiple paths to an audio solution, is the cost pr...

Bill, I am happy that you've improved your bass. As Romy mentioned in an earlier post about Bruckner, RTA is just one tool, and we have to listen and hear results with Music we know and love. When you told of the disappearing S2s, I was going to ment...

Well, whatever you do with your loudspeakers of with you whole playback system is kind of irrelevant if your drivers are not right. In my view the drivers are the very much heart of playback but in case of High-Efficiency and particularly horn-loaded...

Adrian,
If you are still in MF frustrations then I have something that you might find interesting. Recently I pick up in UK a pair of Vitavox S3 drivers. They out to be with original metal cones. I do not need them but the price was too good to let ...

[quote user="drdna"]Very interesting, it is certainly worth a try. Do you have the information on frequency response, impedence, etc? [/quote]http://website.lineone.net/~empson/S3.html...

[quote user="Vasyachkin"]
compression drivers are the way to go as far as i am concerned but obviously performance depends on the horn lens.
my beef with ET-703 is that i don't understand its horn or whatever it is. if not an explana...

Fantastic idea, but then you would need two drivers per channel, no? ...

When you get a horn that will work i will trade for a couple weeks!I don't think wide band drivers are the ideal way to do things but the most cost effective way to injoy good sound i would like to make another pair to crossover from 3k to 10k.some...
