Adrian,
This it truly complicated question. The Titans’ upperbass (the better one, curved, with 12” driver) is not realty HF capable and it makes a MF driver need to go all the way down to probably 500Hz (I do not know what Bruce dies in the crossov...

I'm giving myself high fives today for nearly solving the broken piano sound in the room. :-)I'm not sure what fixed it, but I believe it to be a shelf half filled with records + two sofas and a carpet.There is room for improvement but it is a g...

Yes Paul,DSEP is planned. Actually I have already experimented with it only with the 12" Fane neodymium midwoofer that covers 80-1K and using 1 cap for the low pass filter. I really like what it does. I am comparing how it works with ceramic and neod...

[quote user="el`Ol"]Romy, are you going to verify the decision of using fragile vintage drivers?E.g. by trying JBL midbass drivers?They would be closer to the design philosophy of the Fane Studio 8M.http://www.jblpro.com/components/maxout.htm#2020H[/...

Hi Romy,You wrote:"They tunes for 115Hz and pushed in room down to ~95Hz one channel and 150Hz another."So do your horns have 115Hz flare frequency? (and have the rear chamber tuned for 115Hz as well)From the pictures the horns lo...

Romy,I am in agreement with your observations. I am not certain I will end up using specific crossover slope, like 6db or whatever. It's what I prefer in my current setup. I will try to have make a design that will work with this type of crossover --...
