Yes, I totally agree. In my old place, I had the Druids working in FR with the Berning Siegfried 300B, and they sounded exactly as you say.But I'm hoping that the Berning will cope better driving the Druids with a high-pass filter set to around 150Hz...

Paul, one of the reasons I went for the Orelo was because it's as close to "plug 'n' play" as I can imagine a speaker system being. So I'm not very knowledgeable about its detailed workings. What I do know is this though...There are 3x 15" bass drive...

[quote user="anthony"]Have put all my DHT's on the curve tracer to see if pairs can be matched for preamp duties. [/quote] It was very interesting to read about all of it. If you have a socket for YO186 then you can accommodate all 4V tubes and I si...

[quote user="Kcct82"]I didn't use John Hasquin's tapped horn design, I modeled my own in hornresp for my TAD woofer. I knew I would only need it up to ~55Hz so I was happy to have it flat from 23Hz-70Hz. The lowest crossover point for Behringer DCX 2...

Crossovers are so annoying, about impossible to nail down, and it's almost as though the more you study the problem, the fuzzier the "answer" gets.For now, I would like to more or less forget about "phase" considerations, partly in order to get this ...

[quote user="anthony"]Romy, I
appreciate that this is an old thread now and that you may not remember
everything from your time developing these amplifiers, but I have a (hopefully)
simple question about the upperbass crossover in the schematic ab...

[quote user="serenechaos"] I do not know of importance of enemys death to this topic. [/quote]
Oh, this is a sheer pleasure but do not call that dirt enemy. He is not enemy but way beyond it, he is the person about whom I have a death-wish as ...

[quote user="RF at Ona"] Romy,I might have overlooked something on your site but I understand that your ULF amp is driven directly by the preamp line stage. If that is the case, you may want to consider an old technique for integrating subwoofers...

Well, this is huge mystery in the reproduction of the few first milliwatt and I very much applaud to what Nelson Pass is trying to do. Being muse a proponent of high sensitively and low power I very much experienced with the fact the high power amps ...
|
AlloWell this could be very interesting.... the Melq driver (at lower voltage) direct coupled to a 6C33 cathode follower run at low voltage, high current. Vincent looks like he's running about 80V 500mA, though in this case you'd need to use a r...
|
The idea just came to my mind and it is in a way brilliant. It is not implementable in my playback because my Injection Channel is driver by 1/6 of 6ch Milq and because my Injection Channel is high-passed. However the idea is still conceptually very...
|
Hi Paul,Could you help me understand what you mean?Are you saying that even without a high-pass filter, a <8" driver has an imbalance of 'harmonic development' above and below 150Hz... and that this is not the case above and below 400Hz?If we ...

Scott,[quote user="skushino"]- Remove L-pads from mid and tweeter (sounds a little brighter, yet "more pure" and "better" to my ears) [/quote]Lpad sets the attenuation and this is the parameter that should be tuned without fantasizes and subjectivism...

Continuing to harass the readers of my site and myself with the good news about the performance of my SA8535 driver I would like to post a very educational article about the subject. As I told before, being familiar with sound of ribbons then never i...
|
I was kind of frustrated with some strange high frequency roll off at my HF and Injection channels. It should not happen. The 9H OPT LL1627 in Injection channels should be good up to 23kHz according to my former tests with a full range Milq and the T...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The events of the last 3 days are incredibly stupid, incredibly interesting and very educational. During the last few days I have discovered some very interesting phenomena, ok might be no a phenomena but a behavior, th...

God, I hate to bring this up as it seems you have given up on your quest for better monitors.Maybe I missed a thread somewhere, but reading over earlier posts you were looking for- high efficiency- tone- dynamics- sealed designZu Credenzas have same ...

I've been playing around with High Def Files for a few years.I use an M-Audio recorder to capture concerts, and now that HiDef files are becoming available I have been buying them online.For playback I have been burning DVDs which I play back on a Me...

Ok, now it looks like the amp is operational. I was listing today the individual channels (without tweeter – the 175:1 transformer is coming). The channels do sound very promising… here are some sweeps with the filter on. All channels use well warns ...

I think low power ss design is the only way we can make ss to sound good. in my idea all high power ss design i heard had no emotion in their sound in comparison by good SET designs like AN UK Ankoru.the first SS design that make me happy in comparis...
|
A few days ago a friend of mine and I did spent over an hour to fantasize what might be done if the ULF tube SET is planned. It is not so simple as to drive the tube like 833/GU-48, you will not be able to do with Milq driver. But I also would like d...

I have finished both big horns enough to listen in stereo, and the throats are now much smoother.I'm not using the MF horns, and have been listening all night. It has been a remarkable experience! (well, the inner-me objects and claims there's nothin...
|
I realised this morning that I have done a "not-so-standard" thing in using leftover fibreglass batts for stuffing the tubes. The batts that I have on hand are high density batts, not the low density type of fibreglass that is usually used for stuff...
|
IMO, any sonic benefits from running Lowthers stock are totally swamped by excessive, ragged response that is generally (but not steadily...) rising - a lot - toward HF. There have been many ideas for "taming the Lowther", and here is another one, b...

Looks like I'm back into this again, since, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, Yoshi up and sent me his "neutered" Reps 1 drivers (he surgically removed the whizzers).I started turning my existing Basszilla components and these guys together ...

I got today the Fostex F120A with all latest and greatest modifications on it. I put is in a temp .7 cu feet box with pretty much open back to see what the Fostex will be all about. I drive it from a bad consumer SS, composite-chip Hitachi amp from 8...

I really do not what is gong on there and why. Thorsten's comment that line-level crossovers do not act like speakers’ level crossover confirms what I feel and what some other people suggested me. Yes, the reactance of the crossover component, the in...

Ronnie,
Arranging the driver in a line array is a fierily straight forward thing. Also be advised that the arrays will less likely work across a short wall, and you need to use a long wall. Generally it is imposable to advise anything as any rooms a...

Here is my proposal for an ideal horn system. The concept derives from the really of the horns as I know them, the available park of the drivers, the drivers’ real capacity and from… everything else that I might comment upon if you would not figure o...

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"]I will be laughing my ass off when I visit the GoodSoundClub website and read about a certain Cat who was finally motivated into tuning the ports on the Mini's specifically to "adjust" Macondo's sound! I am reminded of...
