The horn mouth will be 3-4 foot from the wall but you are right the MF/HF will be closer if i dont delay them so i can bring them out from the wall. If i line them up purely acousticly then they will move forward at least two more feet which puts the...

Before I answer some of the points raised....I have recently updated my website with details of the microphone - pictures will tell much of the story.This will answer some questions and raise some more.The short version of the concept is this: by aco...

Ok, so I'm not really going to talk about the show itself, but more of some interesting things I learned. Yes, I did have a room, but that's not the point. I was able to borrow some speakers from Azzolina. They are of the unusual Lo...

Perhaps there are ways to horn load Lowthers that do not screw up the sound, but I don't know of any, and there are other reasons, as well, for not asking LF from Lowthers.For me the best thing about the high-pass-limited Lowther DX4 in OB is th...

[quote user="kodomo"]I dont think a standart klipschorn would satisfy the cat. I had one, then I heavily modified it and in the end I built my full scale horn system. I still keep that modded khorn system as a second system.If I may suggest, if you u...

Josh, I never tried exactly what you are describing, and I don't understand how it would "cancel errors" in real life, but you should try it. For a similar-but- opposite take, have you seen the Danley multi-driver horns yet? There's more on these -...

Since the greatest differences in audio are among listeners, there is no need to argue whether such things are audible.However: While it no stretch to say from personal experience that such things are audible, it is very much a stretch to s...

Hi Romy and othersI am in the initial stage of planning a new home, which will have a dedicated music room. I noticed Romy in another thread you were impressed with the rough stone walling. This looks like a great way to disperse reflections. What I ...

I'd like to ask if anyone sees and appreciable problem with the following.I'm trying to arrange a 4-way, 3 horns sitting on top of a big bass box. As I have it the 42cm midrange horn (800-8k) is in front of the 95cm lower midrange horn (250-800hz). T...

Moreart, if you ask my opinion then let me to decide what is relevant. Your idea of “how” your horn work is self-delusional in my view as whatever you imagine you do go overridden by deficiency of your mouths and by other problems that your enclosure...

When i Moved in my new house in july 2000, it took me 6 months to get my speakers and general system togeather and working. The narrow band that your vitavox 15 inchers will be working in, how does that relate to your infinite baffle? 60Hz to 350Hz i...

of MTM arrangement of two TAD 1201 in <100 Hz Horn ? I assume they would both work in the same frequency range . Also JBL LE8 is only 89 db driver and it doesn't look like it can take any power . Difference in efficiency within the channels would ...

[quote user="drdna"]The idea of 360 degree radiation of sound has great intuitive appeal to me since I feel the best recordings are done with two omnidirectional microphones. The most precise reproduction of the musical event would seem to be: ...

Since I learned today quite a bit about the Ralf’s horns I do not particularly have a lot of interest about the selection of his drivers but the stupid habit of the “derivers anonymity” is something that I do not like. I do understand when commercial...

user="jeff1225"]Romy,When you say that the Vitavox 15" was the
best midbass you heard, was it in a Vitavox corner horn? I'm think about
acquiring or building a pair of Vitavox corner horns as I have a perfect room
for them. [/quote]

[quote user="skushino"] I think you are saying the effects of my room may be dominating any problems with the Edgarhorn bass, or at least I can't know since I don't have any objective data. Is this correct?
Maybe you're right. But here is wh...

thanks I have a few questions to ask if you do not mind:
1) Did you experiment with surface of the horns and a negative contribution of smooth surface to Sound?Smooth surface are fine don't waste my time on a trival matters.

Romy,
Funny stuff... especially the the AN piece. Equally surprised octopodes ? Brilliant !
As for the Bruce Edgar post ? Not as funny. And it's off base.
The Titan II system has a straight axis upper bass horn instead of a folded upper bas...

Someone stopped me at the Alexis Park and told me: “Romy, there is a new Israeli guy in town with his amassing horn. He has a room at the St. Tropes and you should go”. I was almost offended! There was a new horn guy and I never insulted him?!!...

Last week I spent a few hours at the scene of NY’s Stereophile Show – HE 2004: a half-day on Thursday and 2 hours on Friday. As many other audio-shows it had many semi-ugly colorations, however as any audio shows this zoo trip brought it’s own “inter...

The lead came from Stefano Bertoncello's blog; the picture was taken from there as well.

Its funny you mention this because i'm experimenting with very cheap PC
speakers and these are pretty bad but its still amazing what they can
do with a good sub and some EQ.
So this cat also snifs a garbage can once in a while :)

I stopped by today in a local warehouse and picketed a 4x 16” fiber pipes and 2 two 20”. I absolutely love the effect. As soon I brought the tubes to the room and took the cover off in the hall room turned to be much quieter at HF. I did not expect t...
