I do not do anything with my Opera Room, and I am not sure if I will. Still, from time to time I pick from the tree of possibilities some very kinky fruits. My love to Mussurgsky is know and last weekend I visited my local audio guy who has a very go...

I lost all hope for horn loaded Lowther speakers . Got Phile Mikey (fremmer) recommended TT and new old MC cartrige (benz Mc3) so analong front sounds comparable to old modded MCintosh CD player I have. I finished (took al ong time ) Hagerman c...

Romy,I don't see a wine rack in the view of the speakers. I believe that the wine needs music to age properly, just as we do. A dark cellar is said to have advantages but the fish down there are albinos. Perhaps some research into how the music of Sc...

OK, would you say the weak link would then be:1) Just the topology of Lamhorn (single driver with back-loaded horn appendix)2) Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general3) Or any single driver loudspeaker in generalOr perhaps a better quest...

Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an extended listening session with the Living Voice Vox Olympian outside of a show environment. Since said listening session took place upon a boat – moreover, a wooden-bodied boat – under what can only be sai...

you continue in your name calling to make yourself feel better?...I mean this is what kids did in 6th grade..LOLI will no longer participate as you all have been brainwashed in thinking and reading(internet) all this garbage on why horn systems are s...

I have to admit I have no idea and did not experiment with matching horn loaded tweeter to big ,direct radiating "extended range' MF channel. I'm not sure it's doable. I was speculating on the reasons why the owner of Moscow instalation switched from...

Since I last posted there has been some progress to my indoor and my outdoor systems. Indoors I have added a pair of tapped subs. I must say that I am quite happy with these. Of course they are not as good as full size front loaded horns but still a ...

I am currently planning high-WAF speakers for my sister which have to stand in the corners on the floor. Asking for small corner horns I was told the EV Baronet could be a solution. Simulating it with roughly estimated dimensions I found that the FR ...

[quote user="js"]Thanks for the reply. I'm using a Jabo KH-55 horn for hf/upper mid, so I think I'll have to experiment with different size chambers. Beyma quote the volume displaced by the driver as 5.5 litres, so I'll start by trying a 9 litre (g...

The idea of trapped horn looks like get very popular among audio people. I have no position on the subject and I do not know if trapped horn is able to facilitate proper sound and if it drastically different from the sound of operated enclosures. I n...

I mean, even if I was extremely rich, there's sort of a "point" of return or guilt or something, like worrying perhaps TOO much on other aspects to compliment them. I wouldn't buy Cessaros even if I was rich...for some reasons. I'm not...

i will upload a pic.i have no problem with an additional channel!1.)i dont have to build it right now, the 60hz-horn with the s2 mf and 2405 hf will sound quite nice(at least i hope so;-) and i have something to build on.2.)i prefer to do things by m...

I have read Romys post about the fine hairs and such but do not necessarily agree with the interpretation here. Romy always has a specific UseCase and makes very clear what he is after. He has often mentioned his search for interesting sound and even...

[quote user="vuki"]Hi,Mr. Hiraga said (and it's also in the promo-flyer) that he uses modified GreatPlainsAudio coaxial, although the one in the speakers that were playing music looked more like original Altec 604 (because of the multicell horn). So,...

"Best bass" is of course a matter of opinion based on experience and expectations. The (original) Hartsfield LF driver is certainly "designed for horn loading", like the Vitavox AK-151, whereas the AK-150 and the JBL D-130 are designed to be direct r...

[quote user="rdrysdale"]So how do you suppose the proper DPoLS can be located? With a system like Steve Schell and I are working with, everything weighs hundreds of pounds and to properly evaluate changes would take days, maybe even weeks f...

I have seen that people online react surprisingly to my post above. Hey are accustom that I am hyper-demanding and tough for production of DIY speaker attempts but above I suddenly proposed to relatively mediocre speaker to become the become th...

[quote user="moreart"]Hello,i made a few bass horns for home use:look on my HP [/quote]Moreart, Behave. What your “bass horns for home use” have to do with pro folded bass horns? Also, no offence, your horns for home use are a bit ridicules and VERY...

symbiotic diaphragms were never used in the 19's. this may be part of the "bad sound" that this guy was experiencing.they used the 802-8g driver with ultra light epoxy and aluminum diaphragm that allowed hf response up to 22,000 cycles when pairedwi...

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...

well fine, my X350.5 does 50 watt class A, and of course in push-pull. I use it with 120 watt max rated 3 way speakers of about 87 dB efficiency. You can see on the 350.5's centre instrument dial if you go out of class A. If I go out, I usually fear...

The thing about horns is, "developing" them consumes a lot in terms of time and materials, and they are expensive to materialize. SPL modeling programs can be great for getting in the ballpark, but YMMV when it comes to "level of demands" from a hi-f...

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...

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 -...

[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...

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...
