As the recordings themselves are missing so much information, creating a plausible image (certainly not the original) is the actual “art” involved.I must admit that I do not generally have issues with singers mouths stretching between the speakers or...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It is in a way ridicules. For years people who build of use horn fight with honk in horn, particularly in midbass-upperbass-lowerMF horns. I built my midbass horns and it has no honk, I mean no honk ever of any kind. S...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Rakesh,Two things I see that may or may not turn out to be an issue:1) The relatively narrow stance of the front wheels; depending on how heavily you load the top of the frame, stability could be a bit on the limit when mo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]BTW, I have a local Bostonian guy have replied brought today a very interesting DHT amp. He has a number of DHTs and this one he reports is the special one, quite expensive as well. Although the electricity was not good tod...

I very slowly started to convert another amp to DHT. For now I listen just left channel and in a striped down mode: no tweeter and no Injection, letting the MF to care the whole upper range. It is interesting to play different tubes in this mode. Fra...

OK, I disconnected my MiniMe speakers and left only Macondo to care sound in the room. I was listing for the last week Macondo. There is no bass, just upperbass horn at the bottom and The Injection channel a full range. It is OK sound but truly nothi...

Since I have struggled with my own +/- insurmountable problems with Lowthers, OB, BR, etc., ad nauseum, I can certainly relate generically to what you have just said about horn drivers in this injection thread.Yet this may be the only time I have hea...
|
Your latest post got me thinking in a sort of incomplete way about how you might locate the injection channel... If you consider tone as a harmonic of the original source, then (depending on the order of harmonic) it may in fact not be co...

[quote user="drdna"]I would not restrict myself to the idea that things need to be a certain way or a certain configuration of the drivers or ports based on theory alone. I think it is important to ask what is interesting about the sound that the new...

If you following the thread about my new listing room:

I would like to overview the content of my thoughts on the subject. I feel that the first phase of my interest in single-stage Milq vs. DHT is over and I can make some observations.
The subject turned out to be more interesting and more changi...
|
I kind of was thinking…
If a good DHT is able to give a magnitude of Absolute Tone that IDHT is
not able then it might be good… But. I do not use Single-stage
Melquiades amp itself but it supplemented with my Injection Channel.
The Inject...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of time I am afraid. Let pretend that tomorrow I will build/buy some kind of speaker that would do the perfect ULF channel ...
|
I need to say that I miss my Macondo sound, not the sound
itself but an ability to push a button and have predictably good sound. However,
from the place where I'm staying now, I feel that to have just Macondo result
is not enough for me. I would ...

In continuation to the "A new round of Pacific’s DAC listening" post.... I have a number of revisions of this little contest between two DACs in this thread and in other threads. In all of them the Lavry 924 has a little edge over Pacific Microso...

It is difficult to generalize but I will. As much as ribbons with each hertz down sound more and more unpleasant the low power SET amps with each hertz down in bass region more and more and more loosing ground. Ok, I am not taking about the real bass...

I have order 4cu feet sealed enclosure for two 15 drivers. It
is relatively small box but I need to hit minus 6-8 dB at 50Hz. The collection
of the drivers I have would be following: Vitavox AK51 and 15/40, Altec 416B
and 515B. I like Vitavox tone...

I had today a long listening session. I listened a whole Mahler Second and I can tell you that I was the best upperbass I ever heard from a playback. I am not kidding. The upperbass literally despaired in the new room but what it is being called up...

I was promising to tell stories of my audio miracles with no
order of chronology or importance, so here is another one. I think it was in
2002-2003. I was transitioning from Lamm amplifications to Melquiades and was contemplating
to introduce a DH...

Thanks for this one Romy, very interesting...it sorta ties together several things that I have been thinking about lately. I guess I am lucky that the Bass Cannons can be run off 9w from the DSET bottom channel and from memory I get about 115dB at 1...

Romy,
I'm very pleased to learn that you've got your Injection Channel done.
I assume the above illustration is not indicative of the way you have the Tannoy Red aligned with regard to the other drivers, as it appears to be sitting out in front...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Here's what's behind my comment regarding the irrelevance of color: I strongly suspect that the new production diaphragms will come with transparent Mylar suspension. In that case, I would hope they turn out to have the me...

[quote user="Paul S"]it seems like a miracle that two people familiar with the score could recognize "it" and agree on it, via any sort of playback whatsoever ... we tend to focus (more or less) on the parts we recognize as Music. [/quote][quote user...
