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="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...

[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="drdna"]While I think a resonating speaker can add its own musicality to a reproduction, it is clearly adding harmonic distortion, etc. It may be pleasant, but you run the risk of needing differently tuned speakers for each type of ...

OK, this morning I tuned the playback and did some listing, trying to understand what was the problem. Sound was not just bad but it was very strange, it was almost as a mechanical replica of sound. I took my phase meter trying to set horns in ph...

I keep thinking about my new idea of more than 2 channels
and room acoustic reinforcement but in natural and organic way, without using DSP.
I have invited my friend who did it from
last week to collaborate the idea and to bound some of my concep...

Well, a few things that I need to note. If you or anybody else are trying to make an impression about own installation and use video then please make a relevant video. The video you made is irrelevant as it shows absolutely nothing. What is the purpo...

Thanks, JJ.
I do not necessary feel that it should be any difference between the early Hal-O production and the new version – they are essentially are the same products with different descriptions. For new dampers should be better only for lar...

A few days back I got a hold of an article in some kind of French publication and a site reader helped me to translate it. In the article Klaus and Reinhard reported that Arthur Benade’s helped them better understand the propagation of sound in h...

very interesting idea proposed by a friend of mine with whom I just discussed the
notion. He asked if my find with center channel will work out then why wouldn’t

2011 will be a busy audio year for me. I will have a nice large space 28 feet x 20 feet x 11 feet which I am free to modify for audio. The walls are 150 years old irregular stone the floor is cement and the ceiling is composed of structural...

[quote user="morricab"]…. putting the attenuator AFTER the gain stage has negative consequences for the sound….[/quote]
Well, yes and no. In the new 6 channels version of Super Milq I will be use 2 stepped attenuators: for Injection Channel and for ...

I did finish today the 2-driver extension for bass towers. I did not mount them to the default location – waiting for a “friend” to come to help me to do it. As I finish it will be exactly the same configuration that I had 7 years back in Boston.

The last night I “locked” Thomas to watch Masha and Bear in
my office and spent some time with playback trying to answers a few questions in
my head.
First, I needed to discover what was the source of the ridicules
double-sound that I exp...

Very nice, Keith, thanks. The most interesting would be to access the “Absolute Tone” capacity of the Gamma. Frankly I feel that with TADs it should not be very too advanced as they are at BMS/TOA domain, only with a little TAD syntactic twist. Even ...

Further to my earlier message, I've measured the bias
voltages for the driver tubes in all Channels.

Hi Romy,
I am planning my own DSET build. I have based my speakers on your Macondo and
am busy turning MDF horns in my spare time.
Once that is over I will move onto amplifiers. I plan to build a fullrange Melquiades for a
friend and the...

Gordon Rankin of Wavelength Audio did a series of one-stage DHTs with a step-up transformer input about ten years ago. I think they were called the Mercury series. By all accounts, they sounded good, but of course had limited gain, not much power and...
