[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]The Velodyne SMS 1 will allow you to do just about anything, up to 200Hz. [/quote]I was the Velodyne crossover into the game yesterday. To my surprise it not as convenient as I thought. The high pass filter is not defeatab...

Jessie, your post catches me thinking about multi-channel driver matching, as well. I am not familiar with the Fanes, but I wonder if simply throwing more power at them would make them nothing more than louder, so they would then "match" the res...

Interesting the stressing the importance of the listening room Rakesh went into depth of discussing reference clocks and YL drivers that are very irrelevant to the subject of the rooms. The Rony’s comment about the expression of “ultimate way of life...

[quote user="Jorge"] …Most of us are using some sort of cabinet for the LF range. Romy was using the Scanspeak up to 75 hz crossed to his UBH, Haralanov is using those wonderful 23" woofers on an infinite bafle, and Jessie is using the McCauley 18"...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]What would be really interesting would be to compare the hard drive to the CDP, while feeding the signal of both into the USB DAC. Obviously, getting a USB signal out of the CDP would be the challenge.[/quote]I agree that ...

Got my Krips’ Schubert 9 today from UK and was playing it today, thanks, Jessie, from the recommendation. The performance indeed a very-very-very good, I mean super good but it goes not has Sound that I was looking for. What Krips and London Symphon...

Vibrating floors are a two-way street, eating certain enery and pumping back/increasing other energy, if only as the "in the shadow" effect. I would not bother to try to math/model it when emperical testing will tell me anything I want to know a...

[quote user="decoud"]I know you do not want to do it, but it is a shame not to do it: actually manufacture a version of the Macondo with an integrated dset, cut down enough (say three channels) to make it feasible while still demonstrating the advant...

Jessie, I think you go overly crazzy in here. The buzzing you got is from your inaccuracy of your “small clips”. A Regular divider at input should not have ant noise, regardless the resistors were used. Do not spend a lot and do not go into the craz...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I have not yet measured either case. As previously mentioned, at mid-project I had to put the mid-bass horns on standby (I will get back to them, but must first attend to an ongoing emergency).I can measure the free air re...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Yes, in a way you are correct; the wire is white but over time became sort of brown toward the socket; this is either from the metal contacts of the socket having oxidized in close proximity to the insulation, or simply fr...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] First question:

Jessie, I love the way you have got it so you can EASILY move anything in any direction. I imagine this will be a key in maintaining your sanity as you and your system evolve together. And I agree with the form-follows function aesth...

Jessie, actually I do not think you have seen me complaining about his chose of material (the only problem is the he need to fonish it other the metal). I know little about metals but I am sure that that the thing has a mass, in regard to 500Hz,...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I do not interpret Pham's page to show that he is running more than just one horn system; what I see is an evolution of a system. It looks like, in its latest iteration (under the heading "System Update 9/29/10"), Pham has...

Bill, the result you or anybody else gets with resonating surface of the horn if NOT what I was talking about. You and Jessie recognized in what I was saying some specific problems of your horn but those problem are from very different reason. The t...

What I find a very interesting in the design direction of Sadurni Acoustics went is a fist attempt to integrate horn and frame in the same sculpture. I like this idea from very beginning when I “invented” it but I never see anybody went for it. I do ...

Jessie,
I can not speak Swedish and have no idea what they say but here is a Swedish 50Hz horn project. I admit that I have difficulties to like people who design horns in Hornresp but… for whatever it worth…

Hm, it is interesting… a few weeks ago I was trying to saddest Jessie that if he end up with 5-chanalls installation then it might not be necessary for to have exactly 5 channels of Melquiades. However, since I moved myself into 5 channels I be...

I finally added a -15 dB voltage divider to my ML2s last week to fix the noise problem from my L1 preamp - Why did I wait so long?!!The result is absolute dead silence. Nothing. Nada. It is almost impossible to tell if the system is powered on, ev...
