[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I asked many times of my desire to have the final sparkle in the mid of this PP2000 softness is some kind of audiophile itch. I do not think so and I feel that the performance of my MF channel in context of the “different” ...

Romy, Here are some images of a slight variant of your Macondo Frame proposal.
This version has the Fundamentals horn more rigidly coupled (this may or may not be desirable) and does not require a counter weight. It may also be a little more co...

Referencing the post from my “Playback Listing” forum:
http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=7412
I would like to make an interesting announcement. T is high possible that Macondo soon will have another, the 7the channel. Now it ...

Eventually, I had a chance to spend last night with up and running new Milq (no tweeters was involved at this point). As I said before, the major fight was around the MF channel and I feel I did found a good configuration where the MF channel takes a...

I assure you that my experience has very little meaning to others as I do not look for “better tube” but look for a tube that would go the best in my specific DSET application and in very custom application of Macondo MF channel. Also, a local gu...

[quote user="Murataltuev"] What Macondo
axioms are breaking with using GOTO 146 with 4" exit in say 150Hz Tractix
?Why you don't recomment to do it ? [/quote]
Of cause not but did you read and understand the Macondo
Axioms? The Macondo Axioms p...

Ok, I found my RTA cable and did some very basic measurements of what Macondo does in the room. The results were in the direction that I anticipated but worth in amplitude. My right bass channel that that sited right next to the equipment bay has no ...

Work has been so crazy busy all last year and through these strange times right now that I have not been having any time to think about the audio project let alone indulge in advancing it. One DSET/Macondo has been playing mono and I have really bee...

OK, Romy gave me an oppotunity to hear the system with the injection channel, so here's what I heard.The injection channel affects the presentation in a minor and in a very major way. Minor in context of already well accomplished Melquiades/Mac...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I do not use compression driver
for bass channel. I would like to have my system esthetically balanced, to get let
say 120Hz from a compression driver would take too long horn and it would be no
way time-aligned it. So,...

Well, I figures that while I am not sure what to do with LF section and where to locate it I will live with my woofer tower from my old listening room. They did not work well as Lower-Upper-bass channel installed next to Macondo but in odd place, han...

Not will everyone “get” it, or would agree with it but… where did you see me to care….
Q: What is the worst aspect of sound reproduction?
A: Excessive HF response of playback. A flat response above 5-6kHz is indication of dynamic and transient def...

Rakesh, I moved your post to this thread as I feel it is more relevant here, I hope you do not mind. You ask yours the very same question that I ask myself. I do not have definitive answers to them:

[quote user="vakman"]Thank you for your reply and honest feedback that there is no silver bullet.In the interest of trying to move forward, is there anyone in Sydney, Australia who has a Macondo based speakers, whom I maybe able to visit and enlighte...

It is not a secret the using a number of decoupling mechanisms between driver and baffle it is possible to change sound in resonance or amplitude department. However, if you guys insist that the tightening and loosening the screw has PHASE effects th...

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...

[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...
|
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"] So, I wonder what kind option I have. I think the most proper would be to reengage the Macondo's Axioms and to see how the bass channel might be modified in order to work alone with 63Hz mode but not against it. [/quot...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] .. what I am saying that playback certainly deliver sound but also it delivers let's call it at lubrication for sound which make consumption of Sonic messages to be more palatable for our conscious. This aspect, is this MS...

[quote user="el`Ol"]Romy,<BR>what do you think will be the crossover points of the new system?[/quote]el`Ol,
I have no idea. I have no new system yet. If I decided to render the configuration with that battery boundary-loaded horn then i...

Yes, this Model 19's have brand new foam surround and brand new refinish grills. I know what kind rebound distortions those kind of horns create without surround foam but the miserly that they crate is much more than this. I do not know what kind cr...

List nigh I was trying to move Macondo around the my new listedning room trying to figure out where the Macondo's main components would stay. Nothing is connected yet and there is no Sound yet. The initials sentiment is that the room is perfect – eve...

Last week and this weekend I been spending some considerable amount of time and efforts to do what I intended to do for long time – to finalize the Macondo’s ideas. What I mean is that with all Melquiades progress, the fundamental channel, with Injec...

[quote user="skushino"]Have you considered the opportunity of raising your upper bass HP crossover? How high do you plan to use your mid bass horns? If your mid bass is comfortable playing up to 280hz (or whatever the right freq is), you can use yo...

This is one of my favorite posts on your site.My daily playback system uses Tannoy 15" Gold drivers in large back-loaded Autograph cabinets. It isn't used for critical listening, rather it's mostly on in the background playing my local NPR radio sta...

[quote user="Jorge"]About the looks, well I listen to music with my eyes closed, so I dont really care.[/quote] Well, it is not how I see it. The topology of acoustic systems like Macondo implies the stand-alone tweeters. So, why do not make it attra...

Again, moving the speakers last night I felt that I really would like to move the speakers closer to the mid of the room – the further the speakers from the back wall the more interesting sound. There is another “again” in what I felt last night. I t...
