Hi Roman, hi all...... very interesting topic... I recently made the contact between Josh and Klaus and his Goto system... I experienced Klaus' system three times and also if someway blaming his choices about using only and exclusively "liquid music"...

[quote user="CO"] May i ask if you have ever played with the Le Cleach flares and how you find them?They were created to reduce reflections directly back into the horn. Only problem is they are very large because of this.... [/quote]
Nope. I never h...

I care less about Bret and his business, in fact I have no idea who is he. Since he use audio as business then what distinct him from any other audio whore. A purpose of any business is supply demands and capitalize on the frustrations, investin...

Well, it is certainly not our objectives to define were one or another driver, in this case TADs, would punch up in regards to other drivers. I presume that any driver if a sufficient amount of time, effort and love invested might blossom with differ...
|
Thanks, Be, for a correction but the fun part is no one acknowledged your blander. The Goto drivers I think are exotic terra incognito for most people and I think it is how Goto Company is willing to keep it. No one talk about nuts and bolt of Goto c...

[quote user="coops"]Cessaro in fact make a spherical brass horn for the 703, drop Ralph a line ( at cessaro ) I am sure he will be answer any queries.[/quote]
Keith, if they do it then it is good for Cessaro and indicates that they are not damn. How...

time alignment?
why on earth have you got those horns aligned like that?
I have a pair of the same marinelli horns.. 15" wide. stunningly pretty, solid birdseye with tad-2001's.. i'm not impressed at all.
can't wait to put a tractrix or lecl...

Cat...your ability to look at a picture and diagnoseminutae of sound and even the character of the system owner is impressive.As you know from previous discussions, I am a fan of direct experience as a discovery procedure over intellectual manipu...

Let me tell you a bit about how an why we designed the midbass horns the way we did.A few years ago we discovered the tractrix horn for MF use. It was really the most important improvement so far. No more honking exponential horn sound.The improvemen...

[quote user="cv"]Ok, I managed to get my measurement setup running. Behringer ECM8000/PC soundcard kind of thing.I measured the following tweeters:Focal TLRTAD PT-R9Aurum Cantus G1Fane 5022I don't have an absolute level calibrator and I need to take ...

[quote user="xandcg"] I head/read somewhere Cessaro use modified G.I.P. drivers when the client want
field coils.

That might be very interesting as the greatest liability of largest
Cessaro is the cheesy TAD drivers. The fact they clai...
|
I have no idea who he is but I thought that this might be interesting in context of this thread. It is a Hong Kong guy who replaces his looks like Avalon Eidolon with some kind of 3-way Cessaro. It looks as he uses 833 amp. I do not know a lot about ...

Oliver,
It might be anything including electricity. Generally compression drivers are very much vulnerable to the electricity problems, muck more than convectional drivers. Let pretend that distortions in powers lines are responsible for worsening o...
|
Yes, Paul, I know this company. It is always slightly annoyed me that it is Chinese company as Chinese manufactures very rarely, if ever, do any audio products with extreme or demanding performing characteristics. They rather do inexpensive mass-mark...

I recently made some highly attractive changes with the way in which I use S2. Now, since the S2’ top got cleaned up the universal misery of universe bothers me tremendously. :-)
Really, the S2 runs in my 400Hz horn up to 12.5kHz and the S2’s 12.5kH...

[quote user="Kcct82"]
Hey Romy,
Goto makes 12" and 15" woofers at 100db. I recently found out they make a small two way system using an 8" woofer. The 8 incher's range is 55hz-8000hz so I'm thinking it might be a good candidate for use with 60Hz h...

So, two almost two years later and this contraption is still in my room and "ain´t goin nowhere" :-)Guys, I became obsessed with horn speakers and specially with Onkyo product so I would like to share with you my latest experiences.The speakers I tal...
|
Hi everyone Guess what! Just had a visit to this system last night. Upfront, the owner - thank you Klaus again - is a very welcoming and friendly fellow. But also remarkably reasonable and decent. Total absence of any need to show off. You rather nee...

jd, I cannot see any of PDF files, probably my current networks kills them.
I do not know the AK150 drivers. I know AK157, AK151 and K15/40. If they have significantly lower free-air resonance, at 30-35Hz then I am not sure that they would be ...
|
It is complicated. Any tweeter is different and the RAAL’s “Water Drop” tweeter is more different then others. Almond any other tweeters that I heard this tweeter has something absolutely unique- it has no annoying upper MF nose. When I asked Alex to...
|
The recent events in my playback made me to think about he new prospective duty of tweeters. Since the Super Melquiades was enlisted for duty the Vitavox S2 got it’s own dedicated amplifier channel and stopped to “see” the coil of upper bass driver. ...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]Well romy will probably disagree or maybe find it off topic but I am sorry there is huge margins built in somewhere if someone is trying to sell me wood cabinets with TAD drivers for 140k $. One of you guys can ...
|
Ulf, are you still around?
I would be interested in an update on this project.. are you listening to this setup a year later?
I have a pair of these same drivers (TAD tm-1201) sitting new in boxes and trying to determine what horn profile, tractr...

The only reason I don't have a giant WE system is that I can't afford it and I don't have room. I sold all of my WE and Lansing field coil gear to my Silbatone friend back in 1989, because I know he would never sell it, he was putting together a ser...
|
[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Its still not perfect, and I had the mic 1m from the membrane of the driver (had not yet read Romy's last post where he recommends putting the mic back at listening point). [/quote]
I would like to stress it again that t...
|
I am glad that he did not stop on TADs and look elsewhere.
It is hard however as the demands for better drivers is very low that makes
them to be literally 100 times more expensive then they need to be (field coil
are very cheap to make) and that ...

I was keep listening my Dutch-made SA8535 tweeter. There is a lot of deferent with this tweeter and I think it is a good time to pass my early observations about the tweeter Sound.
This driver is not a ribbon tweeter as the Stage Acompany frau...

hi romy
idea of a 4way speaker system. not time aligned, but in compensation mid-bass horn and mid-high would create a one point source.
30hz - ~ 120hzBass cabinet similar to bassmaxx

de Charlus, this “are not afraid of cabinet resonance per se” is complicated subject. I have raised the topic in the “How to USE “Resonating Oops” in loudspeakers” thread:
