But how does that work with tiny amps? Is this a case where the thing is used solo, as "FR", or something, or is it part of a starts-at-89dB multi-driver speaker? I had some Rogers LS35As a long time ago, and they were fun for a while, ne...

Since my Fostex saga went deep South I was scratching my head wondering what else I would like to do considering the I would like to do as less as possible. Well, talking about to do as less as possible – I like the sound of my shitty Hamster S...

It’s a bit offtopic, but:[quote user="Paul S"] I haven't seen anything like this in over a decade, and I don't have the patience to wait until I find and acquire something like this, IF it exists. [/quote]The problem is that it does not exist… Simply...

Romy.Have been reading various threads to glean information on tweeter options. I read with enthusiasm your experiences with the RAAL teardrop tweeter until I saw the price, then had to change my plans.Your brief comments on the T90A ( affordable in ...

Having just returned from this show, I have a few comments on your comments... 1) Yes, it was the amp you posted the link to. 2) Yes, the tweeter and two MF channel drivers were GOTO 3) Your estimates on flare rates aren't too far off (don't kn...

Thanks Romy.Sounds like tweeter on top will be best approach in my situation.The room is a good size and shape - 23ft x 15ft with 9ft ceiling . Plenty of room above.As you say the 288 on Azura does go to 12-13k OK with some beaming - almost enough re...

[quote user="de charlus"]What I wish to do is to take the Cessaro Gamma for my model, substituting Vitavox and Ale drivers for the TAD ones that Cessaro employ due to the (I believe) greater musicality of the former, and using the Acapella tweeter in...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Are you sure that it was 200hz not 200km? The horn look to large to be 200Hz horn? Also, the tweeter look like has 3” typical tweeter has and the rest is just the La-horn negative opening. The caT[/quote]Iam sure that it is...

In the linked thread “Munich High End 2010..” while taking with Joe the Archeologist I was mentioning the fundamental flows of open baffles. Still, the presence of disadvantages circumstance is not a red flag for somebody actively or my interest....

Make the full-range and then you will see where you are.
Still, I feel that for MF channels it is beneficial for do with a good DHT output
stage instead of 6C33C and perhaps it is a good idea to use DHT driver as well.
So, when you strategy your 5...

[quote user="oxric"] I have spent hours coming up with all sorts of weird and wonderful, but at other times too rigid systems to support the various components comprising what I modestly choose to call Le Horn (AKA Rakeshorns). I have more or les...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]So if I understand correctly, you are still using both elements of the Red, but have separated them, and now have the HF element as shown in the above photo, and the woofer is still in the large box (still sitting up on to...

Upper range effect is amassing, though not much different then with other regenerators. With PS Audio’s Power Plant the compression at MF-HF is also reduced or eliminated and that ugly heavy dense pressure blanket got lifted. The Power Plant while do...

Had problems 2 and 3 here with my British crossovers
Both speakers have the 78 hz. Dip after a 50 hz. Peak. they are probably room resonances. Try moving the speakers and/ or the mike and remeasure.
Also you ha...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] What really surprised me was how good everything sounded with no filter on the upper-bass horns, and all drivers connected to the same (8 Ohm) tap; sure I'm getting too much mid-range from the upper-bass horn, but its...

I should have said UP or Down in the listening chair. Toward and away from the speakers will also do it, unless you're sitting midway between tweeter and mid of course, but not to the extent of up/down will.I just did an experiment with some fishing ...

[quote user="Paul S"] If you have the Mercury SR2-9013 35mm master Dorati/LSO Nutcracker, that might be a treat [/quote]
Hate that performance. Dorati did not play Tchaikovsky appropriately. Each and single Dorati’s Tchaikovsky piece sound to ...

Well, this for the tip of multi-layering the vertical panel. I like it a lot. I will allow keeping the mild panel thinner and more “airy” visually. The total high of the thing will be not 8’ for rather somewhere slightly above 6’. Also, I review the ...

waveguides as far as i can tell are designed to equalize the power response.
for example if we are talking about a typical 2-way speaker with a 7" midbass and 1" tweeter then there will be a discontinuity in the power response around the crossover...

Actually the S2 above 8Khz, or what ‘nl’ calls the “breakup range”, is something that I absolutely certainly would like do NOT loose. I very much like what S2 at it’s 10-12Hz. It might be a bit brutal in some cases; I reported it at the beginning...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I stepped away from the idea of horn tweeters. A horn is equalization devise that boost lower knee. If people need to spread a tweeter in MF then it is OK but in my case my tweeter sits at 12.5K and I do not need any gain a...

de Charlus,I don't think that you are taking the posts the way that they were meant.Your initial post started with a collection of what you consider to be the finest drivers for specific tasks. That is just fine and you may well be correct.The real j...

scooter, that was a whole point – to see if the fundamental dilemma of the those designs was addressed. Frankly I was prepared to see some kind of interpretation of unity horn, not just blunt lock of any efforts in this direction. As is, the Vittora...

Hello Dan,Love how you pass that cable through the port, I used to do that too...long time ago.Why are you crossing your 250hz horn all the way up to 1 khz?The 2445 should be able to go much lower. Have you measured the response you are getting from...

Yes, there are a lot of paths.I can see that many DIYers are very much stick on crossovers, changing capacitors, choosing slopes in digital filters - FIR or not FiR and so on.I know very experienced people who now say that with digital crossover he d...

I dont think a standart klipschorn would satisfy the cat. I had one, then I heavily modified it and in the end I built my full scale horn system. I still keep that modded khorn system as a second system.If I may suggest, if you use klipschorn, you ca...
