Well, how many absolutely transparent passive crossovers are there, line level or not? For me, the question is the other way round: if a passive crossover at 1 kHz can be done with good quality, I can "get away" with a single amp for the region over ...

Very interesting discussion. I have taken a close look at Marco's horns and am thinking about using them in a horn installation. I plan to use the TAD 4003 from, say, 1 to 8 kHz, and a tweeter above that. I would love to use horns below 1 kHz but wil...

Respect, Yoshi. I'll follow your further adventures with interest.I visit this site in the hope to learn, too. With regard to horns (and audio in general), I have much to learn indeed and Romy and other posters here are obviously ahead of me on the l...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I personally, dealing with horns do not use theoretical bases to observe what happen with them and I tend to use purely empirical ways. It is my believe that NO one TRULY knows what the hell it going on with horns and no on...

Or perhaps he simply likes it to sound that way? You pursue one sonic ideal, Mr Sakuma obviously pursues a different one. The sound level - does Sakuma play louder or softer than you? My guess would be softer....

... may be a good thing, perhaps? I'm currently thinking about just how good I want my system to be. Even my present speakers - Altec A7 - tell me quite a bit about the atrocities mny recording and mastering engineers like to inflict on the performan...

[quote user="Merlin"]I certainly think you must use an active device for the bass/mid transition in any serious design at this level. Choice of amplifiers will be personal. I don't have the worry of output transormers.

Hi Romy,I usually manage to read you quite well, but this [quote user="Romy the Cat"] direct or indirect phase constructors.[/quote]has me baffled. What do you mean, please?...

Robert,your view somewhat mirrors that of Linn when they introduced their Isobarik speakers. In the almost 30 years since then, the theoretical understanding of isobaric loading has improved. What it does is to double the moving mass and the motor fo...

The balloon must be flexible to work as you intend. That means that the radiating driver will effectively "see" the volume in the balloon, too. So why the balloon? Also, won't the sound of the internal driver reach the outside world through the membr...

Sorry if this is OT - I could start a new thread but my post is inspired by the quote below - [quote user="drdna"]the lathe-work is rough on some of the horns. [/quote]I can't decide whether that's good or bad. I'm slowly working up to getting ...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]I had dinner with Mike Harvey from Octave this weekend. Mike acquired the intellectual rights, tooling, drawings and jigs needed to manufacture the S2's. I believe that newly manufactured S2's will be available very soon. M...
