Yes, I agree. If the output of the fundamentals-channel is controlled via the slopes in the crossover, the opportunity to set the output on a recording-to-recording basis is lost. If one, however, has the output of the fundamentals-channel ...

It is amassing what kind of tricks the Fundamentals Channel allows to play. Since my high-frequency Vitavox S2 driver “clicked” recently:

Here is the similar approach undertaken with Altec 288C to the one that I took with my Vitavox

Some critiques. A minor mistake in the text is that the author says that “magnetic fields generated will go down to ...

Perrew,
LCR is not active at all; it is the very same passive EQ as your RC? I think you a bit confused with terminology. The main logical explanation (there are many of them) is that capacitive filtration is very bad one and need to be minimi...

It might only appear that it is irrelevant subject. In reality this is the subject of my LONG DREAM… and I have almost realized it.
I spend entire days to redo the Air Conditioner system to accommodate it for my listening room. The house has a...

[quote user="drdna"]I have found the next obvious glaring problem, which is contributing to the muddy sound I described earlier. There is a mismatch between the two channels. The right channel is very slightly softer than the left with a ...

Recently, I would say the last 2-3 years, I detected a very foolish tendency that audio people are brewing within themselves. A typical today’s audiofool holds within itself a hope about existing of a “secret”, no discovered yet, SS high power amplif...

[quote user="Thorsten"]I wonder, which specific line level interstage transformers have you tried, it would have to be ALL of them in order for your statement "there are non" to hold.......But, what specifically do you object to in these transformers...

Thank you for your answer.If I understand well, In purpose to do something realistic and good sounding. I should use at least 2 amplifiers (one for high frequencies and the GM-100 amp for low frequencies) with a tubes active filter at the inputs of e...

[quote user="unicon"]Since you added a new parameter in audio play back called : Decor I'm afraid, it may make it far too hard. [/quote]I agree but it I do not think that it would change my mind. Perhaps “décor” is not right word however; it is not...

Rakesh, during the last year, there were some very important moments in my own realizations about the methods of low frequency reproduction. I totally abandoned my Scanspeak bass modules and now they are resting in my garage. I intentionally have my ...

This weekend I was told that there is a new power conditioner out there: Dmitri from Running Springs Audio. I never heard the company and have no idea that they are, what they do and what the stand for.
A quick search lead me to number of posi...

[quote user="Ronnie"] Listening to the horns, it seems that they indeed die somewhere below 120Hz. I was surprised, and a little disappointed that it seemed so steep. Good to hear that it's to be expected!!Yes, I'm using a 30-something-Hz 1st order h...

Sorry I'm a little late here, but anyway... here's something that may worth trying. Apologies that I can't provide a schematic at the mo - I can sort this out later if you like. In the meantime, you'll need a pen and napkin to help visualise this:The...

There is no "one tube DHT amp." There are only amps with gain in one box or two boxes.
Your 6E5P tube is not so special. People have been making WE437 spud amps since the 1960s. There is a class of amps that use a high-gm tube driver and a DHT out...

Recently Macondo was altered and converted into… nope, not into a Super Macondo :-) but in a “Larger Macondo”. The Super Macondo it will be when I resolved how to implement time delays along with a low pass flirter at midbass horn, that would enable ...

Chris, I certainly did not mean “costs nothing" in the literal sense. I meant that it costs as much as any other driver to make that Feastrex. Come on! If it is an electromagnetic driver then how much does it cost to make a few pounds of core (even i...

[quote user="Merlin"] I have … yet to hear a bass unit that can provide the low end quality whilst still allowing a first order slope. Unless we are happy to accept copious quantities of 2nd Harmonic of course. I would love to know of one.[/quote]

Jeremy, another few lead that I think might conceder.
Manly Labs has their 20-bit digital to analogue converter that uses the Pacific Microsonics processor inside. I was told that is available as the “street price” for ~$6K-$7K and it might be a “f...

Thanks for the detailed answers. I will explain my setup.You are right about the dipole bass correction instead of the injection channel. Since I am waiting for both a subwoofer and the Fane Studio 8M and their horn, I am using the 12" as a b...

Ok, I made some further experiments driving this time my S2 driver from Milq DH DSET. The hell of the sensitively - it was too much. So, I went for 4:1 inner-stage ratio. The result was very successful and the amp looks like was able to get more...

[quote user="skushino"] Edgarhorns weren't an obvious choice. Many horns never worked for me. The Avantgardes left me cold. So did the single-driver crowd (I just don't get it....), Altec VOTs, PA systems, etc. But there were some systems th...
