The AudioFederation guy posted pictures from RMAF show with Cogent room. (The images are courtesy to http://www.audiofederation.com)
I was wrong in my previous post, as Cogent did demonstrate their loudspeakers with Ionovac ion tweeter. Yester...

I would agree that the Lowther is not hard to beat but the question is where and in whose mind does this competition exist? Is the Lowther, Manger, or other full range single driver in competition with different multi-driver approaches, other single ...

[quote user="tuga"]If you have a midrange driver you can try that for yourself.[/quote]In this case the lack of "full-range" audio is so glaring it overwhelms any advantage of the point source, I think.

Hi Romy,I agree its a relief to hear finally someone describing something. Because all the mysterious dust around it makes one really curious :) And you cant hear them anywhere.So i got really "tensioned". Finally... and id like to share about it. As...

Hi Romy,
Again, good words (don't want to kiss your ass ;) ). Though, I get your point and agree, one should not think that this winter picture means Goto sound cold (u never know what one could read out of it) .
What Klaus also highlighted, is...

Anthony, it is a bit complicated subject. If you ever visit me and look at my attic you will be literally laughing. It is always initially designed with an idea to load there all possible outer installations. Pretend a good size listening r...

Part of setting up a system is listening to both channels independently, they measure the same and sound the same, but individually with a lower volume and punch, and of course no stereo effect." the audio window should get larger and larger, unti...

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...

My primary
interests (when I do purely technical listening) are in the field of psychoacoustics
and the last 2 years I spent a lot of time investigating how the brain reacts
to differently arranged sound sources. The interesting thing is that the ...

All thinking about ULF are usually centered on 3 subjects:
drivers, topology and amplification. Even though these 3 subsets very much intertwined
I still would like to talk about it separately. We do presume that we have the proper
drivers for pro...

I would like to ask for your thoughts on the importance of back chamber shape and construction. This topic became of interest when I learned that the back chamber of my midrange horn (250hz - 2khz) is noticeably resonating when I put my hand on i...

thanks for the help, romy, this is im8, it works, which is good.
This is what I think of m4. taken from website I made, when I could not post here. I will keep it up, as info for this driver is very rare, not much out there about it.Personall...

The reason that I built the 6C33C preamp was to explore the 6C33C true musical potential like I did with the 845. Not only did I compare the sound of these tubes in power amp, but also in preamp. The reason is that with power amp you might hit some l...

[quote user="Saturntube"] The difference soundwise in this half range 180hz and up horn module between the Leak TL12.1 amps and the First watt F5 clone was big, mainly the tonal balance is very different with the midrange sounding thin. Highs w...

[quote
user="martinshorn"] What Klaus also highlighted, is the importance to
him to unlimit dynamics - in order to achieve the most live-alike sound. First
of all, he noticed that Goto pleases him the most with uncompressed transient
attacks more...

Thanks for sharing these images Serge.I would like to learn more about the Audiotekne bass solution.What size driver is that, is it a sealed cabinet, what is the baffle,and what frequency range is demanded from this box?Ho...

[quote user="green heron"] I'm happy with my results midrange on up at the moment, but I'd like more slam from the midbass horns. The backchamber may be a bit too large, so I'm planning to experiment with the cabinet volume. Do you have any su...

I think my new room and new midbass horn will give me an opportunity to play at the NEW LEVEL with a notion that I have been chasing for years. I am taking about perceptual shrinking of frequency response. I need to admit that most of the ugliest...

[quote user="haralanov"] So the tweeter is always needed. The bad thing is it deforms (in 99,9999999999999999999% of the cases) the perfectly round audio window, formed by the midrange channel and "pull" some notes sometimes at its axis. These are of...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"][quote user="drdna"] You are correct, though I believe the subwoofer covers only below 35 hz. [/quote] So???[/quote]So, my thought was that below 35 hz, there are many ways of thinking about amplification. Some might say S...

Actually Goto does not have default 5-6-7 way systems. I have seen that they recommend 4 ways systems. Definably in the fields the dealer and distributor load their ignorant customers with as much drivers as possible selling them 55 ways systems.&nbs...

Thanks Romy, Paul, and Ronnie for the comments and encouragement :
Here are some responses :
1) Rubber gaskets :
Maybe it is not so important to have an “air-tight” seal (???). The rubber gaskets are there to seal the cover to the rear chamber...

I chose the EdgarHorns for fairly simple reasons. I have listened to them and I loved the way they sound. They are not the perfect loudspeaker, but they make much truer music than what I have now. Also, the price I paid is less than...

Have you tried using the Edgar350/2441-combination between the upper bass- and midrange horns, like Romy’s fundamentals channel?
I use a very similar combination (140 Hz and 600 hz tractrix with Studio 8M and JBL 2420 drivers, respecti...
