In terms of the length of the horn, I'm allowing myself a total height of 7'6" (just below the average ceiling height of 8'). In regards to the mouth diameter, that's another matter. (It appears that I will have to build two [2] different...

Anyhow, it is interesting how the new 25 users that get those Studio 8M will use them. I wish something “new” would derive from all of it…[/quote]Speaking only for myself, I am planning to use the Fane 8M in a pair of 11...

[quote user="scooter"]1. Please take a look around this site for some intelligence on how detrimental digital room correction is and why. Romy and Paul are being excessively polite today regarding DSP, perhaps because the weather is nice. I'll be mor...

I would like to pass some summarizing observations and some generalizations regarding the entire “Water Drop” project.
THE IDEA
The idea of trying to find a tweeter to compliment Macondo was a good idea. Many of you know that I was proudly declari...

In this thread I would like to talk a bit about the practice in DSET driven multi-way horns configuration.
I have expressed my view that the architectural configuration that Macondo and Super Melquiades end up to be I find is the most interest...

[quote user="hagtech"]First, it seems like the tubes are starved. They are running very low current. The 12AX7 is also at low voltage. I'm guessing they are running at about 0.3mA at 65V plate. This operating point is way down...

Spent great time and with happy with result. Not the results
are so spectacularly good but the playback is back to be operational that I was
missing for a while.
Starting with films. The damn OPPO has not enough output for
my Milq. I decided to...

This weekend I was walking in my new listening room and did
some thinking how to organize everything. Unquestionably my first step would be
convers Milq LF section (bass line-array) from Midas accommodation to drive my woofer
tower, in a way how I...

Welll, you still did not express yourself what are the sonic verdure of DHT from your point of view. You are not obligated I juts proposed you to do it if you feel that have any observations on the subject.

[quote user="Paul S"] So I'm wondering how things are going for the bold explorers who forked over their expectations for a whack at the PP2000. Have the things turned out to be Plug and Play along with All That, or is this yet another case whe...

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...

[quote user="ayebee"]I’m probably suggesting the obvious, but have you tried adjusting the crossover component values on the fundamentals and MF-channels? On the fundamentals-channel, increasing the inductor-value, and decreasing the cap, so that...

A few year back a Russian audiologist A. Likhnitsky’s published a book “Sound Quality: New approach to testing of the home audio equipment”. (P&K, 1998) The book has many positive moments and altogether it was a wonderful attempt to bring i...

Collin,I am pleased that you found my suggestions worthwhile.
I approached the issue of your music room with two questions in mind:1- How to avoid the structural angle from interfering with the sound2- Would an enlarged room be worthwhile...

This week I will be trying to address why the Milq midbass is clipping. This is very interesting one. Currently the Melquiades LF channel uses an output transformer 700R to 5R or 11.83 to 1. I thought before that I have much lower ratio, like 5:1 bu...

I have just taken out of my system a First Watt F5 clone Tim Rawson amp, It was substituted by a Telefunken PP amp with 6AQ5 tubes. Let me to explain.
My system consists of 6 way horn loaded speakers. I have a round Tactrix...

I keep thinking about the strangeness of my phase inversion.
I still do not think that it should be this way. My leading explanation is because
I did not implement the crossover precise. If the crossover called for let way

Romy, I do agree with all your comments. It is true that the magnitude of the rubber taste very much depends on the crossover frequency. I used them below 64Hz, but with first order filter, implemented before the amp that drives them. With that kind ...

[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...

It is nothing to do with Wisdom. It is my principle of application of “cost” as a common sense design tool. I do not bitch that Duelund caps are expensive. I just try to find a rational solution for using them that would embrace their price. My ...

I was wondering what the noise of stereo signal come into FM and are any ways to reduce it? Naturally we get out stations in mono mode with practically no noise at all. The best tuners more then 85dB signals to noise ratio – that are very high number...

I am not a big fun of Dvorak 9th under Ancerl. I’m not big fun nether the orchestra’s balance nor the recording quality. Anyhow…

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...
