Looks like I'm back into this again, since, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, Yoshi up and sent me his "neutered" Reps 1 drivers (he surgically removed the whizzers).I started turning my existing Basszilla components and these guys together ...

[quote user="Vasyachkin"]has anybody tried a horn speaker with a dipole bass section ?[/quote]Well, I must say that I have tried dipole bass in a few configurations, including dipole bass plus horn, however I think this is completely immaterial to th...

As I already have written before, I was looking at different bass solutions for frequencies below 110hz with my set-up. As of this weekend I have set-up a new solution and will be evaluating and fine tuning it for the coming days. The new bass sectio...

I wonder if you could hang a secondary driver in a dead box, without baffle, or perhaps more usefully, with a shaped baffle and use it to provide the "resonance" effect of many vibrating panals of tuned length and specificshaped radiating areas...

I still have no solid idea how to naturally tame the wild upper-mid/lower-treble I have heard. I went ahead and soldered in the guestimated notch filter yesterday, very sharp, 6 dB, and by this morning the (removable) silicone stick-um was dry, so I...

[quote user="Paul S"]Scott, is it your specific aim to configure an enclosure to "effectively" lower driver Fs? While this, along with an exponential increase in power, is a proven strategy for generating ULF, it seems like this approach creates more...

I see, this tri-way Quad system for sure shall be much different from regular Quas. I kind of even understand why you stay with open baffle bas to support the system’s bass. For sure it will not Bruckner-style pressurize a room as non-dipole bass wou...

Hi, Marcus
As I understand it is 15” loaded into 110-150Hz horn, MF compression driver in 350-400Hz horn, Ribbon tweeter and a pair of tapped horns? Looks good.
If it were up to me than I would paint the entire baffle with tweeter and MF i...

[quote user="cv"]Romy, Can you expand a little more on what the issue with dipole bass is and what it does incorrectly? I'm still not sure I know exactly what you mean (and I've had a look at some of your other comments on the site).[/quote]Chris,

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do use some vintage elements in my playback but I use them purposefully. I recognize their strengths and weaknesses and I capitalize on the strengths only. I think this is the only sane approach I see; when some vint...

[quote user="cv"]A couple of things to correct
here - the horn flare is not conical even though the exterior surface gives
that impression. [/quote]
I think you are incorrect. Even if the horns do have some internal
belly then they still look m...

Well, I did not crawl to the specific attic area where it might
be done. Hell, I did not close the house yet - it will be in distant May. I am
just strategizing…
Hypothetically the problem with infinite baffle would be
that drivers exposed...
|

I remember this guy from time spent at AA. He has probably tested about a hundred drivers by now, maybe more. It sounds like he has no expectations of using these "full range", rather wide range. Unlike the Lowthers that I still use OB, the Rullit ...

Hi Romy,1) What dimensions for 1808 baffle would you suggest? 2) Is floor-firing vs. front-facing cone useful or preferred?I believe you wrote LF channels should be placed in arc outside midbass channels. 3) Any *general tips...

Don't know the Vitavox, but some of the old 15" drivers sound good up to 4-500 Hz. For my own current project I will be crossing a modern 10" driver at about 200 Hz, for reasons of efficiency, and not planning to use the walls for baffle extensions. ...

Don't know construction details, of course, but I'm sitting way out on the West Coast thinking, "I'd swap the baffle". Easy for me to say, I realize...Paul S...

Thank you for comments.I agree with front-baffle concerns.I'll redesign it.But I'm still thinking to keep Tapped Horn integrated somehow to the whole setup and may be use RoomCorrection, but only for Tapped Horn (20-50Hz).Another problem with Tapped ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I never feel comfortable with corner-loading despite that the best midbass I even heard was coming from corner-loaded horns.[/quote]The lower midrange is the region that should make the most problems in a backloaded corner ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Anyhow, I did the measurements today and what I saw shocked me. Of the ULF sections has nice 20Hz at MF level then they have +12dB at 60Hz level. That explains everything but it also absolutely clearly indicates that the se...

Sure, if you don't hear too many problems over time, or if you are easily able to deal with any problems with the drivers remaining in the original cabinets, then you have what you wanted. Same for "time alignment" by measuring voice coil distance to...

[quote user="KLegind"]I had a look at the pic of your speaker just now - may I ask about the reasoning that went in to choosing a diffraction type horn?Also, your midrange looks like an open baffle type. What kind of back wave/diffraction management ...

i found the Fujitsu ten team (Eclipse co) brand new.they have paid the desired attention to subject.http://www.coherent-audio.de/download/e_TD712z_Catalog.pdfthey dont refer their technics in baffle assembly is correcting time domain(phase)but surely...

I think the usage of Romys Injection Channel has misguided you to think it was implemented because of a certian lack of tone or some sterile sound, nothing of the sort, I cannot blame you for not having listened to Romys system, but theo...

I made the move toward to what I think might be done with Injection Channel for my Macondo. In the picture below is a new home for the 10-incher Red. The box is done interestingly. The front baffle is 1” MDF all the rest is 3/4n if a regular cheap pl...

Jarek, where will you start? Even "using your ears" requires some sort of baseline, if to avoid the insanity of "random experiments". Enclosure volume and baffle size are variables in terms of sound, along with crossovers, and anything else you might...

Interesting video. It is a compelling argument for open back, infinite baffle or transmission lines designed to completely absorb the back wave. Everything else simply works much differently than we want to believe......
|
|
Thanks, Wojtekm it sounds like interesting experience. I would mention that you use K-horns and with them the loading would be much more capriccios then it would it be with stand-alone infinite-baffle bass section. Did you seal the space between the ...

These speakers were not open baffle. I would agree with Mani's description of their sound, except for the 'edge' bit. That depended on where you were sitting/standing....

[quote user="el`Ol"]Maybe one should't give up the attic-IB idea, the subs could fire downwards.http://www.aespeakers.com/drivers.php?driver_id=8[/quote] Great idea, thanks for reminding. That still might be an option. I need to educate myself about...
