Having just returned from this show, I have a few comments on your comments...
1) Yes, it was the amp you posted the link to.
2) Yes, the tweeter and two MF channel drivers were GOTO
3) Your estimates on flare rates aren't too far off (don't know if Jeffery want's them posted, but he was quite free with that, and all kinds of information at the show).
4) The main thing I wanted to comment on though was "person complained about dried, over-damped sound with a heavy shortage of the necessary amount twinkleness and sparks."
I was in and out of that room quite a few times, both days, and sometimes CDs were played, sometimes vinyl, sometimes really good tapes. Sometimes the turntable was well adjusted, sometimes, well... not..
When it was right, it was hard to fault.
Everything was integrated, and "locked in" and the front row of chairs was only ~8' from the Midbass horns.
Everything from symphonys to solos--
Easily the best I've ever heard; i'm glad he brought it across the country to a show.
Now I'm trying to decide what do do the same, and what to do different.
I've wondered about that frame/front tripod.
Would it diffract soundwaves from the high MF horn and tweeter? Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
