[quote user="enjoy_the_music"] Well I am fairly new to active speakers. I've been in contact with Merlin and Guy in the UK about these type of speakers and their experiences. I'm just taking it all in and then going forward making a few mistakes and ...

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 ...

Since the “no tilting rule” is one of the Macondo’s Axioms: (#2 - “All channels shell have strictly parallel axis”) then I would like to defend it.

I tried the driver and generally I do like it’s sound a lot. It more sophisticated then Linaeum, it is more noble tonally and alike the Linaeum is seamlessly melts with Vitavox S2. In fact I am developing recently a theorem according to which a compr...

It was yesterday around 4 PM – I viciously took it off and decided never use it again. I was listening Brahms German Requiem with James Levine and BSO – a phenomenal performances in my view and one moment after being offended by each note the F...

[quote user="Bud"]First thing I would try is a single dot of Elmer's White Glue applied in the exact center of the dome, on the outside. The dot would be the size of a round wooden toothpick, cut off at the beginning of the taper. Dipped in the glue,...

I put a couple days ago a silk dome tweeter in the game. I look in my storages to see what I had there among the traditional silk domes. I ended up pulling out my North Creek Music D25 driver.

[quote user="oxric"] I have spent hours coming up with all sorts of weird and wonderful, but at other times too rigid systems to support the various components comprising what I modestly choose to call Le Horn (AKA Rakeshorns). I have more or les...

Chris, I did ask myself the same question: perhaps my given PTR9 is demagnetized. I called the last night to the owner of the tweeters and he said that he uses them for 7 years and they driver should be fine. He also expressed a lot of doubts if the ...

Kids, do not let kids to subscribe the popular audio-freakish myths of the records spinning people about “the extraordinary beauty” of the Denon cartridges. Yes, the myth has some reasons: many more expensive cartridges are bad, very bad for th...

Romy, I have been trying to explain to myself what happened and how I got to it and trying to recreate this wonderful boiling point.
I tried to make a write up of all the steps needed in order to make it happen, but it is ever so elusive. I ...

I've been thinking about this matter for a while but could not find a better excuse to formulate my theory then in this topic. My simple theory is that if we reduce our concept of "music" the more fundamental concept of "sound" as point of reference ...

A friend of mine asked my last night if I feel that PurePower’s Sound as good as a playback during those extremely seldom moments when electrify is good. It was a good question and I feel that it is worth to cover.
First off all I can not say about ...

The demonstration of the WE equipment was impressive as was looking closely at how these horns were constructed. The arrangement (originally it would have been mono) was to provide the audience seated both in the stalls or circle with an evenly bala...

Romy,Point taken on the Ozone issue...do the catalytic converters in the units work effectively? I do not know. There are relatively inexpensive measuring devices for it.I agree completely that they sound different. You can see in my language that I ...

To my ears silver has a potential advantage over copper that unfortunately seems difficult to achieve. I've read that the advantage may come from the lower DC conductivity, and the problems from higher inductivity and skin effect, and lower internal ...

Bruce Edgar room was probably the only rooms at the entire show where form my prospective it was possible to begin to talk about "pure audio", so I will.
Bruce picked and smartly holds at "The Show" a wondefull room, the small room, but fr...

It is mean rainy day today in Boston and I’ve been playing with my new PurePower 3000 regenerator. It has been a bit bumpy as there was a frustrating issue, that looks like a shipping damage, the PurePower guys promise to fix it.My initial sentim...

KOT, as you may know, the ML2 has a BIG transformer to make "36 Watts" at clipping; but even with this and the trick feedback it is not the first choice for large dynamic/OB drivers. Of course I mention this because of your remarks about the 6C33C, ...

[quote user="Jorge"]About the looks, well I listen to music with my eyes closed, so I dont really care.[/quote] Well, it is not how I see it. The topology of acoustic systems like Macondo implies the stand-alone tweeters. So, why do not make it attra...

I have to admit I have no idea and did not experiment with matching horn loaded tweeter to big ,direct radiating "extended range' MF channel. I'm not sure it's doable. I was speculating on the reasons why the owner of Moscow instalation switched from...

Since I last posted there has been some progress to my indoor and my outdoor systems. Indoors I have added a pair of tapped subs. I must say that I am quite happy with these. Of course they are not as good as full size front loaded horns but still a ...
