[quote user="martinshorn"]The 75 cycle suckout
likely resonates very long after, guess u can hear the tale after the impulse.
I guess there must be an alisson effect around your seat of 3-4 feet (?) [/quote]
I was wondering about the 75Hz su...

Yesterday was a truly wonderfully
day. I spent the whole day to play with playback, had a LOT of fun with it found
some unexpectedly good solutions that made me very excited.
The project with IB is
over, the result is surprisingly good. ...

[quote user="Ronnie"]I'm curious about how you set up your horns in the room.From photos it looks as if they are fairly close together, compared to the wide setting you suggested I try, while our room dimensions are fairly similar?When I started push...

[quote user="anthony"]This is excellent
information Romy. I have been worried about crossing the woofers at 100Hz
and would be much happier if I was able to cross them lower. We will see
how everything integrates into the room and if I do need t...

[quote user="anthony"] Briefly, I tried altering some operating current on
the valves and now have a better understanding of how DSET can be used to shape
the sound. It is one thing reading about it but another thing entirely
when you turn a knob...

[quote user="Marc HENRY"] For this Musique-Concrete horn system called "Grande Castine" (it was developped in Saint Cast Le Guildo, Britanny, France, from were females inhabitants are called "Castines" ) i prefered a modified 60Hz Le Cleac'h cylindri...

Devo, the GM-100 for sure is a good triode to get 160 watts
output power in A1. Still, it would be a good chose, from my point of view,
ONLY from a prospect of embracing as good DIY audio project. There is nothing wrong
then to do the good DIY aud...

user="anthony"]I guess I am lucky that the Bass Cannons can be run
off 9w from the DSET bottom channel and from memory I get about 115dB at 18Hz
once room reinforcement does its magic. One of the few benefits of a
small room. [/quote]

[quote user="anthony"]I seem to
remember you had this sort of issue when setting up your previous room and
eventually you moved them time aligned.
The one stack of 15" and 10" sounds
like a nice solution. Do you think more 10" scanspeak instead ...

Anthony, I am not so thrill
that you are unlashing your into this direction. Not that it is my business and
you can do whatever you want. Still, I feel that methodologically it is not right
way to build a playback. What I mean is that to evaluate ...

I have placed the addition 2 woofer section to my bass tower
and connected everything. It would be lying if I would tell you that I did not listen
it. The result I got is long expected and my tail was trembling. So, here are some
non-connected obs...

After a few agonizing days I think a have decided for a provisional
solution. Listening and thinking about
options on a table and my current desire to invest time and resources I went
with 6+2 direction.
I have order 4 separate relatively-sma...

[quote user="anthony"]My interest is
mainly in the 10Y/801A/VT25 tubes on one hand and the 45 on the other hand.
The YO186 also interests me a lot especially after reading your
impressions of it in your circuit and system, but it is a very diffic...

I would like to make a few comments about the entire idea of those expensive Japanese compression drivers: GOTO, ALE and alike. I have voiced the near-similar outlook about the irrational exuberance that some audio people express about electromagnet ...

Loudspeakers. For whomever who follows my dairies on this site and whoever has any real understanding what makes a horn-loaded loudspeaker to sound good it is know that Macondo Acoustic System is not juts the result of my DIY efforts or the John Hasq...

*** I am positive that if
you get 100 pieces of exactly your model of Tannoy, they will ALL sound
different.
Very likely, I have 6
drivers and one of them sound as I need, all the rest of them are compromised.
They still have the similar char...

[quote user="Murataltuev"] I understand all
disadvantages going digital.
I strongly believe that minimal influence to the signal is the most important
aspect. And influences in digital domain are usually terrible. But I'm not sure

Hi Romy,
I am planning my own DSET build. I have based my speakers on your Macondo and
am busy turning MDF horns in my spare time.
Once that is over I will move onto amplifiers. I plan to build a fullrange Melquiades for a
friend and the...

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...

It is great that Wilson did anything like this, thank for

reading when they start taking about listening impressions. The listening
impressions from those people are truly ...

It looks to me that I will be able to live with my 6 driver
line array. Again no measurements were made but it is what it “looks”. Sound-wise it is very reputable and I just might
leave it as is. My current room is 6 larger to what I had in downto...
