[quote user="Thorsten"] First, the Lowther has ze wizzer cut off and has an Equalisation circuit to flatten ze upper midrange bump. Otherwise it is run fullrange, that is WITHOUT HIGHPASS OR LOWPASS. [/quote]
Probably this is why the Lowther sounded...

Roman,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Regarding the absents of the band-pass filters… Perhaps you are correct.[/quote] I am correct, I have been inside Hoerning speakers, to find "what makes them tick"....[quote user="Romy the Cat"]However, they...

I have heard Lamm ML2's in a couple of different people's home systems. Did they know how to use them properly? Well either they didn't (quite possible) or the amplifiers simply lacked the virtues I would prefer.Tommy Horning is the guy who makes tho...

Romy,I am very interested in this thread as I have heard the latest version of the speaker "eufrodite mk IV" . I do not think any of your objections would be changed by the latest version as he is now using push-pull array of beyma 8" drivers up to 2...
|
Rony, the Vitavox S2 is an interesting MF driver for 110dB sensitivity. In near or sub 100dB there are plenty interesting MF performers. The Lowther doing MF only and do not stretched for idiotic full range is very good option and Horning did show it...

You have mentioned that you want a much larger enclosure for your oops unit[s]. I was then wondering if you aim to merely broaden and/or lower resonant response or if you planned to in some way tailor resonance as it relates to Fs. T...

R,More interesting observations there. Your Lowther thoughts are similar to mine - I always wondered what a lower flux version would sound like, but non-horn loaded and whizzerless a la Horning. Even got round to obtaining some magnet-less motor...
|
It just ocurred to me to stir things up by posting here about the fact that my own DEBZs (somehow) absorbed 600W peaks during a recent Mahler 3 frenzy. I remember reading somewhere that some owners of the biggest Horning speakers would run them at 12...

[quote user="Wojtek"]It should not be a problem for you to borrow one of those plastic 150-200 Hz horns for your REPS .[/quote]I heard it a couple of times in a different settings several years ago. Although I was interested in the application ...
|
Romy, it sounds like, as usual, you have covered a lot of ground already before you put out your first questions about ribbons.FWIW, I presently use Arum Cantus G2Si ribbons, phasing them in at 10k Hz to supplement the Lowther DX4's dreaded...

Roman,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Last year the speaker was presented by “Horning Hybrid Perikles” importer who told me that they demonstrated: “3-ways loaded into the same horn loudspeaker”. I asked him to explain what dose it mean “3-ways loaded int...
|
Haralanov, you might not get it from my actions, but I actually understand and agree with everything you are saying, in principle. At the same time, I have no idea how to address such a sharp peak mechanically, since adding mass as usual would just m...

[quote user="serenechaos"] Yes, I feel it necessecary to include context of electricity, source, amp, and driver loading, when discussing driver sound even if (as in this case) I have to say I don't really know all the details of what they are--the d...
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
Still, I do not feel that amplification and architectural decisions shell be implied in drivers evaluations, at least during the initial introduction. Of course the driver shell be powered with a proper amp for a ...

I'm sure you've probably seen this before, but here is another example of shoe horning a large horn into a room.
Discussion of this approach can be found here: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/140190-jean-michel-le...

|
[quote user="guy sergeant"] I have not drawn any conclusions about how this amplifier might sound. I cannot imagine how the input stage you use will behave and how that will impact on what the 6C33 does. As I've said previously the Lamm amplifiers us...

I stopped by yestoday ay NY show for a couple hours. Somewhere in there SRA’s Kevin Tellekamp fished me and told me that he wants to show me something very interesting. He brought me into a room where Hørning loudspeakers were demonstrating. (http://...

Last week I spent a few hours at the scene of NY’s Stereophile Show – HE 2004: a half-day on Thursday and 2 hours on Friday. As many other audio-shows it had many semi-ugly colorations, however as any audio shows this zoo trip brought it’s own “inter...
