When I was in Paul Klipsch's museum in Hope several years ago ole PWK had several of those large upright Voight front horns such as Dominic posted and many Lowther-Voight drivers. Perhaps the old coot liked the things or found them interes...

Probably it would be good to start with a Paul Klipsch fragment,a bit foolish like anything else on TV, but still...
…and then here are 4 parts of the Jim Hunter’s introduction to the museum items. I found one horn idea in...

I've been thinking about trying the Klipsch Jubilee. The idea I have is to replace my bass channel (Aura 1808 in reflex box) together with midbass channel (Funktion One F115) with a single Klipsch Jubilee channel. Of course I'm talking about stereo p...

Yes, it is exactly the replica of Klipsch Rebel horn. I
did not see it before you mentioned it but you are right, it is the Rebel.http://images.klipsch.com/Brochure_540100_RB_635164773054556000.pdfIn my case, I use an unfiltered LF section from 605A...

Klipsch Jubilee using Celestion Axi2050 compression driver. https://celestion.com/product/axi2050/
On the page you have video showing construction of the driver, claiming unique cone and waveguide shape, and no need for using crossover.
Do ...

Yes, thank you for the confirmation. I was quite confident that they used other drivers as in the interview that I watched with the new Klipsch owner he claimed that he started Klipsch on compression driver division and it is what he used. It was ve...

[quote user="Paul S"]and dm did say he's tried (and rejected?) several SETs already, in the context of Klipsch Horns.[/quote]No, I didn't say that at all. I said that the were aspects of the 6C33CB's presentation via the Almarro A318B SET, that ...

I read the horn-related postings on this site with much interest because although I have not heard horns done right, at the same time I have always longed for a way to harness compression horns' absolute dynamic capabilities ...

Your corner horn design, as I just discovered, was patented by Klipsch (US patent 2731101): The Rebel horn. ...
|
I was looking about this Klipsch Rebel concept. It's looks like Klipsch dived into that Rebel configuration out of financial desperation. Is there more complex horns was too expensive to manufacture and sell and they come up with simplify version tha...

Personal, I do not use WE555 and I do not (would not) use the WE555-type horns. Hypothetically if one would go for 4-way system with WE555-like driver in upperbass then it is valid solution, not something that I appreciate but valid. The WE555 is ve...

As I read that darkmoebius wants the amps for a vintage dream "never-built" Olsen cornerhorn I have to ask myself if Melquiades is the first choice for his project. For one thing, do I remember correctly that you eschewed feedbac...

Lack of distortion, or suitable 2-level distortion
Perhaps, however how to estimate and to interpret them? If we are talking about the compression driver then they all made very crappy and each driver mig...

All below is written by Thomas Dunker
Yeah, "sound consistent independent of signal level" is a very precise way to sum up my whole speaker philosophy. Anything that is assumed to be constant, but which actually changes with signal dynamics is what ...
|
Romy, I thought the Ref3 mm-de capos sounded pretty good last I heard them. No idea if they are ported or not. I've been told the crossover is rather simple. To me, they did a good disappearing act. Probably expensive.For dece...

[quote user="MusicLover"] Higher even order distortion sounds richer and makes the sound "more live" to most people. YOu can get that anywhere in the signal chain. [/quote]
I know about it but it is NOT a reverse statement. It is very frequently tha...

Not too many of the cheaper horns have really interested me so far, but I think that we here should help others with this as it could better help them have some horns and horn interest in general. I haven't payed too much attention to much ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I wonder if any new interning horns ideas are present at CES. There is a post at the hi-fi-heroin site:

BTW, I was not kidding about the dual-concentric 8” Fane. They did make a version of Studio 8M with a tweeter in the middle. I have it sitting in my driver storage…Another BTW: the tractrix curve was not introduced by Br...

[quote user="Jorge"]Andrew,Dont buy all the drivers at once, I would get only the upper bass horn drivers and maybe the mid drivers, you will have to play around with these for a while before things start clicking toghether, by then who knows, ma...

thanks for the good infoactually we are developing a full horn-loaded speaker the bass-bin is just inspired by Klipsch La Scala (just like Volti speaker) with curved sides. the mid-range consists of TAD 4001/Beryllium in Edgar wooden Tractrix horn an...
