Hello, Angelo

Yes, Avantgarde can do it if the situation is right. I ...

agh..well.. i can see that you'd never be over for a beer and listen session, romy! not that i wouldn't invite a curmudgeon such as yourself.. but my own system might not make the cut!i just finished off a little 2 way bms/altec system (and i d...

Hi Romy
a good sound in a room does not depend only on the speaker chain, but essencially also of the room acoustics. Probably many of the Trio systems didn’t sound right just because of that…. I was at Holgers Home in Lautersbach back in 94. He ha...

Well, since this thread is about the BMS drivers then what can I say? When I tried the BMS driver I felt that their “absolute tone” ability was at the level of demands of school auditoriums. Read more about “absolute tone” at:

speaking what you really think is often percieved as arrogance.. so i wouldn't worry about that, and i wouldn't take offense at somebody who's worked on their system extensively (even with similar drivers) speaking their mind. kinda the point o...

hi romyi am listening now abought 2 weeks my orphean horns. when they arrived, i first connect them to my electronic crossover, and they sound horny, very bad. after i connect them to the own crossover, sound changed right away. now, that i heard mos...

Yes, it’s the drivers that inspired me to write up this thread. The response looks like it rises slightly atop but it is almost OK for this type of the drivers. Running the driver off the axis it is possible to roll off the HF rise. It is pretty much...

[quote user="op.9"]Anyhow, what are the 2" comp drivers that ARE any good and are available comercially? I didnt go with any JBLs because I had a very bad time with the 2427 1" version, could never get any music out of it. [/quote]

Yes,I then did understand why you went into Bert and business and connection with sound (it works well as a general example). I don't know how you came to that conclusion of Bert fits into this model though. I didn't-- aft...

I have tried a BMS driver a while ago and it was really bad.About a year ago i heard Berts setup at his house and it did not impress me... It was also with the coaxial BMS.Not much depth or resolution. Did have alot of power though but was difficult ...

Hello Marc Henry,I am curious as to why you picked the 4540 driver for HF. I have no experience with this unit but it is interesting since the design claims to be of the "ring-radiator" type. This topology was invented by Steen Duelund for use in reg...

Thanks Johan, I got my SG505's and S150 horns, my throat piece is a lot longer than the one you showed above. Why can't they just sell that little screw... along with lots of other "why can't they"...Anyway, I just reread this thread and I can m...

I have written in past about my lack of love to the BMS drivers. The crazy, as far as I concerned “annoyingly wiling” angeloitacare brought this subject to this forum while he was galloping across Web, “picking from graves” about his new dB-Design’s ...

[quote user="serenechaos"] Bret said the BMS …his web site says he modifies them. I didn't know it then, or know to ask what he did to modify them. I guess they were even worse? [/quote]

One might think that the BMS coaxial compression drivers might be especially coherent and superior to the dedicated mid-high solution, but I find there is something wrong with them (and I don't belong to those who dislike the character of BMS drivers...

to reel from 7 volts or 700 volts is equal to the reel. should rather ask why or why 7 or 700 volts. should be asked how you intend to use the horn driver, you should ask graphs of frequency response and power handling. build a field coil driver is ...

fair enough- you're absolutely right, i didn't!it's difficult to get that perspective on sonics without legitimate guideposts-- even with a lifetime of playing and recording music, it's difficult to know what the parameters of recorded sound ar...

I wasn't trying to critique Bert, or even get into an in-depth critique on the Swing, more Compression Driver configurations -- vertical vs. angled, and coaxial, (and maybe other factors which affect Sound). But I'm more and more real...

[quote user="be"]"This topology was invented by Steen Duelund"Ah-hm, ring radiators where not invented or even re-invented by the Steen Duelund dude, just copied. JBL used the priciple 40 years prior to that in: 2402-2403-2404-2405 and Fostex have b...

op.9,
to put your comment I perspective it is necessary to know what surface you had on your Lecleach horns before. If you search the site (use world textured or structured) then you would know that I am a vocal opponent of smooth surfaces on horns....

[quote user="Dominic"]Here's a threeway with the BMS coax like in your orpheans nested in what i think is a 80hz horn which is driven by 2x15"sI'm not sure how well the time alignment works. I think the woofers are a bit too far back.in any case: [/q...
