[quote user="Kerry Brown"]Adrian, as I recall you live in San Francisco. You are still welcome to visit and listen to my horns, I'd like to hear your setup as well. I am curious how your Edgarhorn system compares to mine. Anyone else who would like t...

A friend of my after reading my comments about the EdgarHorn installation in Vegas (in here) asked me why do I think the bass in Bruce’s room behave as it behaved. I tried to think about it. Some of those thoughts intersect with some other projects t...

Adrian, I had Edgarhorns that have evolved since I bought them in 2005. In my current set-up, nothing remains of the original Edgarhorns as conceived by Bruce, other than the speaker system remains front loaded horns. I noticed the same sense of he...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]You use Edgar’s refrigerator subs that use own LF SS amps (that use EQ of I am not mistaken), so you do not use the full advantage of SET LF sound.[/quote]You are correct, though I believe the subwoofer covers only below 40...

"The top response of the upperbass channel is challenged. I do not know why it is – a wrong driver, a wrong curve in J-horn or wrong made filter… "
That sweep mirrors what I hear - specifically tepid and weak upper bass in the presence region betw...

[quote user="slack key"]I know that speaker position and room acoustics are important. I use a laser to align the speakers, room treatments, hallographs, crystals, ionizer, Z-sleeves, bybee filters, etc. I also have power conditioners, installed de...

Have you tried using the Edgar350/2441-combination between the upper bass- and midrange horns, like Romy’s fundamentals channel?
I use a very similar combination (140 Hz and 600 hz tractrix with Studio 8M and JBL 2420 drivers, respecti...

Someone at AA’ sewers posted his measurements of Edgarhorn system, supplemented with a subwoofer and Fostex Tweeter. I do not know the poster personally, most likely he is another AA’s advice seeker – means another idiot - and therefore it is ha...

The EdgarHorn Titan is a very well made speaker, but I have identified in it a limitation in the midrange where the frequency response may not be ideal. This will become clear after I have analyzed the speakers with RTA.
Thinking ahead, I want to...

You might change your mind after you put the PP2000 into the game. Anyhow, I do not know what Bruce did with his Titans tweeter; I do not even remember it they are in time-aligned position. The EdgarHorn Titans uses Fane ST-5022 bullet tweeter. I had...

Thanks very much for your prompt, courteous and informative reply!My thought about the crossover design for the EdgarHorn was due to a number of things:1. This particular EdgarHorn is being sold to make way for a Cain & Cain speaker which i...

[quote user="drdna"] 1. This particular EdgarHorn is being sold to make way for a Cain & Cain speaker which is based initially on a single-driver type backloaded horn. To me this suggested that the seller was seeking the benefit...

Romy,Since you have had experience with this particular driver, I wondered about your opinion of the sound. In my system I have the Edgarhorn Titans which use the JBL 2441 as the midrange horn driver. While I am generally quite happy with...

[quote user="skushino"] I think you are saying the effects of my room may be dominating any problems with the Edgarhorn bass, or at least I can't know since I don't have any objective data. Is this correct?
Maybe you're right. But here is wh...

[quote user="drdna"] And the explorations that led you from the original Melquiades to this current set-up are well-documented over a period on months. Still, it might be instructive (to me at least) to hear concisely stated your dissatisfactio...

If you are happy and enjoy the sound, that is all that matters!Do you have pics of your system?What drivers are you using? JBL 2441? Tweeters?What version of UBH do you have?I have a very close friend with a wonderful Edgarhorn system, I understand t...

[quote user="Paul S"]Regarding your HF: Do you use a naked ribbon over 10k? If the PP2000 has worked for you, you might want to try it.[/quote]Well, I will try the PP2000 after I have finished evaluating the new 2A3 tubes. The EdgarHorn Titans use a...

Romy,If you are looking for a cartridge, I would suggest:The London Decca Reference, great tracker, andThe London Decca Jubilee, closer to life, but not as good a tracker.For me, in my system, you remember I use the EdgarHorn Titans, etc., nothing co...

Hi Romy,I understand the need to determine if the upper knee of channel A sounds better, or the lower knee of channel B sounds better, to cover a given range.However, I'm contemplating having a 1.4" 250Hz Edgarhorn built and am curious if you determi...

Yes, I have recognized those “flatted-ended” Edgarhorn Horns that I will be spending this weekend to correct. By "plugless" I meant that the phase plug will be removed in my fundamental channels as they would not be necessary in there and should prov...

[quote user="drdna"]I find the sound of my horn loudspeakers very satisfying, and by the way I have the EdgarHorn Titans, which may make you chuckle if you are a horn snob, but I think they do a very good job, one of the best commercially available h...
