What the sonic impact will be? I clearly have no idea. I was slightly desponded and warned that my excremental S2 with electromagnet did not have the “sonic impact” that I find useful.Regardong the Quartopuss... Chris, you're confused because t...

My first impressions a about the “differences” of field-coiled derived form the time when I ran the Telefunkens war time drivers but at that time I had no reference how the same driver would act with permanent magnet. Also, the Telefunkens are the re...

I do not know how my S2 driver will sound but I defiantly know that it will have the problem with temperature. Looking prematurely at the driver’s sound it looks like it produce the necessary magnetic force at 2A-2.3A, that heats a lot of this driver...

Romy, I was asking questions here, and @ RMAF because I'm trying to gather enough information to build compression drivers. At my day job I am a prototype machinist at Los Alamos National Lab. I don't plan on going into production, j...

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 ...

yes romy but my english is badThe JBL 2420 alnico sweet sound with my trumpet tactrix not felt the need for a tweeter, but the high was a bit behind. with the field coil at 100 volts sounds almost equal all'alnico but increasing to 130 volts, so that...

I'm probably revealing my ignorance by even asking this, but I'm
curious to know if a field coil ribbon tweeter could be practical. It
occurs to me that if one could be made, it would be a lot safer since
it wouldn't be a black hole for magnetic o...

Well, I screw-in today the S2 with filed-coil into my horn. I decided to drive it with 2.4A. I used a regulated DC PS and did not employ my prepared for this tusk 4.2 Farad capacitor: the voltage is too high for my cap. The current gave me a ni...

I have re-read your post and your tone sugests that field coil drivers wi be used by manufacturers purely for their marketing appeal and not for any sonic improvement, Thomas Woschnick has just taken delivery of a pair of Cessaro Beta's which u...

Hello chaps,Firstly, something I forgot before was that the high impedance coil will have more turns... so the DCR etc will be stepped down as seen by the voice coil. My guess is that overall it will still provide slightly less damping, due to imperf...

for me is not new driver , is only a mechanic puzzle without research .is beautiful work if make for personal game but is fake if make for business....

Actually I was more thinking about making the magnetizing coil with 3 taps, let say for 100V, 160V and 222B. This way it would be possible to mitigate the coil impedance and to regulate how “fast” the diver will operate. The setting the right taps an...

Leaving open the magnetic flux to the nucleus is smaller and therefore the tweeter sounds much slower . All the tweeter is in magnetic steel ( except in some parts ) but the magnetic force is concentrated on the core . Since I use a translator to try...

Ah i just read your article, and its funny that i share the same believ. While you were experimenting with the telefunken field coils did you also notice that the amount of current running tru the field coil also has a great of impact on sound and re...

[quote user="Paul S"]Meanwhile, I was thinking
about field coil drivers, not to introduce a new topic but to re-consider the
driver itself as "tune-able", at least with respect to the gap. [/quote]
Not willing to much to hijack the thread but I ne...

David,
You can trace him from his commercial site
http://www.field-coil.com
I do know if it his site but he most likely hangs around there. I think that field-coil.com is rather a group of people with certain interest and certa...

Yes, CV, I thought about it myself and I fine that this might be VERY interesting to play with. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I am months away from the position when I will be able to do it. The subject is devilishly interesting however. I think it ...

After several tests of listening and somehow I felt that the best solution is fully closed. The heat is part of the project and not to damage the diaphragm, also the hot air is compressed better than cold and thus distorts less. Even leaving the cont...

Are you decrying the use of field coils per se? A friend has been experimenting with them in a specific utilisation and has had very promising results....

Hi Romy, Splendid work - much appreciated research this!I know this is totally premature, but if you do find that you prefer the S2 as the flux is increased and hit a current limit for the coil, then you *might* get a flux benefit by using a lower ca...

Romy, I presume this is with the new production diaphragms? Just wondering if the old ones might restore some of the youthfullness which was diminshed by the field coil?...

The subject of electromagnetic, or as they called field-coil drivers, popped up at my site numerous times. (Look as it list of related threats). The advances or shortcomings of electromagnetic drivers are arguable, I have my vision, but it is not the...

I still say you will get the same "effects" if you current source a low voltage supply. Or, easier, put an inductor in series with the windings after your filter cap.The way I look at it is that the voice coil is the primary of a transformer; the cor...

In fact I posted a question to Wolf and he replied that he can produce the coil of any voltage the customer would like to have. That is good. The below is data by Wolf von Langa:
