I've been thinking; rather than placing the mid-bass horns off to the sides or above the rest of the horns as in the first two images below (a CAD model of the horns in my new place); a plan which implies accepting imperfect time alignment...Ori...

Here's how I would do it: The day before: Reserve two lifts and get two pieces of old carpet (about one square yard each) and two bottles of champagne. Insist that everyone involved gets a good night of sleep before attempting to install the horns (t...

Electricity was very good for the K&K/vinyl today so I again compared the battery power to wall power for the iDAT-44+. To make a long story short, the battery was still better in terms of music, including better focus, which does not come ...

I know it is a difficult subject but as it has to do less with audio but more with life priorities. Still, the practice indicates that the short-wall installations for acoustic systems of the topology that Steve is trying to make will never work. Sur...

James, you said that “Romy seems sure that Line arrays will only work properly when used on the long dimension of the room”, still you do not defined what it “only work properly”. Wherever you put the woofers they will work – the question would...

[quote user="JJ Triode"]I predict in the long run you will have better Sound with a hardwood floor. Of course it will require some adjustments but that was my experience when I made this change years ago. Much easier for cleaning etc. too. Rather...

Well, with my unit, you are right under one condition. It does not matter if I am on the battery or the ac line as long as the unit is connected, it sounds the same but it does not perform good. However if I am on the battery and I disconnect the reg...

Interesting. with sealed 280 sq feet and 8 drivers per side along a long wall you very much migh be able to use a singe 6C33C. With proper loading, good trasformer, DSET and these drivers you should be able to get bass that I doubt you will be able t...

Haven't yet seen a camel here. I don't believe they are indigenous to the region. It's challenging being away from home, but no carnal thoughts of animals - yet.bty, my interest in this thread is motivated by solving the same problem. I need to fi...

Klaus,I should start by saying that I'm not a scientist and not an engineer. I arrived at the following conclusions as a result of a little research and some thinking about the problem. It is possible that I am incorrect.I don't know how yo...

The horn mouth will be 3-4 foot from the wall but you are right the MF/HF will be closer if i dont delay them so i can bring them out from the wall. If i line them up purely acousticly then they will move forward at least two more feet which puts the...
