I also was disappointed in most of the SC LPs although they are far from the worst reissues IMO. It's just that the original deccas were so good its not easy to improve on them. I think a couple of their reissues of DGG LPs are usefully better than t...

Hi Romy,I believe you're right and it's due to the amount of LF the vinyl outputs, which may be more than the Bidat or the tuner do. It doesn't happen with all the discs, just some of them, which happen to be old recordings that probably have mo...

I took receipt of my new Anima speakers yesterday.Aesthetically, they match my listening room very well. Early days, but sonically, driven by my 211 mono amps with Elrog output tubes, they easily better any other speaker I've had in this room. It's f...

[quote user="kodomo"]Hey Anthony,Your project is going on track (and looks like a very good track)! Just a reminder about the room acoustics. You are talking about bass frequencies which are as dependent to the room as the speaker! Before installing...

Romy, I was delighted to see your video monologue, and I look forward to following along your new journey.No speaker can reproduce the reality of a live musical event for various reasons, and all speakers are by their nature a conglomeration of engin...

About 20 years ago Stereophile had a short article about a custom horn speaker system in the San Francisco area funded by a richie rich audiophile. They showed a picture of his system in a warehouse with humongous bass horn speakers far larger than p...

I heard a friend's horn system recently and was very impressed. I don't have the resources to put together a diy system as discussed here, amazing as they seem, but am looking for recommendations for commercially available finished horn speakers that...

Does anyone really have the resources, and the patience, and the evolved audio/musical discrimination to develop a 4 or 5-way FR speaker system from scratch, including each and every driver? I can actually see a "theoretical" benefit in using field ...

... Anyhow, if you feel that Morison Audio is a right implemented “360 degree dispersion at all frequencies into a solid angle” (soothing that actually never happen live) then is any place what the Morison Audio’s re...

I have no comments about it besides assuring that the company that state all of it does crap in term of Sound. Still, I find that the way in which they think about construction of the walls of their back-loaded horn worth very much attention. Tak...

It of course is hard to say anything about the midrange without hearing the speaker. LF and HF are surely standard yellow cone.It is cold in Germany this time of year. A GM100 amp would be an inefficient but beautiful heater in the 20 square meter ro...

What is interesting, and this is not Wheel-Fi problem but
much wider problem, that we in audio still are clueless how to present speakers.
The video above is fine but it is only fine in very confined zone of the Wheel-Fi
audio interests. As the re...

BTW, in the end of it’s live Fane tied to do flat loudspeakers. The try to convince that it was not the computer-grade but the real deal. Conceptually, if it properly implemented (a big opened question) then the flat design might be very interesting ...

Steve,
I hardly know what the NXT panels are and I hardly undusted them even after reading the 6moon article. I kind of understand what you are trying to accomplish, though I perhaps not exactly agree with the methods and means. Still, when we talk ...

I am still waiting for a (single stage) tube that can make full range Music via speakers. I mean, this is the real issue, isn't it? Sure a good tube will pass a "full range signal" through the right transformer; but where is the tube that will do t...

Last few years my interest in audio “out there” got subsided and nowadays I seldom exposed to new amps, speakers and other product that the industry offers. It only partially might be explained by the fact that I got worn out on the primitive s...

Hi Romy,You should have to check Tom Danley's speakers at http://www.danleysoundlabs.com/. He has quite a few tapped horn subs and Synergy horns for PA, but there are people using his speakers at home, like myself. I have changed from Avantgarde Acos...
