Ming,
what you say is not exactly accurate. I have MANY desiccations about it with number Goto users in past and if I am not mistaken then even some kind GOTO official from past event argued this point with me. He insisted that Goto require 4...

thanks for the good infoactually we are developing a full horn-loaded speaker the bass-bin is just inspired by Klipsch La Scala (just like Volti speaker) with curved sides. the mid-range consists of TAD 4001/Beryllium in Edgar wooden Tractrix horn an...

While I feel like the layout of an orchestra is a sort of sacred thing, I will never the less put forth the following question :
Is the layout of an orchestra time aligned?
Whenever I attend a performance where classical music is played by an orc...

hey jessie-I've wondered the same thing-- and the more i end up twiddling around with it, the more I think it really either comes down to good measurements, or good listening! And in fact.. probably both in conjunction!I have a small 2 wa...

[quote user="drdna"]While I think it has a lot of potential, I worry that the added complexity may lead to new problems that may outweigh the benefits derived, even if it is done very carefully, one of which is time alignment as pointed out.[/quote]H...

The idea of using this type of midbass horn seems good, but I don’t see a solution for time alignment of the horn with the other channels. You have a freedom to physical align it if it is placed in the same vertical plane with upperbass mouth, but th...

The Dima’s idea of delaying the modulated signal still not in the auditable format. As I understand he designed the circuit and we get all parts we need but it moves forwards slow. The devise will have modulator, delay mechanism, demodulator and outp...

Romy!Just to be cleared, GOTO has never claimed that time alignment is not important nor to suggest their customer that time alignment is not important. In a home listening environment, it is very difficult to do time alignment with a 3 or 4 way...

I think clearing this up this may be of benefit to other users who are building multi-way horns.
Let's say I've got two horns mounted on a frame. There's a high horn
above and a mid horn below and they are physically time aligned, meaning
th...

I have today a local audio guy stop by at my place for some listening. He never was in my new place and was curios what have done with my new room and my new installation; he was in my old room. When I asked him to criticize what he heard he mention ...

There are a few at least theoretical backdraws for the Array in my view.Of course having a lot of different drivers playing at the same frequency implies that all of them should work in perfect unison, if one starts lagging a little bit it will mess...

HiWell I am fairly new to active speakers. I've been in contact with Merlin and Guy in the UK about these type of speakers and their experiences. I'm just taking it all in and then going forward making a few mistakes and then learning about them!&nbs...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Assuming situation 2 is possible, receiving mid-bass primarily as reflected sound, one would have to take into account the reflected path of that sound, and how it describes the mid-bass part of the image, relative to the ...

The people who have brain, ears and common since were always wondering why Goto-company always discarded time-alignment even as a subject. I personally always thought that it was just ignorance on the side of the Goto-company and the Goto-users ...

Stefano, it is funny that you have mentioned the “an old, little cinema in a small town”. I do not know if you did it unintentionally or you meant as some kind of sarcastic self-deprecated joke. What I mean is that the initial industry demands for ru...

Stefano.
I think you are confusing two things - moving channels and time alignment. Moving channels changes the relation between channels and room. It is powerful and expressive tool. Time alignment is the unanimous arriving of wave front to ears of...

These are some theoretical questions, I guess we can only build them and see, but some would be clear no no....
|
This type of the “time alignment” has as much to do with time alignment as if they whistle into the horn and observe the re-entering echo. What they do is perfuming the ritual dance in front to the loudspeaker that called “trade show ballet”. The Sit...

When the RED has 12dB x-over and the Mocando is all 6dB, then you have addition in the treble and subtraction in the bass ore vice versa. Impulse spikes will always have right polarity, since the RED is 10dB down. If one recorded a track with the RED...

2) I do not think that you will be able to time-alight the upper bass channel but you need to wave-align them. Make sure that upper bass and MF tit the top of the wave at the same time. the w...

A site visitor sent me emails saying:
“Johan Dreyer says he can hear no time delay with his bass horns…”
Well, first of all I disagree with it. The fact that Johan Dreyer can hear no time delay is not an indication that delay is n...

How could you figure this out? Even if vertical horn is saving space, the other channels would be so far back that space is a problem again?
No wonder I hate horns. Been avoiding them all my life, but now is the time in my life for Horns.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Here is pretty much the idea that I had – a very tall line array with min footprint and with more of less corrected timing error by angling the front baffle. At the picture below the curvature of positioning of Macondo chan...

What in Bill’s configuration is very interesting is how to figure out about the diver’s time aliments. The Midbass is time-aligned with MF but it aligned by min distance, I am sure. Yes, the leading edge of the Midbass arrives to listed sit the same ...

Murat,
I was looking at your midbass horn design and I am wondering, how are you planning to time align that long midbass with the rest of the channels that seem to be time aligned. I mean, currently the midbass is physically 4.3m behind all o...

Hey I read around here of the importance of time aligning drivers, and am trying to build it into my horn frame, but I'm starting to wonder, if tweeter frequency wavelengths are around and inch long, wont I completely loose any alignment if I sit hal...

time alignment?
why on earth have you got those horns aligned like that?
I have a pair of the same marinelli horns.. 15" wide. stunningly pretty, solid birdseye with tad-2001's.. i'm not impressed at all.
can't wait to put a tractrix or lecl...
