Though he seems to like running several TTs in parallel, I do not interpret Pham's page to show that he is running more than just one horn system; what I see is an evolution of a system. It looks like, in its latest iteration (under the heading "Syst...

Yes, Hamlet by the RSC can be a truly seminal experience in the original English; every academic I know working in literature thinks that their particular field is superior to all others "with the obvious exception of Hamlet". Shakespeare gets to the...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I'd agree with that. I wouldn't mind seeing the British PM being seen to support the manufacturers here (such as Avid & Naim!) in such a public way. However, such conspicuous consumption wouldn't be well received here ...

Well, I do not care about it anymore. Last night I spoke with Bud and, thanks God, he took this project form my hand under his wings. As the result I will be having whatever I need, implemented by the best method possible. I am very enthusiastic and ...

OK, after some experiments I did find something that reduced dynamics what Avicenna was on line. Avicenna has two power transformers. First one is a low voltage (6.3V/1A) transformer to feed Avicenna’s distortion analyses, oscillators, frequency PLL,...

Maybe you should get spectral data what your power supply secondaries look like in an case, my suspicion is that we have the exact same issues as with high order crossover networks when our power supplies have "high order" filtration. Maybe we ne...

Hi Romy,
If you're into exotic materials check out the latest wideband driver from SEAS with papyrus fibre impregnated paper cones:

In this thread I would like to talk a bit about the practice in DSET driven multi-way horns configuration.
I have expressed my view that the architectural configuration that Macondo and Super Melquiades end up to be I find is the most interest...

A few weeks back somebody pointed out me to a picture of this playback and I concluded that it is an idiocy. Today I had a few word with the owner of this playback and I read his articles where he describes what he is trying to do. I do not consider ...

[quote user="haralanov"] The horns, even the fast opening ones are physically too deep for their mouth’s size, and this leads to a psychoacoustic illusion that the sound images are arrested at the bottom of the horn and from there they scream they wa...

Romy,
Thanks for your comments. My plan is to seal the horns once I get them all (all 8 of them) to the "ready-for-finish" state (still a lot of work to do). At that point I will try contacting John.
In the mean time, I've acquired very solid r...

waveguides as far as i can tell are designed to equalize the power response.
for example if we are talking about a typical 2-way speaker with a 7" midbass and 1" tweeter then there will be a discontinuity in the power response around the crossover...

OK, let me to recall. We learned that the “hysteresis” (for a lack of better world) manifest itself on used tube only. Also, what I see in the images the one of the half of the used tube has more “hysteresis” then other. I think it leads to the follo...

Lots of good, relevant information lately in the new "Basic Guide to Advanced Audio" thread! But I don't want to orphan this thread because it is specific to speakers, which at this point means, drivers.So, germane to drivers, where should one start...

Hi Romy,Well, this is my (and my dad's) first horn system so we're learning/building one step at a time. Our motivation is simple, to use horns as low as possible.The very first DIY configuration was:TAD ET-703TAD 4002GOTO 505TTTAD 1603 Woo...
