Jessie, I love the way you have got it so you can EASILY move anything in any direction. I imagine this will be a key in maintaining your sanity as you and your system evolve together. And I agree with the form-follows function aesth...

It is like driving a car where one of the wheels is larger size and rectangular.

Hm, it is interesting… a few weeks ago I was trying to saddest Jessie that if he end up with 5-chanalls installation then it might not be necessary for to have exactly 5 channels of Melquiades. However, since I moved myself into 5 channels I be...

I finally added a -15 dB voltage divider to my ML2s last week to fix the noise problem from my L1 preamp - Why did I wait so long?!!The result is absolute dead silence. Nothing. Nada. It is almost impossible to tell if the system is powered on, ev...

Jessie, I just wanted to say that I make my own shorting jacks from the worst possible plastic Radio Shack RCA plugs and small, cheap (1/2 Watt) 100 Ohm resistors, which I solder across the +/- RCA plug connection points and then ...

Thanks for the encouragement, Jessie. Actually, a much larger "room" is available, but it is +/- "divided" by wing walls and an archway, along with a large side wall opening, that I know from experience would eff up the spa...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I live where FM program quality justifies a good tuner. Despite getting what I consider to be really excellent sound from this modded TU9900, I will one day compare it to a TU-X1. I will post my findings here.[/quote]

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]But about the Wilson video: At the risk of deviating into an area outside the intent of this site, I'm prompted to ask, what the hell is up with this style of presenting? It's really become a cliché... The "sincere" fixed...

[quote user="Paul S"]You might also want to try stiffened felt, which seemed to work "as well" as the paper for me, and it is easier to form. Just saturate the pre-shaped felt with runny "paste", whether gluten/starch or methyl cellulose, milk glue...

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...

Hi Jessie:It is indeed a (t)horny dilemna whether to get rid of the midbass horns now, with a view to starting all over again and customise the new horns for your eventual new home in Detroit or ship them at unfortunately what will be a very substant...
|

Yes, Jessie I have thought about it as well but whatever you do with 40Hz horn you end up with horn talk with each other. It is very simple to measure – use one as a transducer and put a measuring dB meter across the VC of second driver, treating...

Marcus, my opinion about it does not change.
Any systematic methods of simulation of horn driver/horn systems are true only within a scope of very specific coordinate systems that was chosen for predictions or simulations. It is wonderful for patent...

BTW, Jessie, this morning I opened a Super Melquiades and made some changes in plate current measurements. While I did it I took a shot of the Super Melq inside. The former image was made juts when I finished the amp. The current shot is actual stage...

Paul, Alinco magnets perfectly able to drop a charge "just like that" and I presume that it is what happened. If cause the environmental difficulties would not do it alone, at least for that time. Over winter I had output tubes worn up on both amps a...

Jessie, current is mentioned repeatedly because in the case of DC, and in this situation, the current is actually what one wants to meter out. Lamm just gave us a simple way to take a reasonably stable, real-time "measure of current" at this poi...

Msaudio, constructivism is almost squirting out of you, doesn’t it? But it ok, I got accustom to your attitude. If I feel that I will be able to get only 80 Hz then I would not proceed with this project. Do not worry about devalue of my property: unl...
