[quote user="mats"]Too late now for points, but just the other day I tried to imagine your plan. and I was pretty close.Actually, it is a bit like what I have going now; 15" Eminence bass guitarr woofers in a sealed 3 cu ft cabinet,Oris 150 with...

Chris, I did ask myself the same question: perhaps my given PTR9 is demagnetized. I called the last night to the owner of the tweeters and he said that he uses them for 7 years and they driver should be fine. He also expressed a lot of doubts if the ...

“Rather cleverly, festival director Alex Poots has brought the baroque bang up to date by commissioning a new concert space specifically for the performance of the great German composer. The architect he chose is that most radical of thinkers Zah...

[quote user="Paul S"]So this amp would not have to deal with a crossover? One R and one L in the signal path, it looks like a headphone amp, maybe a dream circuit for a light piston, HF only, given no cap/coil load at the [ribbon] driver. [/quo...

Upper range effect is amassing, though not much different then with other regenerators. With PS Audio’s Power Plant the compression at MF-HF is also reduced or eliminated and that ugly heavy dense pressure blanket got lifted. The Power Plant while do...

hi Paul
I was just checking recently.
My electrostatics work great, they also got excellent radiation in HF as the outer stators are lowpassed, so im using very slim 1 inch stripe (50 inch high) in the center only. Excellent radiation and smooth...

[quote user="anthony"]There should be an 111dB tap
on the Lazy Ribbon, but perhaps you have tried that already. Other than
that, perhaps talk to RAAL to see if they can improve the sensitivity a little
more with a transformer change (or something...

[quote user="el`Ol"] Hello Romy, have you searched for explainations for these observations? Are there others who made the same observations and tried to explain them? Does the damping factor play a role?From my limited experience I can say that ...

Yes, yes. This ooops thing is important.
For many years I happily listened to PHY KM30 fullrange in crazy
thin-plywood semi-open baffle boxes. And - apart from loud piano music
- they are really quite terrific. Very communicative and easy to get...

My excrements with the RAAL “Water Drop” tweeter are gong on. It looks like it much more complicated to make it to work in Macondo but I hope I will get there. I have some preliminary feeling about the drivers but they are too row and I do not feel t...

I was trying to strategize what would I do it tomorrow someone get in touch with me and offer my $50K. In another words what would I do to convert the Altec 19 to Cetla Ledom?This is an interesting discussion itself as it gives a blueprint for me...

[quote user="Dresden"]hmm...I didn't realise I had left my browser logged-in to your site (I left my PC on over night, downloading some files).

A always considered that there are two altimate clowns in audio-press: Srajan Ebaen from 6.moons and Steven Rochlin from enjoy the Music. If I perceive Steven Rochlin as some kind of freakish “Da Ali G” of audio then Srajan stir within me with ...

A lot of people ask me about those drivers and I’ll try to compile my vision about them. I did try most of the possible tweeters: dome tweeters with cloth cones, varies type of hard metal domes, compression drivers with aluminum, titanium, phenolic a...

Observations and Thoughts from theRocky Mountain Audio FestBy Earl Geddes
First I want to thanks all of the kind people who came by the GedLee room. I hope that we both learned something from these meetings.
The Fest this year had about twice as ma...

I'm not sure I understand what point you consider a priority, but I can explain the reason for my initial inquiry and what I intend to do.My initial inquiry was intended to acquire information on whether a horn with a target range of 40Hz to 400Hz co...

I am quite fascinated with the result that I might get from MiniME and at the same time I am defensive with the direction it takes. Anyhow, here is how it stands…
The decision to go for MF driver was I think right one. Even the 70-20RX tweeter has s...

At recent Nord-West trade show Jeffrey Jackson, the guy who runs Experience Music site, demonstrated his new horn Installation. I know little about it and would like to make some comments about what is feel is obvious from the image.

We understand that Charlus’ selection of drivers are not a selection yet but some kind of very preliminary idea of the drivers that he feels like he like. I said “he feels like he like” not accidently. I do not think Charlus, or anybody else in h...

Yes indeed. The company was originally Nova Physics and appears to have been sold on to Sam Laufer, a lawyer by profession originally who brought in Mark Porzilli of Melos and Pipedreams fame. I do not know if this company actually manufactures or se...

The Morons™ at AA’s between selling to each other what they did not like and topping each other on their shoulders came up with a subject what horn installation would be if price would be no object. The question is semi-foolish as price is never ...

I admit I haven't statistically substantiated this to any great extent with commercial speakers (only with a pair of non-ribbon Genesis).[quote user="Romy the Cat"]

I would like to share my 5-way horn project.
The idea was to have full range system, so the first horn built was Tapped Horn.
I got design from Volvotreter.de and was really impressed with performance of this monster.

Thanks Romy,
I would have thanked you sooner but I had the day OFF of my day job today and had no time to post until now.

I had a feeling there was no easy answer, wasn't sure if I was missing something, had scoured posts for a whi...

Hi Romy,
Sunfire? No! Who would add a Sunfire to this system? The black box in the pictures a power amplifier for the midbass horn.
A second MF could be interesting. I will see if we can do some test set up of this. Per has the space for it...

OK, it took for a while but at this point I have nailed down all design aspects of the new 6-channels Super Milq, and particularly its input stage. I have listen and evaluated all solutions that will be implemented in there; selected, appraised and o...

I would agree that the Lowther is not hard to beat but the question is where and in whose mind does this competition exist? Is the Lowther, Manger, or other full range single driver in competition with different multi-driver approaches, other single ...
