As far as I remember the former presentations in the latest version there is less softening by the amps without sacrificing tonal neutrality and the digitally controlled bass section has less problems with the room. Mr. Martion always plays a very br...

Dan,
I do not know were you’re going with “next step”, but I do see that some people treat interaction at this site as another swamp of DIY movement. This endless DIY paranoia when people pursuit abstract BS objectives and fulfill bogus frustrations...

[quote user="clarkjohnsen"] And what they were doing, at CES 2006, was fine indeed. [/quote]
Nope it was not. Cogent sound was not near as interesting as it could/should be, and the Cogent boys know it, or at least they are slowly learning it.&...

Martinelli Sound is US based hornmaker. It offers small HF and MF rectangular but semi-nicely rounded horns, hoverer, as I understand they are opened for custom solutions as well. I did not see Martinelli Sound’s making a big splash among horn enthus...

Amy clearly acknowledged the difference but when I asked her to describe to me the difference ... and she begun to explain to me the deference she heard it from a position of a sting player. It was fan to hear from her...

Mario, I don't know how many "audio" sites you have salted, but I wonder if you read this one before posting your blurb. It is nice that you have spent some time trying to get a natural sound for you recordings via controlling some of the typica...

It seems the pure power 3000 diagram is like below :The battery voltage in new pure power+3000 is 72v (6x12v in 230v version) and the battery voltage convert to 330v by a switching dc to dc converter if i am not mistaken.What is your idea if we remov...

[quote user="js"]Could anyone please advise me as to the recommended rear chamber volume for a Le C'leach horn with a throat of 240cm2, mouth of 7089cm2, length of 47cm, cutoff of 160Hz, T of 0.8? I'm thinking of using a Beyma 122Nd which has a sd o...

[quote user="el`Ol"]Titanium diaphragm drivers that are completely free of the titanium nastiness (you can believe me, I usually show strong allergic reactions to it) are the Eighteensound drivers with titanium nitride coating. I heard one in the...

A given driver might sound very different when it's deployed in different ways, so putting it in a box just might make it sound "better" to you (vs. OB), for your particular application. But why did you choose this driver? What about its sound att...

Actually there are many hidden aspects of DPOLS, the aspects that, many audio people who never experienced DPOLS but wiling to argue about it, do not even understand. Interesting that by observing some of this aspects is it very easy to detect where ...

Romy -
I am interested in how you personally discovered dpols for your own personal reference. You Say:
"Actually it is not
really correct because if you approach the DPoLS from the position of
“tweaking” then you NEVER di...

One big thing for Gordon Holt was to create a standardized language to be used to describe what we hear. If you think about it, this task is made very difficult by the fact that there are really very few aural-centric modifiers; rather most des...

This is an interesting question.Audio is the reproduction of sound. What one makes of an audio system has to do with one's goals in life, not audio in general, as it is a tabula rasa, more or less.For myself I have found that I seek a connectio...

I was spending my time shopping for pianos a few years ago. I used to work too much, and was looking for an alternate 'right-brain' activity to balance all my time doing engineering at work. I spent a few months listening to every imaginable piano:...

I've been thinking about this matter for a while but could not find a better excuse to formulate my theory then in this topic. My simple theory is that if we reduce our concept of "music" the more fundamental concept of "sound" as point of reference ...

Clark, there is much about sound that delights me, including the sounds involved in Music, and I also enjoy at times the hi-fi, especially as I fancy it to be a "vehicle" for Music. Of course the audio does not necessarily render Music, and I can onl...

I think that there is a HUGE difference between listening to a recording for the first time, or a second, fifth or hundredth time. A live performance or recording for the first time is full of surprises - that disappear when repeating. The recording ...

"Then there are flutter echo like bathroom sounds that horns also sometime produce, especially if they have a glossy surface."What I meant was that the glossy surface causes a effect that is like or resembles the hard fluttery sound...

Romy, as you can see, I have never wrote that these parasitic sounds depend ONLY on the quality of the drivers. It is quite obvious they depend on many many many other things (practically everything) as for example bad microphones, bad microphone cab...

Actually a Tapped Horn would be bigger than a sealed enclosure, here is one of my first TH tests. The sound is very different than the sound coming form a Sealed encolsure. My first impression was that the bass was gone! There was no bass sensati...
