Thanks Romy.Sounds like tweeter on top will be best approach in my situation.The room is a good size and shape - 23ft x 15ft with 9ft ceiling . Plenty of room above.As you say the 288 on Azura does go to 12-13k OK with some beaming - almost enough re...

RomyIt's topical to ask, since I'm building a 4-way system at the moment ..( Tapped horn behind and three-way horn system in front )Do you favour the tweeter horn to be placed at the top, above the mid/HF horn , or in this situation place the tweeter...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I personally tend to use TT with heavy platters and I feel that if a platter is substantially heavy then there is no different how you would drive the platter. Put a platter of 100kG then you will never recognize HOW the pl...

I've been using the Teres 'Verus' rim-drive motor on a Nottingham 'Hyperspace' deck for about 6 months. The Verus was a major upgrade . The bass and timing got a lot better , that was obvious from a few seconds of listening. The midrange also got cle...

RomyHow about some sort of scaled-up PassLabs F4 or F5 amp ?ie. Class A solid-state with no feedback . You'd get most of the characteristics of valve (tube ) SE in terms of spatiality and low-level info ( esp. in the bass ) but with less of the (daun...

RomyThis topic is relevant to me currently as I am attempting to get a 750Hz low-pass into a valve (tube) amp that is driving a bass section ( Supravox 285GMF in an Onken cab ).I have run through a few options in my head but can see various problems....
