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...

He is UK based, somewhere down South near London. I bought one of his early Ladegaard arms , sort-of the Mk.1 version of the latest ones, and gave him some advice on areas like the counterweight etc. He is a very genuine and interesting chap who is s...

[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...

There's no zero-crossing with A2 .833 or equivalent are a good choice for this extreme project and bass performance is excellent, I have heard 833 SE briefly and it has great authority.The driver would best be some sort of small/medium output valve d...

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 is very interesting , congratulations .It seems like you have discovered something that gives greater emotional connection to the music.Is it affecting various types of music ?MJ...

Ah thanks Romy , I should have spotted the option of filter before vol pot. This may be enough for now. I do have some Dale stepped-attenuators from a previous project if I need to further experiment .Now, if I'm calculating, do you know if the vol p...

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....

Ok Thanks Romy.It might be worth a try then . In worst case I can afford to buy these, with luck I may be able to borrow a pair .I will report back eventually , but at this stage the project is just forming, as the horns are only just ordered from Ma...

Romy.Have been reading various threads to glean information on tweeter options. I read with enthusiasm your experiences with the RAAL teardrop tweeter until I saw the price, then had to change my plans.Your brief comments on the T90A ( affordable in ...

Absolutely .I was hoping to have impressions already, but events took an unexpected course.I'm also trying to get a re-tipped Dyna XX-1L from same people via a dealer, so they are busy with my stuff for sure right now .The new cant and diam...
