and the forum which has already perfectly developed herd behaviour is most appropriate one. Yeah, I worded the post in a wrong way (as usual) If you're in a position which allows you to have intimate experience with most Mass TT's on market via X...

It's probably as good or even worse than Acoustic Solid, Acoustic Signature , VPI , Teres , Galibier and army of heavy TT's you don't have to rob a bank and can buy third hand for fraction of original price. My undersanding is there weren't many heav...

Look what you have done to jack up pricess of vitavox (nobody was buying before your wistle) , Micro Seiki (gathering dust after Art Dudley wrote they bored the hell out of him) meittner dacs (suddenly the most musical in the market ;) Lamms (which a...

so you can access the top ?? And on the side 15" Altec 803A (hard suspension ) is a very nice wet and soft sounding midbass driver.Regards, W...

If you have some trees to be trimmed and branches cut on your property the crew could as well use their crane to lift the horns trough the skylight window and move them into place. Thats what they essentialy do with trees and big branches sometimes ...

Can't help with the plywood source , I'd like to buy some for myself for that price . Transition piece I'd do from stacked plywood layers screwed and glued together and cut with jigsaw. The way John Hasquin built your upperbass horns .He posted t...

You mentioned it yourself that the most interesting midbass you ever heard was from corner horns. Why not utilize if you can a pair of K-horns (or clones) bass (midbass really) bins with sort of moveable fake corners? They can be found dirty cheap th...

splitting the bass arrays on more sections(I think its possible?) trying to get rid of resonances and counter the nulls. Surely you would loose efficiency of line arrays. Maybe not such a bright idea after all but it's what Earl Geddes advocates all ...

It was an agent of Oswald Mill in mover's disguise. He didn't take PSU because it's not tube rectified. On a serious note I do hope that you'll be able to find it somehow burried in the stuff ,or it will miraculously appear on your door step.Regards,...

because floor josts support and extend the walls (they are solid 2"x6")so just screwed the board tightly to them. Because I needed the boards only within 10' so I have 3 rows of 5' +5' with the seam in the middle. I cut the second layer of bards so ...

I have so call "Michigan basement" which is rised (~4 ft) crawl space. Although the first floor of my small house is semi open floor plan 21'x21' the 10' middle wall dividing and separating the kitchen space makes setting difficult. I have K-horns in...

but I attached a double layer of 3'x5' cement boards (wonder board) under the suspended floor (crawl space) and it seems to help with bass a little.It's a cheap and fairly easy solution ($9 for a board) if you have an acces and helping hand.Regards, ...

I'd guess that the only difference compared to the modern version of the K-Horn is a throat plate size of 6"x13" like in EV Georgian and use of ticker 3/4" plywood for enclosure. Myself, I settled on Klipschorn as a midbass solution 40hz to 100-150...

Get in touch with Erik if you're not familiar with volvotreter web site already. His Trax calculator includes CAD numbers for profile drawing.I'm not sure how useful it'll be for your friend's CNC router. Check out www.diyaudio.com and AA for JLH Joh...

of nice looking S2 drivers on Audiogon right now for not unreasonable price of $2.5k obo. Not a bad deal to get a second pair for a fundamental channel....

Malinowski , are you still around? Did you get into making those midbass horns and if yes how did they turn out? Let me know .Regards, Klamecki...

I assembled SUN 2A3 amp for my friend and found it to be quality kit and very easy assemble. Kit was old .I think late 90's so maybe quality deteriorated since then. I have variety of 300b Czech tubes and (Eml 300b , KR 300BLX 842VHD ) bought t...

You could source used TAD tweeters for ~$1K pair .They sound exceptionally smooth and extended .More so than infamous T-350 and with better "tone" which may be relevant since your 288 are tonaly "dead" according to the Cat. Who knows, he may be right...

RobertAren't those meant to be driven by 250W SS amps ? Did you chose driver for your midbass already ? I thought that for this range 8" Lowther DX series with its 50Hz Fs and its "lean" sound could compliment your GOTO drivers (16 Ohm version has 3m...

I think it's already too late for that. A man should not go around and listen to stupid horn installations which can screw him up for a life 0).Robert , can you say why 65Hz truncated tractrix and not rectangular half space hypex or expo horns if you...

I corrected a mistake in amps construction but the thing I cannot explain is that after I picked up the drivers from Retsel they were much mellower /smoother sounding .Did hummidity change or they finally "broked -in" I don't know. Report...

Funny , I visited a guy who ususally picks up audio stuff from the curb (garbage picking) and noticed some 4 small Mission midbass woofers with crossovers. He said cab wasn't worth to save . What are the serial/ type numbers on yours, maybe the...

Geez , good for him ! Coming out of Banana Republic and trying to make a name for himself. Who can afford $4k tweeters if not Hollywood ?? I guess he realized that he wasted enough of his time with loosers ;0) Anyway what (mostly) am...

that since you already introduced sort of symetry with fundamental channel (covering much of midbass band)and it seems that you prefer simmetrical configurations (MTM)maybe you plan to go step further and add another 400Hz mid horn with S2. Just...

I don't have RF sweep generator but it's fairly easy to source here. I will take the tuner to local FM tuner tech to re-check alignment and we'll take it from there in a couple of weeks. I will have to read more about RF circuits trough this tim...

I'm strugling with dreaded Mcintosh Mr67 tuner . I borrowed one from a friend and it was very nice ;clear , crisp , dynamic so I went out and bought one for myself . It sounds like a mud and matches 100% of your description of average tube tuner...
