"the SG-570BL with S-150 horn mid-low isn't good between 100 or 150 (the horn name;-))"Why will it expect to be good at that range?? The S-150 horn has cutoff frequency of 150Hz. The suggested crossover point is 200Hz from GOTO.There is no doubt th...
|
This is a complex topic to setup a multi-horn system. What do you expect that something like this will come in a step-by-step instruction? It is years of effort to get it right. The discussion that we have here is wrong horn pair up with driver an...

You can hear a full 4 way GOTO in this event next month. Come down, stop by, enjoy and judge yourself, in person. http://www.capitalaudiofest.com/ July 8-10 in Rockville, MD....
|
Have you use GOTO dirver before? Have you try it with the "GOTO" recommendation? Have you listen to GOTO in your own system? If not, I suggest that you do it 1st and then draw your own opinons then. GOTO never said don't worry about alignment. T...
|
I think most of reader get my point of the car examples. The main point is to follow the manufacture recommendation on how to use the driver. Of course, if you want to do something different, that is your choice but don't come back and blame the dr...

As you can predict what I am going to say, those horns are the problem, not the GOTO driver.... Why will anyone buy GOTO driver and then not follow GOTO recommendation to use GOTO horn??? I don't think anyone buy a Lamborghini or Ferrari sport ...
|
That was the 4 way system designed by John Sheerin using GOTO drivers on my request. The tweeter is GOTO 160 with S3000 horn xover at 5kHz. The high mid is GOTO SG370DX with S600 horn xover at 1kHz-5kHz. The low mid is GOTO 505TT with S150 hor...

Romy,If you look behind the physical time alignment and start discussion about relative time alignment, that is a good start. Thing puzzle me about your view and comment of GOTO system setup that you have seen on pictures or web. How will you know ...

Dominik,Yes.Very funny picture!Minghttp://www.goto-unit.com...
|
Romy!Put on an engineer hat!
Time-aligned is an impossible task from my point of view. How can one perfectly time align different drivers? Align to what precision? mm, inch, cm or ft? 5%, 10%, 30% time align? Align to the tip of the cone or...
|
Romy!Just to be cleared, GOTO has never claimed that time alignment is not important nor to suggest their customer that time alignment is not important. In a home listening environment, it is very difficult to do time alignment with a 3 or 4 way...
|
Romy,GOTO do not release techinical information about their driver. If you have specific question, email me and I will be glad to forward your question to GOTO. It will take a while but most of time they will try their best to answer. That is gre...

The 37 is 20 year old model and it is not in production anymore. The current production model for export market are 370(110dB), 370DX(113dB), 3880S(116dB).The driver spec. is 400Hz to 18kHz but the recommended crossover range is 1kHz-5kHz with S600 ...

Keith,Any chance that I can visit you to hear your system? I will be glad to answer any of your GOTO question.Ming...

Mr. GOTO is a very shy person and does not want to force his view to others. But when asked, he always gives his best answer from his experience. When his customers want to try something different from his recommendation, he will encourag...
|
GOTO always recommend to use 1st order active crossover and 2nd order passive crossover. The reason to use 2nd order for passive crossover is to protect the driver. Of course, the user can use whatever they like the best but the recommendation ...
|
The current suggestion from GOTO is to crossover at 200Hz with S150 horn. Of course, you can crossover higher but what are you going to use to cover 220Hz down? If you choose to use the bass horn, you do want to keep it crossover low.&nbs...
|
I cannot say much for others but in my case, my listen room is fixed, either good or bad, larger or small. There are only so many ways to fit all the audio stuffs into a space. Of course, if the space is not an issue, time-aligned install...
|
Well, many ways to try but not much room that I can move around. I am happy with the sound and happy that I still have a listen room. BTW - my seating position is 10 ft from the bass horn. My room is only 22'x15'x9'....
|
Hi Keith,That is an interesting way of setup the S150 horn. Most of GOTO setup that I have seen set the S150 high and point down to listening position. All of them crossover the S150 + SG505TT at 200Hz to 1kHz range. I wish that I h...

The SG505TT driver can be used with S150 and S200 horn. The crossover frequency suggested by GOTO for each horn is as follow:S150 - 200Hz and S200 - 270Hz. Of course, one can use the single SG505TT driver to pair up wit...
|
SG505TT + S150 horn crossover at 180 Hz is not recommended by GOTO. The SG505TT driver is not recommended to use with single throat S150 horn. Double SG505TT driver is recommended to use with single throat S150 horn.&nb...
|
Romy, The bass horn project is still going. I have re-arrange the position of the bass horn. Check out http://www.goto-unit.com for most recent pictures. I finally received the GOTO SG38WNS 15" woofer and GOTO SG188S tweeter this week. My next step i...

FYI - for all,The GOTO is a very small company located in Japan that has devoted the whole 3 generations of GOTO family to produce only one product line - the GOTO speaker driver. The annual production capacity is 240 driver units which me...
|
Romy,
I am off to Taiwan tomorrow but will ask the question by email. I have not heard that kind of custom diaphragm ever available from GOTO on SG146LD4 driver. I know the 15" woofer can be request with different stiffness of the cone.&...
|
Hi Romy,
I spoke to Mr. GOTO about your question today and he told me that the reasonance of SG145LD4 is at 24Hz. If customer want to build a 20Hz, he will recommend to use at least 2 driver per channel but best to use 4 driver per c...

Hi All,This is Ming Su and I am the US distributor for GOTO and J.C. Verdier. I thought that I will share with you about my new midbass horn. As you know by now, Jeffrey Jackson from http://experiencemusic.net/ help me on this project.&nb...
