Yes, Roman: the two stages design is having the gain you correctly pointed-out.Sure would have paid - and it was discussed, as well, during pre-building weeks - to go for an higher gain design, BUT I feel more confortable in going ahead to play with ...

... while Manolis will find the words to reply to Roman's questions, let me post a pix of the prototype I listened to at Manolis' place, last spring...As you see, the design showed at Athens' show, last weekend, is QUITE different...I trust Manolis w...

I always loved this cocooning chair... also a long time fave - almost a must - among Far Eastern audiophiles.As a plus, lacking a true head support, the ears do not have a back leather surface which - possibly - blur the listening. ...

Twogoodears, occasionally posting at this site also have mentioned it in his blog: http://twogoodears.blogspot.com/2009/04/wjaas-cartridges-survey-part-4-mr-ks.htmlbut I do not know what the Twogoodears reference points ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Stefano, it is funny that you have mentioned the “an old, little cinema in a small town”. I do not know if you did it unintentionally or you meant as some kind of sarcastic self-deprecated joke. What I mean is that the init...

... this is the mid-low horn showed mounted on the bike... missing from this pix - because time-aligned and well in phase, but out of sight - were other bikes like this driven by the sons and daughter of Goto the Elder... mid-high and high bike/drive...

Vaseline;-) is easily wiped off...My speculating request was concerned to the idea of a bent bass horn, a mid-bass and other ways "almost" (phisically) in-phase... apparently so, as it's only moved at the back... not really aligned - i.e. how can som...

... in Bologna, Italy I previously quoted... a 5 ways system using also the bass-horn and driver, ALL "Super" series... a tycoon system, price-wise...http://twogoodears.blogspot.com/2009/10/wjaas-best-of-crop-ale-acoustic.htmlRoman: would you please ...

Unfortunately there was no further explanation, analyses, or a desire to look deeper (as usually on internet audio). [/quote]Glad you enjoyed the "Philosophy" section by Imai-san... some of his old writings deeply influe...

Hi Roman...Yes, I liked it, as I liked Audio Tekne's (always based on A.L.E. drivers, by chance...), but because I "felt" - more than hearing - the superb quality of emission, the smoothness and naturality of the music when passing through these dri...

Roman:
since I came to GSC, I became more and more careful (at least trying) in proper choosing words, due to the need of expressing myself in a language which isn't my own, some finesse and subtleties get lost, so further explanation or underl...

Roman, no need to explain... I already got the irony in your list (reading instructions...) But, most of all, I don't want to distract you from more interesting topics and speculations......

Unfortunately I cannot reply to your question, Roman, as I purchased from herr Von Langa a N.O.S. pair of Altec 416-8B 15" woofers.BTW: while in Berlin, last May, Frank Schroeder performed an interesting, provoking "blind-test" using '50s and '60 Tel...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
The point that am trying to make is that the subject of the “home use“ driver vs. the “pro use drivers” is a bit complicated and the thing are not so clear as you, Stefano, is trying to present it to yourself.[/quote]Tha...

Herr Wolf von Langa is a gentleman from Southern Germany (look at the link here http://twogoodears.blogspot.com/2009/03/great-site-from-germany-field-coils.html).He and his sister are dealing in modding vintage speakers, speakers woodworking and vint...

JD's post contains several interesting tips and hints: talking of walls and floors is important like and possibly more than talking about a pleasant, cocooning space where to find themselves in music and reading and relaxed chatting with friends and ...

I agree the "period" closing needs more words, Roman.The P.A. horns/drivers were mounted in stadiums, convention centers, maxonic halls, cinemas, theaters, everywhere was needed a broad music or speech dispersion, trouble free operation and high S.P....

If time (Endo-san and mine...) will allow, I should also visit Endo Labs of ALE fame... sure I'll have a listen to a 4 ways system in Tokyo area with bass driver and concrete horn.Re. "tilted high frequencies"... no, Roman, it's not me experiencing s...

... my only experience with newer, expensive Berillium diaphragm Goto drivers, has been a mix between "Wow, I'm listening to a +35K euros speakers system" and... "Gosh, music do not sound this way"... this of course was due to some crossovers tuning ...

Hi Roman!So, an SG-37FRP finally dropped on yr. laps;-) - glad it happened: not because you're now part of an Olympus-like lobby, but because you'll be able to judge with yr. own ears, much, MUCH better than theorically speculating on this or that......

Yes... Jacqueline Du Prè really "is" Elgar's Op. 85 Cello Concert... just listened to "Allegro Molto" and now enjoying "Adagio"... she's just right, raw and passionate and free and easy.I was thinking few minutes ago: isn't something so... so... GREA...

I'm very fond of Ernest Bloch's "Schelomo - (Hebraic Rhapsody for Violoncello Solo and Full Orchestra)", followed on the same DECCA SXL 6440 disc and always by Bloch, by "Voice in the Wilderness (Symphonic Poem for Orchestra with Violoncello Obbligat...
