[quote user="Romy the Cat"]It is possible to throw fantastic imaging presentation by using direct radiator but did you pay attention that many playbacks do not do it? What does it mean? It means that an ability of playback to make imaging interning i...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] However, do not use word “brake” as it if from the words of mass-centric drivers. Horns are not about mass and exertion but about velocity and consequential pressure, so in horns there are no brakes but rather damping over...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The re-charged cap works fine but changing the cap polarity by re-recharging is while it handles the signal is not a very good idea in my view. All that dialectic in the cap needs to be re-polarized – it sound too unattract...

Hi Stefano,why don't you kindly invite Mr. Be Yamamura to join this forum? Anyway, I want to add another simple question to the list: Did he tried another channel's arrangement (for example tweeter positioned below midrange channel or some other conf...

Romy, as you can see, I have never wrote that these parasitic sounds depend ONLY on the quality of the drivers. It is quite obvious they depend on many many many other things (practically everything) as for example bad microphones, bad microphone cab...

It was some 16-17 years ago, a beautiful sunny morning in April, when I was jogging in the local forest. Suddenly out of nowhere massive dark clouds covered the sky and in just a few minutes it began to rain heavily. Then the “Voices of spring” walt...

Romy, it was a good comment.[quote user="Romy the Cat"]It is interesting that if you have uninformed person with restricted listening intelligence (I mean playback of cause) then you can have a “perfect sound” (means the problem with sound do not exc...

[quote user="rowuk"]I would be interested in an explanation why the topology for HF and UHF must be the same. I do not agree with this premise especially in 4 or 5 way systems where primarily the last octave only is demanded. [/quote] Rowuk, nobody w...

Romy, it is of course "yes and no" situation. I thought it will be understood by presumption and it doesn’t need to be mentioned at all (but since it is Audio for Dummies section – it seems it needs to be mentioned :-) ). So - Yes - if it is done rig...

Yes, Paul, you are right that it has to be pointed that the frequency extension, by itself, does not guarantee anything (but that’s why I posted the thread in Audio For Dummies section :-) ). OK, now let’s see how the tweeters should be used (in cont...

Yes, I know it is not correct to make any generalizations and it all depends upon the acoustic environment, where the horn is being placed and the influence of the other channels, so my original question was in context of listening to the upperbass h...

I think it is very interesting subject and I’m looking for first hand opinions by people, using properly sounding upper bass horns in their listening rooms. I’m not interested in theoretical opinions – only by opinions, coming from personal listening...

I just noticed the empty space at the location where your midbass horns are/were positioned. Am I blind or are they missing?Edit: I must be very stupid - the photo is probably taken before they were installed... :-))...

Dominik, in terms of technology advancement, it seems their new driver is better than their other models. But despite this, I’m not sure their transducer engineer knows how to make the drivers to be valuable in terms of sound/tone. I’m saying that n...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwb9OCivhtgUpon looking the video I realized that as camera moves the sound does not changes, so the sound was not recorded “live” with microphone but was overlaid by post-production. [/quote]...

Cat, if you
at least for a moment override your ego, you will eventually start to see some
things that are beyond the curtains (of your own ego). I don’t care if you
treat your horns as mechanical filters or not, because it is completely irrelevan...
