Anyhow, it is interesting how the new 25 users that get those Studio 8M will use them. I wish something “new” would derive from all of it…[/quote]Speaking only for myself, I am planning to use the Fane 8M in a pair of 11...

Hello,I have received a couple of requests which I have replied to but these came through 'diyaudio,' as there seems to be no email address in my profile here. I always thought it was there, and in any case just updated it but I imagine it might take...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do not exactly comfortable with oxric’s preoccupation with “parts”...There is nothing wrong with the selection of the parts that I provided; in fact I personal feel that they were the right parts at that time. So, with th...

Hi,Every so often, someone contacts me and asks for some information about my plans (presently on hold) to build Melquiades Full-Range or D-Set, and whether I have a list of parts etc. My experience of trying to find a builder for Melquiades has not ...

Romy,Very briefly. I am wasting my time writing this response, and probably yours as well, but let me again, as you say, bite the bait and respond anyway.[quote user="Romy the Cat"]

BTW, I was not kidding about the dual-concentric 8” Fane. They did make a version of Studio 8M with a tweeter in the middle. I have it sitting in my driver storage…Another BTW: the tractrix curve was not introduced by Br...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I am glad that Fane “now found … that they have sufficient old stock of the 8 ohms or 16 ohms voice coils to”. Such a phenomenal discovery of the British archeologists. Can you ship them here in US, they can help us to fin...

Hello everyone,I have excellent news from Fane. After checking their old stock, they have now found and have confirmed that they have sufficient old stock of the 8 ohms or 16 ohms voice coils to offer everyone ordering a choice of 8 or 16 ohms.Qu...

Yes, I did not realize that the price of £225 is for a PAIR; usually price is given per driver. I guess the £225 per pair is not and of the world but I still insist to pay 65 cents per 1 Euro as it use to do… In past I n...

Romy,I am truly sorry about the scarcity of sundried tomato bagels in Boston. Without being an expert in culinary matters, if it can be produced by the mere press of a button, maybe they were not that great after all and nothing is missed from not se...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
There is absolutely nothing in Fane 8M specifications that is responsible for the diver sound. So, what is the purpose to ask about the new specifications?One might think that someone can use “specifications” as an assu...

Jorge,I would hope that the specifications of the Fane 8M drivers would not depart from the specifications of the old 8Ms that you have helpfully attached here. I just sent the pdf file to your email directly, not having seen that you had posted it h...

I have a couple of queries relating to the transition from the mouth of the S2 driver to a horn generally, and to a 400Hz or 250Hz horn specifically. The profile calculator that I use for tractrix horn (horncalc) does not take into account the de...

As I mentioned above, I talked to the manager of Fane International and asked for further assurances in writing that these new drivers would use exactly the same parts as the vintage drivers. I am quoting from the email, and I hope this will provide...
