Hi Romy:Does it matter whether it is Phlogopite or muscovite mica sheets? There is a company here in the Uk that has only the muscovite in stock, thickness being 0.2mm (and upwards). You can find them here.http://www.elelco.co.uk/mica-sheets.phpRegar...

Hi Romy:After reading your slightly less than flattering portrait of Bob Rapoport, marketing director of PurePower, I felt compelled to have a look into the guy's background. This is so completely priceless! If you follow the link below to the guy's ...

A few words before I lay down the facts. Over the last week I got a number of signals from PurePower that I shall not defame their products. Their marketing director Bob Rapoport – a certifiable idiots – informed me that...

Romy:You may in the meantime build your own battery pack to increase the playtime you get from batteries. When I last spoke to PurePower (I placed an order for a PP2000 in another life and then cancelled the order), I asked whether they would pro...

Hi Jessie:It is indeed a (t)horny dilemna whether to get rid of the midbass horns now, with a view to starting all over again and customise the new horns for your eventual new home in Detroit or ship them at unfortunately what will be a very substant...

Well Romy:The format is what it is. And the idea is to encourage people to join in, share experiences, maybe be festive at this time of year...I am not here to fly to the defense of the organisers of the festival although I certainly find it interest...

Romy:I think you may find the link and the shoot-out, of limited value as they are, of interest. The S2 did not fare well at all, not surprising really, given its idiosyncrasies and how difficult it is to get anything remotely acceptable out of it. h...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I woke up and thinking about the horn problem with fresh head I am thinking what did wrong. I did not measure the frequency response of the horn – I did not see a need for it – the sound of the thing is way beyond where it ...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]I didn't read the entire thread, but enough to get the gist...This guy admits he's tone deaf, but he's likely also a good fabricator, is not afraid of large-scale work and seems willing to listen. Doesn't that make him a p...

Mr Edwards (I think that's your name):I find the issue you raise, rather inadvertently, a very interesting one. As a matter of habit, I come across a lot of people, a bit like yourself, who know absolutely nothing about audio, and in fact are dea...

OK, now I am happier as I did my duty and the back chambers are ready to be attached to the horns and to be lifted up. Yesterday I spent 5 hours trying to build the back chamber displacement that Jessie and my carpenter ...

Romy:I just suddenly realised that by 'heal' you probably meant 'hill'. For a moment I thought it was some strange geographical feature that I had not come across. RegardsRakesh...
|

Romy:My pleasure.The actual angle of elevation required to clear the summit of the heal is 1.182 degrees (i.e tan inv 709(949-240)/34360(36360-2000)). Using similar triangles (h/2000=709/34360) or simple trig gives an overall antenna height of 198.73...
|
|
Well Romy:A quick calculation shows that the angle of elevation is 1.24310 degrees (i.e tan inv of (949-160)/36360). At a horizontal distance of 2000ft from the antenna, this angle of elevation results in an overall height above sea level of 203ft (i...

Romy:I hope you go ahead with your project of installing the horns in your attic as you are probably the only person who might pull it off, but if my opinion was solicited, I think you would be very ill-advised to do so. Firstly, the costs involved a...
