[quote user="Jeffrey Jackson"] so, my straight horns... I like them very much.. I built mine similar in style to what Greg B linked, but obviously much smaller.. mine are just under eight feet long (length of a sheet of plywood) and have a mouth roug...

This is a guy from Japan and he made his 4 ways GOTO drivers. What I like that he made midbass horns with smaller throat then Johan Dreyer. This Japanise guy has tall room and he made his horns to have smaller throat and to have a curve up – that is ...

[quote user="twogoodears"]Hi Keith and congratulations for your new babies... I'm truly jealous of your room size.
Me too, as I previously wrote, assembled a VERY similar rig, vastly inferior to you welded supports, any, using the same approach: S-1...

Paul,
Ok, I would agree with this. The power handling is the factor that I forgot to mention. The Japanese home drivers are rated for a few watts vs. the pro driver are rated for hundreds watts. BTW, some of older pro drivers (like my Vitavox) wer...

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...

Ok; there's a mis-print somewhere, or a manufacturing change... The web site linked listed SG-370 as 23,000 gauss, and SG-370DX as 24,000 gauss. The goto brochure lists SG-370 as 24,000 gauss. And was discussed yesterday w/ someone, one doesn't re...

Hi Romy, I ended up using a TAD 1101h 11 inch driver, 97db, 38fs, and is what I believe a stronger cone than the Goto 8 inch. The DIY mid bass horn is a 1/2 space 53hz hyperbolic horn with 5in x 5in square throat. Length is about 8'6", height of mout...

[quote user="MINGSU"]I think you pointed out correctly. GOTO sell speaker driver and not a system - because it is impossible to pre-config a multi-horn system to fit every buyer's room and sound taste.As a business, I offer the full service of insta...

I hate Italians. They do the best women in the world; they have one of the best cuisines in the world; they use one of the best languages in the world but they still where shamelessly eliminated in the first round of the 2010 World Cup. Assholes!...

[quote user="twogoodears"] I agree with Mingsu questions about "what" physical area must be aligned, as every inch +/- gives sometimes different results... [/quote] Come on Stefano, you do not align the “physical area”. You guys are so preocupated wi...

Ming,
thank you very much for resonance information, it explains a lot about the SG145LD4’s suspension. Still, my primary interest was not how folks out there build 20Hz of 24Hz horns but about ability to use the SG145LD4 properly for smaller horns...

Last time we wrote you thought I should focus less on tweeters and more on midbass.I am not done yet, but I have found a very nice midbass solution. Somewhat unorthodox, maybe.I have come to love police sirens! Without having A/B compared it to a pai...

We understand that Charlus’ selection of drivers are not a selection yet but some kind of very preliminary idea of the drivers that he feels like he like. I said “he feels like he like” not accidently. I do not think Charlus, or anybody else in h...

Well, I just placed an order on the 505TT and S150 horn last week... I came across this site after placing my order and now I'm worried about the mismatch of driver/horn. It seems like I'll have to either change the horn or the back chamber. Romy, is...

Wow, THAT IS BOLD!!!! The 45Hz how from 7” throat – that is very-very cool and very positively-obnoxious.

I would like to add to my previous posts that the situation I described above made virtually imposable to correlate experiences of different people have with different drivers. If you for instance use your JBL driver and I use my TOA driver for the s...

Actually you might get some TS parameters for Gotos if you find right
people to ask. I do not have them but I am sure there is somebody out there
who do. The problem is that those parameters are very much irrel...

Well, whatever you do with your loudspeakers of with you whole playback system is kind of irrelevant if your drivers are not right. In my view the drivers are the very much heart of playback but in case of High-Efficiency and particularly horn-loaded...

A few months ago a reader of my site contacted me and informed about that he found a very interesting driver, that his is using and he is very excited about it. The driver is JBL 2490.

[quote user="Kcct82"]Thanks Romy, your comment above cleared some of the questions I had regarding 50/60hz midbass horns.
I found some info on the driver after digging through Japanese sites. I don't know if these info will help interpret with...

I ask Jeffery about crossovers... Yes, the GOTO sub comes with a steep slope. The crossovers Jeffery built (all the horns) are 1st order, and cross-over points fine tuned by ear.
The “what to do different or the same” question was...

Good morning Xandg, i thought the same and asked, so i got forced to knock and touch, very heavy & firm. As I wrote, the gravel-filled cavity at the mouth seems to make a difference. Anthony, thats the rooms yes :) It looks redicolous on the pi...
