Hmmm - the whole LCR thing, I don't like the idea. I'll admit to having no experience of it, but in engineering terms, it just gives you a constant impedance filter. The EQ is still done by caps essentially, far as I can tell. I see the wh...

Hi,this is my first post. This forum seems to be the hotbed for Goto discussion of some sort but there is barely any data but only a swamp of assumptions. So I bought  a pair of SG-370DX drivers with S600 horns and measured them. Here's the frequency...

IMO, any sonic benefits from running Lowthers stock are totally swamped by excessive, ragged response that is generally (but not steadily...) rising - a lot - toward HF.  There have been many ideas for "taming the Lowther", and here is another one, b...
