That's a possibility. Romy, what about the classic LS3/5a design? Small monitor. Sealed box. jh...

Maybe no other hi-fi group has thought more about the cabinet's contribution to sound than the single-driver crowd. Many of them like the "immediacy", "integrity" and "purity" of the single driver sound so much that they endlessly hu...

hi romy, thanks for invite and one of these days I will come by with the guigal cote rotie, st. marcelin cheese and a few cigars thatwe can still buy legally. The non-horn idea was for a second system in a very large room and i want a store bought s...

SamFrom your listings perhaps you do not mind if certain qualities of the speakers themselves come to the fore, as long as you get other things you want?I think the Verity Parsifals do need the Encore (is that it?) bass units, and you'd certainl...

Hello Paul,I'm going to check if I can easely find a way to listen to the Alon lotus SE and the harbeth....I have heard the parsifal ovation with bass unit, -for me- they have no dynamics, very difficult to manage and at lower volume they are a shame...

Maybe we should just start by trying to think of a viable way to get down to 20 Hz in a reasonably sized enclosure driven by an SET that must also drive the rest of the system. This was always the sticker for me, and this was a major ...

Thanks for input! This is the kind of information I am looking for. My feeling is one driver can't do it all. But audio reviews say this Cube Audio driver is revolutionary and finally we can have it all. As it meets the criteria of no crossover to sc...

"SO i read somewhere on the net if we have to mix ss and tube the combination should be tube pre----ss amp and NOT ss pre ------tube amp."Please don't take offense, but this is why I say what I say. No matter how smart you are or how long you've been...

Yes, the main system often seems to require too much of an "investment" to make using it worthwhile, or even realistic.I confess I have let my mind wander in this direction:http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=a5+audioengine&tag=googhydr...

Consigned to the root cellar? In such a small space, "cranking it up" is a relative term, but I think this could be more interesting than headphones. Anyway, there's no substitute for trial and error. I would say, basically, use a good front end a...

Every musician/composer I know who has heard the Harbeth Monitor 40s has liked them, for whataever this is worth. They aren't cheap and they are not efficient, but they are pitched well within their limits and they provide enough deta...

OK, Romy gave me an oppotunity to hear the system with the injection channel, so here's what I heard.The injection channel affects the presentation in a minor and in a very major way. Minor in context of already well accomplished Melquiades/Mac...

Romy,Thank you. Now that you mention it, perhaps 85% of the stateroom in question was indeed beneath the waterline, meaning that the potential for unruly resonances was perhaps less than I had at first assumed. The front and rear walls of the room we...

I am not "working backwards" from a tweeter. I presently use Harbeth M40.1s, but having recently heard the Living Voice Vox Olympian and an Audio Tekne horn implementation of Ale Acoustics drivers, the experiences opened up new vistas of what is poss...

Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an extended listening session with the Living Voice Vox Olympian outside of a show environment. Since said listening session took place upon a boat – moreover, a wooden-bodied boat – under what can only be sai...

Romy,It is indeed an interesting subject; I am instinctively drawn to it due to the fact that the majority of orchestral instruments - the majority of my listening is orchestral/chamber/classical soloists - produce their own sound through the resonan...

It's Art Dudley's turn, now:

[quote user="decoud"]Perhaps you should use the cathedral configuration to make a synergy horn of the entire ceiling: tweeter at the apex, mf a little further down each wall, and bass at the base. Were it steeper it could actually work. [/quote]
