[quote user="skushino"]My desire is to use a pair of bass horns for each channel, both vertically oriented, one each exhausting to the floor and the ceiling. I have an idea that spatial presentation will gain a big boost with both up and down firing...

[quote user="skushino"] Being new to subs, isn't there an obvious danger of over loading this little room with too much bass energy? [/quote]Where did you get this bogus notion? What does it mean: “loading this little room with too much bass energy”....

Paragon, what is your problem?
In this thread I do not see anybody advocate any specific ways and no one set any “new path for others to follow”. If you spend time reading this site (and if you are an “avid believer of horn speakers throughou...

[quote user="skushino"] Edgarhorns weren't an obvious choice. Many horns never worked for me. The Avantgardes left me cold. So did the single-driver crowd (I just don't get it....), Altec VOTs, PA systems, etc. But there were some systems th...

[quote user="skushino"]I'm not a headphone guy, and this is the first time I heard about hardware or software to replicate the acoustics of the great symphony halls. Question - do you have direct personal experience with these devices? What are the...

Scott, you see, this is the problem. You do not talk about the problems “as is”. All what I was asking was the acknowledgment/recognition/identification without context of loudspeakers. Your listening/assessment awareness is completely grounded to th...

Skushino, I'm afraid I posted that last when I was distracted. I admit I did not think twice about the MKP. I've only seen that style in fairly small values. What is the MKP's value, and why do you think it's "the" coupler, while the 'Cubes are else?...

Hi Skushino, hope you dont mind me jumping on to your old thread, but I can upon it while looking for ideas re chamber volume and compression ratios for the same Faital driver into a 160hz Azurahorn. Could I ask how you were using yours? Ta,K.S...

[quote user="skushino"] The sub arrived before the main speakers, so I practiced integration with my existing speakers. They are rated full range to 20Hz, so I expected little change in performance. Instead, what I noticed with the additi...

|
Skushino, from what you say I presume you use two pair of ML2, right? Yes, what you say is correct but if I were you then I would not introduce an addition caps to signal path. In my view the best scenario for high path would be to minimize the coupl...

[quote user="skushino"]… when I opened up the volume, the piano clearly resonates with the playback. [/quote]It is exactly what I worry. When I play my Bruckner I use high volume and it pressurizes my room very high. So, I think it might pick some ex...

Hi Skushino,1) In your post above regarding certain(?) of Bruce's products, can you please identify *what* crossover parts you received or heard (in context of given system) which you feel are "low quality" ..?2) Which model & ...

Skushino, Thanks for pointing it out. Unfortunately with all my desire to understand what CH Audio did turn to fiasco and I absolutely do not understand this LF section. Is it a duplex of 515 drivers with one loaded in this front shallow front horn a...

|
Skushino, I found the same thing, TH can only go so high before they start sounding :funny, of course due to the principle involved, if you want to raise the response further from the design the same Tapped Horn begins to work against itself. So one...
|
|
Skushino. Yes TH is designed to play 2 octaves and no more, this derives from the design which actually uses a labrynth, in the shape of a horn, to return (and amplify) the back wave of the driver to the front and add its strenght to the output, no...

[quote user="skushino"]Have you considered the opportunity of raising your upper bass HP crossover? How high do you plan to use your mid bass horns? If your mid bass is comfortable playing up to 280hz (or whatever the right freq is), you can use yo...
