Retrofunk,Interesting observations. With regard to the speed variations with the flywheel, I have to wonder about your motor. I don't recognize particular unit. Do you have the original RY-5500 motor that came with the RX-5000? The RY-5500 has a buil...

[quote user="Paul S"]If you can do it, try isolating both cases/chasses from your "ground plane(s)". Use one inclusive "ground plane" for both the PS and the gain/RIAA sections, and ground this "ground plane" to the house "neutral" wire. Do NOT conne...

Thanks for your comments Romy.
You should like this bit of news... I forgot to mention, these will be round-section horns...
And yes, they will be very heavy... Made from a metal armature and very thick, natural (hemp) fiber-reinforced, plaster...

The top 3 are to scale model of the throat, mouth and length you posted above without the horn profile.the bottom image is the equivalent flat pattern.If you were to cut the pattern out of material and sow the sides together, add a ci...

Hello,"I am not sure what you are asking about, or what exactly you are promoting, but I do not agree with lightweight, square-section horns, because I have never heard one that worked,"i promoting nothing ,i gave only an info about a world novelty,y...

[quote user="morespeakers2"] I am not against trying the S2 in the future but I was just curious about the very small details to cause compression drivers make their different sounds before running out and trying any more drivers. I upset a few speak...

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 ...

Continuing to harass the readers of my site and myself with the good news about the performance of my SA8535 driver I would like to post a very educational article about the subject. As I told before, being familiar with sound of ribbons then never i...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"] I have the 515-Gs If I remember correctly, and I am trying to find suggestions on what is proper horn-loaded cabinet still. And I agree my tannoy golds so far have worked best with early 70's mcintosh 22...

Thanks Romy, Paul, and Ronnie for the comments and encouragement :
Here are some responses :
1) Rubber gaskets :
Maybe it is not so important to have an “air-tight” seal (???). The rubber gaskets are there to seal the cover to the rear chamber...

This is the text that John posted a few years back at Triode Mafia. John allowed me to post it here warning that he have learned more about tapped horn since then and hat his opinion might have changed since then. -- *****************************...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Rakesh,Two things I see that may or may not turn out to be an issue:1) The relatively narrow stance of the front wheels; depending on how heavily you load the top of the frame, stability could be a bit on the limit when mo...

[quote user="hagtech"] Maybe you can do the same for the bleeder resistors and wiring bundles? That is, once you are sure it is operational. Wires can be like guitar strings. [/quote]

There is no "one tube DHT amp." There are only amps with gain in one box or two boxes.
Your 6E5P tube is not so special. People have been making WE437 spud amps since the 1960s. There is a class of amps that use a high-gm tube driver and a DHT out...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]This morning I was listening Messiaen’s Tarantella-Symphony powering system from the bare AC lines. It was far from the sound I would like to have and I decided one more time to insult myself with PP2000. This time I decide...

Coops, I less care about the attacks on me, I know that I am a pH-indicator of Moronity among audio freaks. So, if some specific idiots out there are not happy about me then… it is good for me. The higher we climb in mountains the stronger wind and l...

Interesting, but I have to say that does sound a bit
problematic in several ways. For one, I’m guessing you meant to say “one mm”, or
even “one quarter of an inch”, but not “one inch”. One inch is quite a soup
bowl! For another, anti-skating f...
