I’m new to this outstanding website and I found it has really educational value and antimoronizating information :)
I’m still in the world of direct radiators and I’m looking for the ultimate midbass channel solution. At this time it’s still impossi...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Without mentioning the reasons here are a few pointers:
1) There is no proper tone 2) Horizontal imaging is less refined then I would like it to be. 3) Sound is not wet enough. 4) At high volume...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, I took the anti-RIAA signal converted and run CD player into the phonostage. The RIAA curve was fine and the effect of the HF volume and frequency-depended quantization did not expose itself. So, it looks like the p...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I got the new BSO 88/24 files them briefly listened a few fragments. Generally I do like them and they are nothing like the 320kbps multi-channel WMA that BSO marketed before. My fear that the files might have issues with t...

Yes, the enclosure something like this, thanks for tip, miab, but it opens a door for desire more. A good box with fanless operation, 1920 x 1200 pixels touch-screen, 6 hard-drives, remoter control, $650 price tag is...

Possible, with all my conversation about Mantis I do not remember I ever made any guess or assumption how it might sound. In horns, I feel I am qualified to make sometimes very bold assessments with very high prece...

Brian,
I sourced the air caps from here:

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]If I succeed to make my midbass horn at attic then I will face another problem that I do not know how to address at this point. The horns will be powered from Melquiades bass channels – it means it will use a good 70 feet s...

I pretty much know what I need to do – I need to go for shaper filter built in my power amp. The second order I have no is too impactful to midbass, so I need to do for 2th order or perhaps for 4th and try to integrate it. Whatever it will be I thin...

When you say it was not very high end...but that you found the sound very good....doesn't that mean you should redefine the term high end?
Also. Why can't the purchase of a $20k speaker in itself not be regarded as audio ambition?

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Make an experiment, and I will simplify the case quite assertively. Take a typical compression driver, cross it at 800Hz, second order and load it into a proper contemporary horn (Tratrix or JMLC) of 300Hz. Listen that hor...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]1) High electrostatic or whatever other reason make the cartridge very prone to collect dust.
2) Exceedingly hard-reading with slightly overly prominent leading-edges of the phases. This demands VERY high quality...
