Vasyachkin,
I have different view about “modifying products” as any product is always implying something very generic but I have my own needs. Probably not “modifying” but adopting would be better but it is not the subject in here.
If you read my s...

It looks like Cessaro roll out tier Beta system to show. I still wait the Gamma but it is not Alfa anymore. I have no idea how it sounded in Munich. Setup-wise the installation looks like was made very uninformed but I am sure it made good pictur...

[quote user="Jim Smith"]You said, "I think the Cessaro folks shell recognize you as a quite valuable asset to explore US market."I'm curious as to what grounds you have for making such a statement. I've never had a single contact from them, ten...

There was some kind of hi-fi show in Gernany and it looks like Cessaro showed off a new version of Gamma. They look like change the frame. I really do not like what they look now. They look heavier with new frame and much less elegant. They looks lik...

I did not see, thanks for pointing it out. As I said before Cessaro is
probably the most sensible company who makes horn loaded loudspeakers today and
I have comment on this Gamma model. This is a smaller version of Cessaro with new bass horn. It i...

[quote user="coops"]Romy just a quick post, after the Munich show I had the oppurtunity to spend a few hours listening to Ralph Krebs home system, the Cessaro Gamma's, super sound, the antithesis of almost everything I heard at the MOC, regards Keith...

Hello,Can you give me some ideas for a good room? Also, audio related ideas are always welcome too.The initial plan is a room with 5m H x 10m W x 14m D (about 16,5ft H x 33ft W x 46ft D). Solid floor, probably porcelain tile (chess floor style), and ...

It is very easy to figure out acoustically. Feed the drivers and their crossover with a reference tone of fixed amplitude and fixed frequency, roughly in the middle of crossover point. Disconnect one of the drivers and measure the acoustic pressure e...

Hi Romy, I recently heard the smallest Cessaro and while I felt that the bass was not adequate for long term satisfaction it was also not a total disaster. From the midbass on up; however, the speaker is simply superb and one of the very best h...

Hi Romy Indeed you sound a little racist, but i think we all have our prejudice. Funny enough, i didnt recognize nor cared, spotted the horn with my eyes, went in and listened.Now, read this carefully: I listened to the system with closed eyes, for ...

Oliver,
It is hard to understand or describe what might be with Cessaro in Munich. Sometimes even if you are there it is hard to guess what is wrong. To debug Sound you need to go action and to observe how this particular installation reacts t...

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...

jd, I cannot see any of PDF files, probably my current networks kills them.
I do not know the AK150 drivers. I know AK157, AK151 and K15/40. If they have significantly lower free-air resonance, at 30-35Hz then I am not sure that they would be ...

[quote user="hagtech"]Romy, I don't know what it is, but something bothers me about the way the upper horn hangs. All other drivers are supported from bottom, that one from the top. This is just gut, but it doesn't seem right to me. ...

Romy Hi, I didn't particularly set out to 'demean' Avantgarde, they have a good business model, I don't believe it is a secret that they modify conventional drivers, I simply mean that the constituent parts of a Cessaro horn , add up to a far hi...

[quote user="Serge"] The SIlbatone room was very large. They played an Edith Piaf record on a mono WE16B (or A, not sure). They played it very loud which I don't like, ever. I felt the system was made to show dynamics and it did it. The dynamic r...
