The “best midrange comes from compression drivers”. I see somebody like Haralanov would be very much opposed to this comment. The irony is that I would be opposed as well to this comment. I would say that the best midrange at over 107dB sensitiv...

Here is another subject that many people would not understand, however some of the advanced Vitavox S2 user will be able to follow me.
The MF compression drivers hat go all the way to 12K-13K region all have own idiosyncratic way to present ow...

Romy, when you mention "dynamic sinking" of ribbons are you speaking of sub-8k Hz use of powerful ribbons like the Water Drop compared to 109 dB efficient compression drivers, or do you notice this dynamic sinking no matter how high you cross ov...

When you get a horn that will work i will trade for a couple weeks!I don't think wide band drivers are the ideal way to do things but the most cost effective way to injoy good sound i would like to make another pair to crossover from 3k to 10k.some...

[quote user="el`Ol"] Hello Romy, have you searched for explainations for these observations? Are there others who made the same observations and tried to explain them? Does the damping factor play a role?From my limited experience I can say that ...

A six year ago or so when I played with different compression drivers I bought a pair of Dukane 5A540 and at that time I was not able to find any information about them. Nowadays I was pointed out that an eBay sealer “ bayleafs” actions a pair of Duk...

Back in end of 90s, we read articles by Thomas Dunker, Joe Roberts, Bruce Edgar, and many others (some of them were designers and some of them just publicists) who were trying to persuade that horns are some kind of advantageous topology and that...

Yes, Rulit does try to push envelop of something. He does exiting projects but I do not know how all of it manifests itself in actual results. I said that he pushes the “envelop of something” as I do not know what this “something” is. I never h...

Well, it is certainly not our objectives to define were one or another driver, in this case TADs, would punch up in regards to other drivers. I presume that any driver if a sufficient amount of time, effort and love invested might blossom with differ...

[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...

[quote user="Saturntube"] Anyone has some sort of comparison between compression drivers against cone (dynamic) drivers in a this huge mid bass horns, or even upper bass horns. All I heard are this guys from Germany with the out of reach expe...

I would like to make a few comments about the entire idea of those expensive Japanese compression drivers: GOTO, ALE and alike. I have voiced the near-similar outlook about the irrational exuberance that some audio people express about electromagnet ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I will slowly upload, as time permits to write them, different posts on the subject of Ultimate MF Compression Driver. [/quote]This will be a bit controversial subject among the compression drivers users but it is only ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] A few years back I wrote somewhere that I “developed” a semi-mathematical formula according to which an acoustic system’s result might be absolutely objectively weighed up. I did not go very far with advisement of this eq...

I also disagree. You circumvent the whole theory if compression drivers. The whole point in a compression driver is that anything in back chamber is irrelevant. Haralanov, all that you need to do is to make your own experiments, the practical exper...

[quote user="el`Ol"]I think they could could make the sound more pleasant with an overkill of second harmonic distortion. But for people who prefer that kind of sound a relax-horn like Anima would be better anyway. No real solution. Maybe they should...

Hi, Tim. This is difficult question, and it is difficult in it’s abstractivnes. I really do not understand, or understand but refuse to acknowledge the validity of the word “respectable”. How valid for YOU would be a “reputation” of this driver if it...

Dominik, in terms of technology advancement, it seems their new driver is better than their other models. But despite this, I’m not sure their transducer engineer knows how to make the drivers to be valuable in terms of sound/tone. I’m saying that n...

[quote user="decoud"] If a magnetic field is static, who cares how it is created? Isn't the main potential advantage of electromagnets one that no one has explored at all - the possibility of modulating the field strength in direct response to the au...

[quote user="be"]Both the Fane and the Goto where used as compression drivers, so there where no principal differences of use. [/quote]
Wow, who made such experiment? Bring this person to my forum, it would be interesting to interview him! I still d...

At first I plan to power the thing SET, with a known, existing amp (a triode wired EL84) which I've already built and know the Sound. It is not bad, but a little "warm" sounding (second harmonics, and is low powered for low frequenci...

At this point I think that the main advantage of efficient speakers is that they represent the best chance for a sort linearity that to my knowledge can't be gotten any other way. It seems like inefficient drivers simply do not sound the s...

Oliver,
It might be anything including electricity. Generally compression drivers are very much vulnerable to the electricity problems, muck more than convectional drivers. Let pretend that distortions in powers lines are responsible for worsening o...

[quote user="Johan Dreyer"] I had a SG370 mid apart only yesterday.I should have taken a photograph. I have also seen the inside of the tweeter. They are very similar, so I have no reason to suppose the low mid SG 505 will be much different. I'll try...

Of cause it shall be mentioned in the context of thin there that there is always the ALE Acoustic solution. The Japanese ALE Acoustic make two midbass drivers: P1260 and P160.
