Someone at AA’ sewers posted his measurements of Edgarhorn system, supplemented with a subwoofer and Fostex Tweeter. I do not know the poster personally, most likely he is another AA’s advice seeker – means another idiot - and therefore it is ha...

This is the idea that I like. It looks like it is a Slovakian company and this amps is two stage with a reasonable driver and it looks like they make their own 2A3.

Since my Fostex saga went deep South I was scratching my head wondering what else I would like to do considering the I would like to do as less as possible. Well, talking about to do as less as possible – I like the sound of my shitty Hamster S...

Looking at the pictures of CES I came across a new Seoul-based company Silbatone Acoustics that show off a new speaker “APORIA” in Vegas. It is a back-loaded Manger.
What I read the company philosophy I was not pleased.

The recent events in my playback made me to think about he new prospective duty of tweeters. Since the Super Melquiades was enlisted for duty the Vitavox S2 got it’s own dedicated amplifier channel and stopped to “see” the coil of upper bass driver. ...

I think the usage of Romys Injection Channel has misguided you to think it was implemented because of a certian lack of tone or some sterile sound, nothing of the sort, I cannot blame you for not having listened to Romys system, but theo...

Hi All,This is my 1st ever post, but extremely disappointed I never came across this site beforeHere is my current setup, for which I'm desperately seeking some help from fellow membersCabinet - Layered Birch Ply with curved sidesWoofers [93.67dB]- 2...

[quote user="Ronnie"] The room modes I thought I had to battle suddenly disappeared the other day when I decided to try stuffing the boxes a bit. Suddenly everything fell into place :-)I guess I can do better than using little cushions though... Do y...

Kids, do not let kids to subscribe the popular audio-freakish myths of the records spinning people about “the extraordinary beauty” of the Denon cartridges. Yes, the myth has some reasons: many more expensive cartridges are bad, very bad for th...

Well, this is huge mystery in the reproduction of the few first milliwatt and I very much applaud to what Nelson Pass is trying to do. Being muse a proponent of high sensitively and low power I very much experienced with the fact the high power amps ...

I'm wrapping up my horn building activities and have some leftover items available. 1) Edgarhorn 80Hz Mid-bass horns - Pick-up in Seattle - $350Condition - 8/10 based solely on age. No visible imperfections. They are in the identical condition as...

Greetings,
I may be able to answer some questions regarding crossovers, multi-amping, etc. - without getting bogged down, hopefully, in metaphysical issues.
First off, I live in San Francisco, if he's inclined 'drdna' and other locals are wel...

Hi rowuk,
Suffering is relative to your expectation and perception. Still, take the best driver you can imagine, measure the distortion, and you see same pattern but better than any standard compression driver: all distortions are phenomal low, ex...

[quote user="mats"]Too late now for points, but just the other day I tried to imagine your plan. and I was pretty close.Actually, it is a bit like what I have going now; 15" Eminence bass guitarr woofers in a sealed 3 cu ft cabinet,Oris 150 with...

First, Adrian, Thanks for your feedback on the newer designed 2A3 tubes... very interesting. I've looked at all 3 of these brands before but have not as of yet purchased any (I have a large collection of 45 and 2A3 of various NOS US brands...

Hi Romy, hi folksMy intro hello and first post, i just had to sign up. Just found the platform through googlin some hornstuff and came back too often.Especially the resonating oops was the latest topic that really cought my attention as im familar, a...

[quote user="Ronnie"] Listening to the horns, it seems that they indeed die somewhere below 120Hz. I was surprised, and a little disappointed that it seemed so steep. Good to hear that it's to be expected!!Yes, I'm using a 30-something-Hz 1st order h...

[quote user="haralanov"] For some unknown reasons, he later decided to change it with the sharp and artificial sounding fostex supertweeter. What might be his motivation? Logically appears the following question – is that Goto supertweeter so hor...

A lot of people ask me about those drivers and I’ll try to compile my vision about them. I did try most of the possible tweeters: dome tweeters with cloth cones, varies type of hard metal domes, compression drivers with aluminum, titanium, phenolic a...

I would discard the first part of your post. It is it truly irrelevant what Germans, French, Japanese or Brits were buying and what particular brand and in what time they consider as “fashionable”. It is know that Ebay or Akibahara popularity has...

[quote user="jtavan"] I would be interested to hear your reaction to the same CD ripped properly on a CD-ROM drive rather than recorded from SPDIF stream. If your transport is VERY good, they should be equivalent... but on damaged discs, or with bad ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Elso, I failed
to calculate the very precise size of enclosure necessary to make all the
system work properly. Generally speaking, if you have a very very small
listening room and very up-close position, and if you ...

Hi Romy,
FYI: The previous photo of some unknown persons "pile o' horns" appears to be:
Upper midrange: 1" TAD TD-2002 mounted to 650Hz Edgarhorn
Supertweeter: Fostex T90A or T925A.
Lower midrange: ...

[quote user="noviygera"]My mid/upper horns play down to 190Hz. That is -- 188Hz is the Fs of the mid. It's a horn loaded a 10" Precision Device driver. So I need a section (or two sections) to cover the bottom (below 190hz). [/quote]

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

[quote user="oxric"] My mistake. I should not use the term Lecleach on this site. [/quote]
There is absolutely nothing prohibitive in Lecleach profile, it works very nice for HF but the La profile shall not be used in cases where vertical clea...

[quote user="floobydust"] The main component that limits low-frequency response in any SET is the OPT. For these initial designs, I used the smallest Hashimoto SE OPTs... their H-203S for the 2A3 and their H-507S for the 45 which are rated at 7...

Well, whatever you do with your loudspeakers of with you whole playback system is kind of irrelevant if your drivers are not right. In my view the drivers are the very much heart of playback but in case of High-Efficiency and particularly horn-loaded...
