Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an extended listening session with the Living Voice Vox Olympian outside of a show environment. Since said listening session took place upon a boat – moreover, a wooden-bodied boat – under what can only be sai...

I have seen that people online react surprisingly to my post above. Hey are accustom that I am hyper-demanding and tough for production of DIY speaker attempts but above I suddenly proposed to relatively mediocre speaker to become the become th...

Hello all (from Thailand)!I found this very intersting horn society here by accident and would like to show and share my first experience with horn speakers system.It's consist of 4 way system .[IMG]http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg69/krairerk/hi...

Hi jd*thank you for caring, and encouraging me to wade through all of this horn info. I'm 63 by now, not sure if I'll ever get out of there alive before I'm done though...Romy posted some picture about a commercial horn (Western Electric WE15) th...

This is a good example of a CNC horn. This is the Carfrae I was talking about. MDF Upperbass horns are made in sort of the same way, but you do have to cut the angles on the Lathe. (or leave the steps like a The thing is it is not really tridimensi...

OK, would you say the weak link would then be:1) Just the topology of Lamhorn (single driver with back-loaded horn appendix)2) Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general3) Or any single driver loudspeaker in generalOr perhaps a better quest...

I do not do anything with my Opera Room, and I am not sure if I will. Still, from time to time I pick from the tree of possibilities some very kinky fruits. My love to Mussurgsky is know and last weekend I visited my local audio guy who has a very go...

Romy,I don't see a wine rack in the view of the speakers. I believe that the wine needs music to age properly, just as we do. A dark cellar is said to have advantages but the fish down there are albinos. Perhaps some research into how the music of Sc...

I lost all hope for horn loaded Lowther speakers . Got Phile Mikey (fremmer) recommended TT and new old MC cartrige (benz Mc3) so analong front sounds comparable to old modded MCintosh CD player I have. I finished (took al ong time ) Hagerman c...

I am currently planning high-WAF speakers for my sister which have to stand in the corners on the floor. Asking for small corner horns I was told the EV Baronet could be a solution. Simulating it with roughly estimated dimensions I found that the FR ...

[quote user="js"]Thanks for the reply. I'm using a Jabo KH-55 horn for hf/upper mid, so I think I'll have to experiment with different size chambers. Beyma quote the volume displaced by the driver as 5.5 litres, so I'll start by trying a 9 litre (g...

Of course we do not defend or support a given topology itself but we only wrestle with the results we are able to get from it. Right? But perhaps there are some basics we can agree on? Basically, if it's Tone you are after, you are swimming upstre...

I have to admit I have no idea and did not experiment with matching horn loaded tweeter to big ,direct radiating "extended range' MF channel. I'm not sure it's doable. I was speculating on the reasons why the owner of Moscow instalation switched from...

Hi Romy, As a recent convert to horn-speakers I have greatly enjoyed trawling through your website and I have learnt plenty not only about horns but also about questioning my own motives and the desired end result of a possible "from scratch" spe...

actually I'm from Iran and needless to say we are stock in the middle of nowhere here (sanctions,...) so we weren't able to hear much of the horn speakers, so we started to think we should do it ourselves because we are able to obtain CDs much easier...

To me the big green drivers in the midbass horn look like old Siemens Klangfilm or Telefunken (or other German manufacturer) 10 inch units. Maybe 12 inch... I had a pair of 8 inch Klangfilm once and they do have interesting tone across a couple of oc...

Outdoor performances always seem to me to fall short of indoor ones, and there are plenty of reasons why this should be so, but there is something attractive about a horn installation in a garden...it ought really to be made of rock, of course, f...

Dear Romy, thank you for your opinion. Did you see and hear them if you are talkig about the quality? In Munchen High End Exhibition 2016 Evolution speakers celebrates big success in demo with KRaudio Kronzilla amp.http://positive-feedback.com/show-r...

There are a few at least theoretical backdraws for the Array in my view.Of course having a lot of different drivers playing at the same frequency implies that all of them should work in perfect unison, if one starts lagging a little bit it will mess...

Well, it is a given that I am not a horn guy right now to begin with. Of course, the "theater speakers" were and are mostly dinosaurs and/or mostly of historical/nostalgic interest. I just want to mention some excepti...

[quote user="Wojtek"]So, what is the solution for a mono system? Also, I remmember that your mono experiments with field coild S2 produced honk .Should you use stereo drivers to get better results [/quote]Use stereo system to play mono, a properly ma...

hi Romymy name is Angelo. I am swiss/italian, live in brazil the last 10 years . I grew up assisting my father buiding speakers and comercialize them in small numbers. I where listening for many years on Klipschorn replica with altec 416-8b...

Hi Romy
a good sound in a room does not depend only on the speaker chain, but essencially also of the room acoustics. Probably many of the Trio systems didn’t sound right just because of that…. I was at Holgers Home in Lautersbach back in 94. He ha...

I've been waiting for something to turn up on the wooden "horn/backhorn" speakers used by Ayon (at Newport Beach 2014) when I stepped in. I checked Ayon's webite and found out that Ayon offers their own line of speakers, none of which are the ones I...

I think we are all agreed that if time alignment and space were not issues, a bass horn would be the way to go.Now, I'm fairly convinced that the overwhelming benefit of horns in this range is the phase response, ie flat group delay vs frequency. Mos...

I believe that those "allien sounds" are an enhancement of the frequencies comprised in what is called the singer's formant, which is the area of the third formant when opera singers sing vowels. That area is in the range of 3.5 to 5.5 KHz and is a s...

When you say, your horns are 11feet apart, does this mean from acoustic centre line, or the outside perimeter of the upper bass horn. If it is from the outside perimeter of the upper bass horn you are having a similar setup with mine. When they are a...

Well a DEQX will cost you less than a set of good caps! you can buy one and play around with it for a couple of months and see for yourself, you will have fun anyway and thats what tis all about! You will need and extra preamp and 3 different amps...
