[quote user="Stitch"] Sound was really lifelike, true in tone, for 1000 visitors in a cinema with a 2W amplifier....of course it can't be compared in rooms for one owner with pinpoint imaging, but it was a good performance. A lot of listeners scratch...

Thanks for the link, Romy. This may be the first time I've "heard" that big WE installation and, sound wise, as I expected, it is everything I hate about "horns". Sadly, their "vaunted" direct radiators are a long way from coming to the rescue. If...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]However, in audio the coordinate system is not geometry but hearing and human hearing is not equally-dimensional. Humans, juts because the position of ears on heard have much higher sensitivity to horizontal sound source he...

I am a bit missing. Those speakers are Silbatone or G.I.P?
The anointment that I head was these speakers are made by G.I.P

The G.I.P is known as driver maker, not t...

rowuk , JC Morrison has been going it for years and has
some following at the people of Joe List type. I have paid attention to what they do/say and
consider them "Manhattan White Trash" with all consequential concussions.

It is nice that you report that they “sound fine compared to most of the crap at the show”, whatever it means. I was informed that Silbatone did not do anything original. They used Western Electric 594 and 597 drivers, both low voltage filed coils. ...

the cynical whores whom don't believe in what they doing from the ones which do. Joe Roberts happens to always have expressed his W.E love and bias ever since the dawn of "Sound Practices" so I don't see his involvement in Silbatone as a "whorish sel...

I agree...this is a tedious exchange. I feel sorry for the readers, if any.If can't defend myself against Romy arguing with me about what I heard, based solely on photographic analysis, in an entertaining manner, I must be losing my touch. Th...

The el`Ol’s comments about Cessaro did not find a proper electronics to drive this TAD made me to ask: what electronics Silbatone uses? It never was part of attention of anybody and regardless if Silbatone demonstrate god or bad sound it might be int...

Ok, I think it is it. I close the experimental phase of the MiniMe projects as I have selected and feel comfortable with MiniMe results. The MiniMe Bass section is the very original MiniMe enclosure with the very same drivers as I plane from star...

Joe,
Funny that imaging has very little to do what I think you do not “get”. Apparently my run about imaging was the only thing you “got” but I brought the whole “imaging thig” only as one of the illustrations. It is kind of sad that the keyword “im...

Mani, BTW, if Silbatone-pimping Joe Roberts showed up in here then it had to be the Aporia speakers with the back-loaded single Manger were presented in the show. Why would Silbatone otherwise to drag to the show that big and expensive mastodon...

Another particle of a good Horn Propaganda. It was published in Sound Practices in 1994 and written by Joe Roberts. I disagree with quite many of the author’s statements but his strategic view that the majority of the horns and the horn installations...
