[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Well, it might sound as a heresy to you, but I personally
consider the impedance curve is a bit irrelevant in this application. In this application
you need to care only about only 2 things: if you have enough power in yo...

[quote user="anthony"]I seem to
remember you had this sort of issue when setting up your previous room and
eventually you moved them time aligned.
The one stack of 15" and 10" sounds
like a nice solution. Do you think more 10" scanspeak instead ...

*** I am positive that if
you get 100 pieces of exactly your model of Tannoy, they will ALL sound
different.
Very likely, I have 6
drivers and one of them sound as I need, all the rest of them are compromised.
They still have the similar char...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Last night I did an interesting experiment. I took the bass towers,
just 4 driver per side, crossed them at 90Hz, line-level and drove them not
with the Milq’s bass channel but with SS Yamaha B2. I use it with the tube cr...

[quote user="Ronnie"]I'm curious about how you set up your horns in the room.From photos it looks as if they are fairly close together, compared to the wide setting you suggested I try, while our room dimensions are fairly similar?When I started push...

A visitor of my site sent me email with following:
“I take it you don't like the Rogero style (or Johan Dreyer) bass horns with wings, but you could add compression to a similar setup and make it work properly. I have made several design...

Yesterday was a truly wonderfully
day. I spent the whole day to play with playback, had a LOT of fun with it found
some unexpectedly good solutions that made me very excited.
The project with IB is
over, the result is surprisingly good. ...

We are closing our new house in 2 weeks and while packing
and preparing to move I am thinking about the configuration of my new playback installation.
I am debating with myself about going with sub 100Hz woofer tower as I
described above vs. intro...

Ah electrostats...I am fairly sure that problem with esls is trying to take them down to low and them not being driven properly. If you actually calculate how much current you need to drive transient peaks into an ESL, it's horrifying. I can't imagin...

I think my dysfunctional one 15” driver in my Midbass was
for a while and THAT was something the make me to feel that I need to move
Macondo to 9-9-1 position. With the recent changes (recovery of a woofer,
recalibration of channels, EQ of the mid...

[quote user="anthony"]Personally, I am
probably going to do a line array like Romy's using the same drivers but twice
as many...so eight each side. I have the drivers. This
configuration should give somewhere around 109dB @ 20Hz from 15w in room...
|
Thanks for the detailed answers. I will explain my setup.You are right about the dipole bass correction instead of the injection channel. Since I am waiting for both a subwoofer and the Fane Studio 8M and their horn, I am using the 12" as a b...

Anthony, I visited you thread and glance the progress you
are going with Milq DSET. I do not exactly how you feel, I went over it myself.
Let me to tell you how I dealt with what your experience. I am not sure that my
dealing with the problem is a...

Spent great time and with happy with result. Not the results
are so spectacularly good but the playback is back to be operational that I was
missing for a while.
Starting with films. The damn OPPO has not enough output for
my Milq. I decided to...

Hi Romy,
I am planning my own DSET build. I have based my speakers on your Macondo and
am busy turning MDF horns in my spare time.
Once that is over I will move onto amplifiers. I plan to build a fullrange Melquiades for a
friend and the...

It looks to me that I will be able to live with my 6 driver
line array. Again no measurements were made but it is what it “looks”. Sound-wise it is very reputable and I just might
leave it as is. My current room is 6 larger to what I had in downto...

It was very interesting experience today. My son have a birthday party and they decided to do it in our house. I was obliged to play Harry Potter in a big screen for 15 kids, so it's naturally make me too move all the speaker along the wall...
|
This weekend wife told me that I should not do nothing else
but to fix my playback and this was exactly what I wanted to do. Yesterday I took
good 14 hours to play with it, moving boxes, trying to find a good
configuration, making measurements, th...
