[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Make the full-range and then you will see where you are.
Still, I feel that for MF channels it is beneficial for do with a good DHT output
stage instead of 6C33C and perhaps it is a good idea to use DHT driver as well.
S...

[quote user="drdna"]I was really shocked when I saw this idea of yours. It is a trade off of course with improved control over narrower frequncy bands being traded for axial symmetry. Yet because the position of the drivers is so very imp...

Fllowing my experiments with Injection Channel
http://www.GoodSoundClub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=4473
I have discovered recently that I was a greedy fool who should know better.
The new Injection Channel does OK as a independent single channel bu...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Spending some time listening carefully my new setup after fine-calibration I recognize some inaccuracies in my previous comments and some mistakes of my original objectives. Here are some observations I would like to m...
|
Xandcg, I did not see this thread below. I would not comment
on 5x10x14 vs. 4x8x12 rooms, the answer is obvious,
What I will comment that the scenario you propose is very close to ultimate configuration
for Macondo-like acoustic system. A few this...

I have today a local audio guy stopped by in my room and listened my playback. I have almost painful reaction from this listening session and could not wait when it will be over. The playback sounded very unpleasant, I mean so unpleasant that I w...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]May 16, 2010: My ultimate wet audio dream was to have Bruckner Room. But so far it turning out that I got another big B room. Since 3 days back I stopped the intellectual masturbation with my room my playback up for the...

[quote user="haralanov"]Romy, you said there is no proper tone. In your old system/room setup you were very close to the back wall, but now it is far behind you. I'm probably wrong, but I thinkyou don't have proper sound in the mid-upperbass with...
|
[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]In this case, below 50Hz, I think el`Ol is right to suggest that you consider using DSP as a permanent solution. The SMS 1 is in theory the silver bullet... You just need to find out if you can live with it long-term. Be...

Hello everyone:I exchanged a couple of emails with Romy, and since the topic may be of interest to everyone, I am posting the emails here. Just in case anyone wonders, of course I checked with Romy to see if he was alright with his reply to my em...
|
Romy:Again thanks for the response. With regard to the most important question, my choice would be to use the standard AM Amorphous C-Core transformers in the short term but the Direct Tube Drive in the long term. As I mentioned elsewhere, I was in t...
|
Adrian,
You pretty much said it but do not think that what you said it minor – it is in fact huge, with exception of some rough lathe-work: it is not exactly true but if it was true then it would be irrelevant to Sound.
I really do not know wha...
|
Bob,
Yes, the variants are multiple but the key I feel might be the following: smaller size, less reliance to baffled, smaller size. Or yes, did I mention the smaller size?
The thing that led me to think about the MiniMe incorporation was my recent...

A few days back I posted the following post:

I did an interesting experiment today trying to learn if those Melquiades driver tubes have even gain. The Russian tubes are notorious to have very widely spreading specification, so….
I took 14 6E6P. Some of then were new, some used and some violen...

E-v-e-n-t-u-a-l-l-y!!! Eventually the new “fundamentals channel” horn sounds as it should being incorporated in my Macondo! The key was the second order. I really never drove compression drivers to their 500Hz as I always used upperbass h...

…or the “The new Channel”: some observations after the game.

[quote user="danvprod"]My objective is to create a system that is able to emotionally re-create music in a powerful and realistic way. My greatest memories are playing in orchestras and sitting in the middle of the violin section with a hundred o...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I thought that the folks who are interesting where I am going with my Macondo should know that am still working with Vitavox S2[/quote]OK, I think now I’ve learned whatever I need to learn about this driver. In order to und...
|
Well, I screw-in today the S2 with filed-coil into my horn. I decided to drive it with 2.4A. I used a regulated DC PS and did not employ my prepared for this tusk 4.2 Farad capacitor: the voltage is too high for my cap. The current gave me a ni...
|
I made today some interesting experiment and for the first time during my “fundamentals channel saga” I get some stimulating and very result. I find a way to mount the “low frequencied S2 driver” on the speaker’s axe way above the Macondo’s tweeter. ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]However,
if I did it again then I would not do it in context of multi-channel amplifier
but rather I would make a maket amplifier able would test my ideas with it. [/quote]While I do like the idea of experimenting with MF...

[quote user="ml8"]So sometimes i just wonder why do you need 6C33C at all, with your high-sensitive speakers.[/quote]

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
[/quote]OK, now, after mach thinking, consulting and very little actual listening I have finally conceptualized my next move with powering Macondo MF channel. Considering that I have some extra space Melquiades’ ...

1) If you decided to use the 12” JBL 2206H driver then I doubt that you might talk about 4” throat. A 12” driver with wide outer suspension might go with 7”-8” throat. The 6” might do, though it might be a stretch....

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
Anyhow, it is interesting how the new 25 users that get those Studio 8M will use them. I wish something “new” would derive from all of it…[/quote]Speaking only for myself, I am planning to use the Fane 8M in a pair of 11...

[quote user="rdrysdale"]So how do you suppose the proper DPoLS can be located? With a system like Steve Schell and I are working with, everything weighs hundreds of pounds and to properly evaluate changes would take days, maybe even weeks f...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] 1) Horn loaded drivers are narrow-bandwidth transducing system. The wider range a horn channel covers the more it conflicts with restrictions of own topology.
2) All channels shell have strictly parallel axis
3) ...
