[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="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="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...

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...

Interning that the strings and are the primary beneficiaries of the “Injection channel” effect. It would be hard to explain to people who never were not in my room what the effect is but I would try. (Yoshi you have to visit me again and what I tried...

[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...

I am not sure that I am at final stage of my ULF wondering. I do like the integration-free problem of my ULF via tube crossover. I am a bit concert that I am injecting now + 9dB at sub 20Hz and do not feel that I have too much bass. I am a bit mo...

[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...

…or the “The new Channel”: some observations after the game.
This thread is organic derivation of the multi-paged thread:

First of all: despite that I got some preliminary positive result...

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...

When many of your will experiment with building and listening your own horns and spend countless amount of time by sketching a configuration of your new horn assembly you then might come to an observation that Macondo Upperbass topology is very s...

[quote user="Paul S"]Romy, doesn't Tim de P also use this cool Miller capacitance idea in his never-mentioned "high end" tubed corrector? Also, do I remember reading that he runs both channels through the two halves of the same twin-triod...

[quote user="Paul S"] Well, it looks like you've somehow managed to just drop this "oops" box of yours in there and very neatly offset some main speaker small peaks and valleys, which is VERY interesting, if not the point... [/quote]

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]So if I understand correctly, you are still using both elements of the Red, but have separated them, and now have the HF element as shown in the above photo, and the woofer is still in the large box (still sitting up on to...

Jessie, I have moved your post to your 45Hz horns thread but then decided to keep it here as some of my comments would be about entire system not only about your midbass horn. Anyhow, there is nothing there to laugh and it is pleasant to see that som...

I just posted yeastoday the post above and have got already a few emails asking about the “new” ways that I am planning to use S2. OK, let me to explain what is going on.
The default Vitavox S2 driver comes with thier default aluminum diaphragm with...
|
|
Listening my Macondo with new “Fundamental channel” I noted that my tweeter is not as effective as it use to be. The effect of “not-effectiveness” is very minor but at some recordings it is notable. My T350 still sorts the Vitavox S2’s top but it als...

[quote user="ulf"] Well, it was not really a surprise to us that the horn without the phase plug was dissapointing. Without the plug we had a horn that was a bit too short, had too large front cavity and less compression than we desired. [/quote]

A few months ago a reader of my site contacted me and informed about that he found a very interesting driver, that his is using and he is very excited about it. The driver is JBL 2490.

I have with bass not a problem but dilemma. I do not have problematic bass but I have a dilemma how to supplement my current bass with ULF without affecting my current bass. Adding ULF defuses my current bass, renders the bass phasing to be more ...
|
|
Romy, I re-read your comments a few times to better understand your feedback. I think you are saying the effects of my room may be dominating any problems with the Edgarhorn bass, or at least I can't know since I don't have any objective data. Is t...

OK, the preceding thread what I research the subject of Midbass Horns and Real Estate have finished with great success.

I found and got a house that I like very much ...

I got it!
I realty have got it this time and it is exactly what I was craving for and shooting for. I converted both channels for 18db/octave on tweeter and recalibrated the whole Macondo, in a slightly different manner...

[quote user="op.9"] I've no idea if the LP will be better. In my experience Mike Dutton really makes excellent transfers. I'd be fascinated though if you could do better... [/quote]
I do not a lot about Dutton label but when what I was searching for...

I made first set of test with one PP2000 vs. two PP2000 driving my enter playback. All grounds were lifted on the load side. The presence of second PP2000 did not made sound bright as before, the second PP2000 sits sufficiently far from the first...

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

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]OK, I disconnected my MiniMe speakers and left only Macondo to care sound in the room. I was listing for the last week Macondo. There is no bass, just upperbass horn at the bottom and The Injection channel a full range....

Playing with B-2 power amp I made an experiment and instead of loading to it the MiniMe Bass section I loaded the B-2 with Macondo’s bass arrays. I made add-hog attenuator and coil to EQ MiniMe MF with Macondo’s bass and gave some listening. It w...

I am very much do not like the current state of my mind about the single-stage Milq. Let me to explain….
In 2001-2002 I spend some time trying to assess the sonic influence of PS to sound. After making numerous tests and prototypes I concluded that ...
