Paul I have to admit being wrong about "BUdification" (enabl doted Lowther) process . I don't have explanation besides lenghty "brake -in " time but I would not bet on that. It may be a show stopper for you but I also admit liking them better in fron...

Paul, you are missing the point. When I said about “tilted” response it is still a "flat response". If your 10kHz-2 octaves has minus 1-2dB over your 30Hz +2 octaves then it is VERY flat, way flatter than normal deviation of most playbacks out there....

Sorry, I was not clear (as usual...). I meant trimming per individual 45 tube type, not re-trimming for each individual 45 tube of a particular type. I doubt you will want to run your old globes the same as you run your new STs, etc.And since you a...

Romy,do not spit in my eyes as I do have solid state PassLabs 350.5 but even with this 50W Class A amp (push pull) it is exactly the same problem if it is switched off completely even for a short while. I can take ~ 2 - 3 days to be back to norma...

Ming, how are you doing? What I mean: how it your bass horn projects doing? We interacted in November and as I understand your horns is few month old nowadays. As now, your initial euphoria about the Goto bass and Goto horn should be gone and you sho...

Spent today a whole day moving the boxes, do some measurements,
fighting with REW interface, thinking, some listening… Found some bugs in the
system that I think screwed my initial feeling. The bugs were mostly by Thomas

Get in touch with Erik if you're not familiar with volvotreter web site already. His Trax calculator includes CAD numbers for profile drawing.I'm not sure how useful it'll be for your friend's CNC router. Check out www.diyaudio.com and AA for JLH Joh...

Thanks guys for all the suggestions.Klaus wrote :"...there are a lot of questions, but if one thinks to much, then he will end up like this lynn olson, pages and pages of endless talk and no horns..."Very true, I need to get cracking, but I'm&nb...

Actually it turned out that LE5-2/2105 are much more complicated driver and to sound right it need way more complex crossover then juts a band-pass the I initially unused. I spend some time with it today but did not find a configuration the I feel co...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Funny I thought that that for MiniMe it would not be so critical but as soon I plugged the DEQ-2496 in MiniMe pass I have heard that depersonalized DEQ sound.[/quote]It is funny how some people seem to not hear this at all ...

Yes, Romy, it is certainly an info-mercial first, with all the usual flash/buzz "facts" in play. Also, although all "studios" I know of are "balanced", many of the "hot-rod" studio guys also use all sorts of "power conditioneers". For one thing, it...

Yes Paul,DSEP is planned. Actually I have already experimented with it only with the 12" Fane neodymium midwoofer that covers 80-1K and using 1 cap for the low pass filter. I really like what it does. I am comparing how it works with ceramic and neod...

I think low power ss design is the only way we can make ss to sound good. in my idea all high power ss design i heard had no emotion in their sound in comparison by good SET designs like AN UK Ankoru.the first SS design that make me happy in comparis...

Mani, I have long run an 8" Lowther DX4 down to 150 hz, over 2nd order high-pass. My impression after plenty of listening is that I wish I could cross it at ~ 400 Hz. The "problem"is not simply how "low" the 8" driver will go but it is also a quest...

It seems like I should just abandon the idea of using the Druids... and trying to get some sort of coherent integration with my WB-Chimeras (acting as the lower- and upper-bass units)... and running the whole hodgepodge with totally different amplifi...

Zanon, I do not mean DEQ, but that is one way to do it. D[SET] is another way; and it can be done in real time, by a couple of means.If you actually settle on the mid-field monitor approach, you will want that sort of speakers installed before you g...

I do not use in Injection Channel any fancy cables. There is not a lot of need for it. The Injection Channel is mixed with M...

in this experience. I agree that FM broadcasts from live performances or live taped performances have the features that make music like nothing else in audio. It's the source I enjoy most and that is more educative for me. I would be happy participat...

The Sussurro has an unusually wide loading range listed by Soundsmith, ranging from 470 ohms to 5k ohms. It is possible that more recent models have a somewhat tighter range between 470 and 2k ohms but I am not positive. The capacitance of Soundsmith...

I am still waiting for a (single stage) tube that can make full range Music via speakers. I mean, this is the real issue, isn't it? Sure a good tube will pass a "full range signal" through the right transformer; but where is the tube that will do t...

Congratulations on the build! anthony wrote: Yours uses all toroids, or mostly so, which are more efficient than the EI that I use.
Why have you chosen EI vs toroids? The latter emit less.
Cheers,

II would like to pass a word of warning about the C-15W driver. I do not know this driver but it looks like it has dual voice coil. This might be a hell or blessing. On a paper the idea sound very interesting but unfortunately when I seen it it never...

As I am slowly put Macondo back to the business a question come to my heard: how can I make the Injection Channel sexier visibly? As now Macondo is re-assembled and reinstalled but with no Injection Channel sitting atop. I extend no room for argument...

Somehow I massacered the formatting of the last reply. The past days I was listening to the speakers in every imaginable configuration. Sometimes I based my changes on "accepted theory" of crossovers and math, other times I just made...

Yes, the layout kind of not optimum. You might try to lay the transformers sidewise and to make the RCA atop, above the transformers. Still, I hope you understand that your hum has very little to do with layout. Properly grounded unit shell has no no...

Paul, so far the interconnect shields were connected to the phono pre grounding bolt only--I do not want to pass any equalizing currents between the TT and the phono via the shields (the TT chassis, armtube, etc was connected to the same place via a ...

Hi,I've just taken receipt of a Model 2 to use as a DAC in my study (using the ADC occasionally for recording live from a mic). I would like to feed the balanced XLR outputs of the Model 2 into the single-ended RCA inputs of my Berning Siegfried amp,...

Again, about the stupidity of non-critical perception.
I have seen in audio all over – people visit each other, listen each other playbacks, in response to the hospitality of the owners they pass numerous compliments about the sound of given i...
