Continue in my journey to found an optimum solution for Multiplex stereo decoder I made today some experiments with Ampex multiplex decoder with intention to see if it would be able to offers any advantages over Sansui’s HA11223W-based PLL multiplex....

Thank you Ulf and Jessie,
I can't wait to get this started. Jessie I am going to send this plaster spec to my supplier and see if I can find something close..
In the past I would use plaster for creating a wax form.. then put the wax form into a s...

Hi Romy,
FYI: The previous photo of some unknown persons "pile o' horns" appears to be:
Upper midrange: 1" TAD TD-2002 mounted to 650Hz Edgarhorn
Supertweeter: Fostex T90A or T925A.
Lower midrange: ...

[quote user="cv"] Well, the Cogent (Steve Schell and Rich Drysdale) boys are building just such a beast: field coil magnet, (possible) permendur polepieces for >2T, Fs 70Hz, throat - dunno, but at least 3" dia, reduced compression ratio relative t...

The subject of electromagnetic, or as they called field-coil drivers, popped up at my site numerous times. (Look as it list of related threats). The advances or shortcomings of electromagnetic drivers are arguable, I have my vision, but it is not the...

This is terrific information Ulf. Thank you very much. I won't start builing until early december but will post the project here.
Plan to form my horns from microcrystaline wax first, so i can experiment with throat termination. I have a background...

In terms of the length of the horn, I'm allowing myself a total height of 7'6" (just below the average ceiling height of 8'). In regards to the mouth diameter, that's another matter. (It appears that I will have to build two [2] different...

[quote user="zanon"]As a horn player, I sometimes introduce honk because it introduces a stress tone that feels louder, without actually having to play louder. THis gives me more dynamic flexibility, and I can communicate more extremes.

Here is an interesting setup. It is nowhere in Moscow Russia. I did not hear it but it does not mean that we can’t analyze what the authored was trying to accomplish.
It is 3-way installation. Bass looks like dual G...

Mjloudspeaker,
That is all fine. I get that you like them, even though said nothing about the “new” M4 sound. There is another “even though”. You do not log it into horn and like just the sound of open driver. It is absolutely not indicative. ...

[quote user="haralanov"] Yes, you are right. Power – you have almost unlimited power. Dynamics – you have as much dynamics as you want. But there are a lot of associated problems with that kind of dynamics. The following illustration is taken by ...

Preamplifiers: keys to mystery – or…. how a preamp might be not only a load-driving gadget.
Years after years the preamplifiers are being a “terra incognito” of audio people. I admit that preamps are a subject of my persistent curiosity. I was alway...

Electronluv,
I decided do not spoil the “Who built horn” thread what juts was an announcement of availability of different horn boulders. I also did not want to continue the following thread:

Nope, I never heard about those
drivers. For sure a compression driver that goes down to 80Hz might be interesting.
A few concerns I would have however.
The people who make such a
driver would not come from nowhere but they rather would b...

Yes, I see the need for a phasing plug for a 40Hz bass horn. Most people choose to ignore the finer details and claim the wavelengths involved are too long to be affected by phase plug. If someone really understands the fu...
