With the project of the 6-chennal Super Melquiades is about to hit its final stage I might to review my summarizing observations. The 6-chennals Macondo is driven by 6-chennals dedicated DSET Melquiades, that looks like properly orgies for the job. T...

About the bass, which must be lacking in such a construction:I once made an experiment with something similar (single "cut" horn with "mouth" directly adjacent to the driver), and subjectively there was much less bass extension when I placed a barrie...
|
The Fs resonance does have its width BUT that means that the 30 Hz PR resonance out of my example is excited when the driver is not exactly at 30 Hz (not that a 30Hz PR can resonate at 32 0r 28Hz!). By definition a Helmholtz Resonator has one frequen...

I am taking about a “Default Evaluation Loudspeaker”. Let pretend that all people who do SET appointed one single full-range driver: like some kind of Fostex of Feastrex… and all agree that the driver is placed dead center of 100cm by 100cm open baff...

Haralanov, this is very interesting way of looking about the things. So, you feel if to slice the upperbass vertically by multiple channels then it has some benefits, kind of odd to hear it from a person who advocates a single driver approach :-). So...
|
Teodor, if you read my site then you know that I am not a big supporter of the acoustic system topology that you describe. It is not matter of driver but many other aspects. So, I do not think, or frankly speaking do not care about back-loaded single...

[quote user="Kerry Brown"]The RCA1428 is a great sounding driver on RCA multi-cell horns. Not that I like multi-cell sound.[/quote] Hmmmmm… If you feel that RCA1428 sound great in multi-cell then hat make it to sound different in single-cell? What I ...

hmm...I didn't realise I had left my browser logged-in to your site (I left my PC on over night, downloading some files).'..the only advantage that class-D amplification has is cost, size, heat generation and power.'In my eyes, that's more than I cou...

HI,dipol bass, not happend in nature,yes different listening, because of reflections,below ~300 Hz the listening room is dominat,you listen more the room, not the single driver.If you look my horns, the double horns,you can see my OMNI-bass experienc...

Another particle of a good Horn Propaganda. It was published in Sound Practices in 1994 and written by Joe Roberts. I disagree with quite many of the author’s statements but his strategic view that the majority of the horns and the horn installations...
|
For a single driver, looks to me like you need an input signal of at least 3Vrms. A lot of linestages can do that, so a single tube power amp seems both reasonable and interesting. Yes, I was looking at wrong data sheet. You kn...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"] Interesting concept but let me point out a few considerations.
The diffusor does performs a mild "equalization" function if you want to call it that but it is also an aid to dispersion. It is light "EQ"...3dB might be abou...

[quote user="haralanov"] Your response is a very good illustration of how you redirect attention away from the actual discussing subject and point it to a completely different direction that has absolutely no relation to that subject. You asked me wh...

[quote user="el`Ol"] Hello Romy, have you searched for explainations for these observations? Are there others who made the same observations and tried to explain them? Does the damping factor play a role?From my limited experience I can say that ...

This thread has been pretty interesting overall. I've read most of it and would at least like to provide some feedback on the technical side of designing with the 45 and 2A3 DHTs... at least from my personal experience. A few years back I decid...

I was pointed out to me that my Feastrex thread is mapped to the search engines and some folks searching for limited information about Feastrex find given thread as some kind of reference. It is important to point of that I had juts one and juts mome...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Because GM70 can work in A2 class the ML3 has a very powerful high current-capable second stage (I do not know it they are 4 parallel 6H30 of some kind of composite follower) to be able to handle the GM70’s grid current.[/q...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I don't think I'd be tempted to make a back loaded horn to begin with. [/quote]
Yep, it is what it is. The back-loaded horns might have as convoluted back path as Scriabin music is but the sad truth about them is th...

I was thinking about it in past. I do not particularly believe too much in point source. We have no vertical resolution by our hearing and if drivers located strictly in a vertical line then in longitude domain they are single point source. Of course...

Understanding Line Array SystemsBy John Murray
Behind the buzz, there are a lot of factors at work in line arrays. An explanation and comparison of current models. This discussion can’t be contained in just a few paragraphs, so we must start with th...

[quote user="Saturntube"] The difference soundwise in this half range 180hz and up horn module between the Leak TL12.1 amps and the First watt F5 clone was big, mainly the tonal balance is very different with the midrange sounding thin. Highs w...

[quote user="Dresden"]… One very important component I'm leaving out of the cost of the horn is amplification (the horns will be active, using class-D amps). The reason for my choosing class-D amplification is that the modules and various compo...

of MTM arrangement of two TAD 1201 in <100 Hz Horn ? I assume they would both work in the same frequency range . Also JBL LE8 is only 89 db driver and it doesn't look like it can take any power . Difference in efficiency within the channels would ...

First off, the crossover point will be 530 to 600Hz. the RES 1.5 midhigh is 16" x 8" x 10" deep.Keeping in mind, I'm trying to cover 600Hz and below... Given space constraints of a medium size basement room, I came up with 2 options.1st option is to ...
