Moreart, Since you are soliciting public opinions then I would like to say that I very much do not like what you do. Calculate the area of your horn mouth and you get up to what region you have equalization from horn. Everything else is a regular di...

Dear Romy, thank you for your opinion. Did you see and hear them if you are talkig about the quality? In Munchen High End Exhibition 2016 Evolution speakers celebrates big success in demo with KRaudio Kronzilla amp.http://positive-feedback.com/show-r...

[quote user="kodomo"]I have also designed my bass horn to operate between 160hz and 600hz and it will use a supravox 285-2000. It is a 110hz cutoff tractrix horn. However I found out that, there is a modified version of this driver that suits my purp...

Looks like the Red 10's are circa 92dB/w/m as an entire "speaker" including woofer. I've never played with them before, but I wonder how much, if any, SPL is scrubbed from the tweeter by the crossover so that it matches the woofer. Romy, from what ...

Romy, I was delighted to see your video monologue, and I look forward to following along your new journey.No speaker can reproduce the reality of a live musical event for various reasons, and all speakers are by their nature a conglomeration of engin...

As the recordings themselves are missing so much information, creating a plausible image (certainly not the original) is the actual “art” involved.I must admit that I do not generally have issues with singers mouths stretching between the speakers or...

[quote user="rowuk"]Maybe with the Dunnoy, we have a “working” point source? Perhaps this type of “point source” puts audio playback artifacts in a better location than with the traditional spread of drivers?[/quote]I think this is certainly a distin...

Ok, how to start. First of all we have to understand that out subject of attention will be a region between approximately 80Hz and 500Hz or something that shape the fundamentals of the “melody range” within your playback. Search my site I have writte...

Power SS amplifiers = 15%Power Tube amplifiers = 20%I think speaker amplifier matching is as important as other sections. amp/speaker matching need a separate number.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] BTW, pay attention that TU-X1 while doing “space” does not change the size of imaging. Pay also attention how sensitively TU-X1 portrays the acoustic environment of each performing hall… BTW, if you use TU-X1 then try...

I must be missing something - or not be ready for this yet. Here are my understanding problems:1) he starts with the "left" speaker and searches for the best bass. I would think that one should search individually with the left and right and pick the...

[quote user="Bill"] I have set up a 16 channel system with 7 floor Edgar horns, six inexpensive height, and one overhead speaker (all under $150 each) and one subwoofer channel, all controlled by a Trinnov Altitude 16 pre-pro, which is a computer...

Quickly again, for the record, and The Google:The back wave of the Manger has a much less flat response than the front wave. There are peaks out the back. It is not a symmetrical dipole. This issue is only of interest if you are using the back ...

As late as the 1960s every self-respecting hi-fi nut had a "secret recipe" for "speaker dope". My own guru would not give me his exact recipe for speaker dope but insisted that developing the stuff was a rite of passage I had to go th...

Tom Danley, the owner of DanleySoundLabs is an interesting not BS-type of guy. I would not be surprised if his middle-like speakers sound more interesting then majority if high-end audio speakers. It not necessary says that his Danley’s speakers grea...

Hi Romy,as distributor of David Haigners products to Austria and Germany I think I should make some comments on your...hm...review of a speaker you have never heard.I will not comment on the theory of CD horns here. It should only be noted that the A...

It uses at the buttom a regular sealed or ported box and the driver as direct radiator but they also put the speaker on the spikes and made the bottom looks like it is a horn output. Also at this larger model[/quote]On the smalle...

[quote user="Winnie"]Firstly let me say that I believe musicians could be just about the most important people to judge the quality of Hi Fi. They know how the music sounds during creation so can best judge if that quality has been preserved (less de...

From the above-linked 6moons’ site: Publisher's comment:Layered Sound as demonstrated at Marja & Henk's during my short visit consisted of running their Avantgarde Duos and the Model Ones simultaneously, the former inside at dominant volume...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]...though considering the scope of his customers he might not stick the MF drivers into the horn and those Morons would hardly notice anything. Most likely this specific Moron got the speakers second hand... [/quote]H...

Hi Romy,I see now you are throwing around the term "absolute tone" in a relative manner again :) . Why would you want to neutralize absolute tone and with a metal tweeter no less!! You are talking about a tweeter "absolute tone" offsetting a po...

Let me to explain how it started. It is well know that being a Dentist is in a blood of any Jewish boy and Alon Wolf was no exception. When he was little, the local kids teased that he might grow up without a dentist license and the little Alon was r...

Hello Paul (and everybody else),My name's Alex, and I'm from Alma Music and Audio, the US distributor for Audiopax (and also local San Diego dealer).First, my apologies for the "lousy" website we had. That is now gone, with a new website, but we're s...

... and incomprehensible. Also, there seemed to be a lot of theory about amplifiers.I listened to the upper/main part of this speaker. There is a woofer of sorts also --but it strangely wasn't connected.The thing looks quite industrial & if ...

Ok, my new listening room is repainted and ready to accept audio setup. Probably this weekend, if I have time left, I will make a first try with Macondo. I think the main thing that I need to figure out now is what would be a listening distance in r...

[quote user="morricab"] Used Wilson X1 Grand SLAMM. Not the best speaker but dynamic like a horn and less colored than most horns. Use with good tube amps and it makes a superb sound (with 95db/watt sensitivity and an easy load 30 watts is probably s...

All I can think of what it is, in simple terms, is that what you're describing is a nature-like and..actually it can be considered many things, more electrically direct or not, acoustically direct or not..equalizer for tone, pressure, vibra...

One of the most frustrating things in hi-fi, IMO, is using the wrong speakers for your room and/or the wrong speaker/amp pairing. It is impossible to get anything right or to even get started if you don't get this right (enough). For exam...

Novygera:If you have a transformer where the impedance primary-to-secondary is 5K:8, it means the turns ratio is (5000/8)½ = 625½ = 25. This is the ratio by which the voltage is stepped down and the current stepped up in going from the tube to the s...

Yes, that WAS a common connector but this won't help you now. Radio Shack sold those as recently as ten years ago.Since the female side of the connectors has spring terminals there is some variability permitted in the diameter of the male contacts. I...
