First off, let me say Hello to all fellow Audiophiles!
I'm an audio-obsessed 29 year old currently living in the United States (Minnesota), and have spent years perfecting HIFI systems in vehicles, and over...

Yes, Jessie, this is the direction that I am contemplating - to put up a vertical poll to support the attic main beam and to cut the 4-5 diagonal lowering beams that lead to my working triangular wall. Also the residue of the attic roof under th...

I except suggestions and critique. I live in Turkey and I am not living in a city, I live at the coast. It is not possible for me to go and experience most of the stuff first hand. There is no one really interested in horns or have multi-way horn sys...

I was reading in the today’s New York Times as this weekend the NY Philharmonic played in Center Park and accepted the pre-announced encored from the 63.000 audiences via text messages and thought that is was such a cool idea.
A few years back I hav...

him to unlimit dynamics - in order to achieve the most live-alike sound. First
of all, he noticed that Goto pleases him the most with uncompressed transient
attacks more...

I most likely do not talk about decays or noise. It might be some kind harmonic inflictions in ultra low frequencies that have longer reverberation time, I do not know. What I do know that when playback enters a state of sonic audio silence some play...

[quote user="rdrysdale"] We are using about an 18 foot path for the sub. What we need is for some smart electronics guy to design and build a processor just strictly for time correction, and nothing else, no EQ, or crossover built in. [/quote]

As I said: most debates on the subject that I ever heard so far are not accurate representation of Analog vs. Digital dilemma. The same as the discussion in this thread about the “natural continuous process”, the “discrete process” and the “brain re...

If you remember it was the way how it started: HELP: I’m a line-level looser.Then there was this one: The ultimate buffer – light in the end of a tunneland course then it lead to the following: Reviewing preamps by imbeciles.it is r...

[quote user="haralanov"] Your midbass horns have delay with decay, because there are a lot of internal reflections (acoustic resonances) that takes some time to settle down below the treshold of hearing. It can not be compensated by "special type...

I want to share what I feel is a good application of an injection channel, as introduced by Romy. But this is different and also useful and i can tell you it works and very well. Of course, I do not recommend to use this application in the same exact...

Well, I also would like to have a spare ability to care current but 10A is 35 pounds monster and… it has just 100mH. I would prefer to have extra inductance then exacta current. The current wise is juts the thickness of the wire as I understand…I pre...

[quote user="Ronnie"]"would it mean that your use the same type SS receiver for MF channels as well?"<BR><BR>-Da! I'll do better.[/quote]Ronnie,
I did not realize that you drive all your horns with those cheap SS receiver. You absolutely...

I did not play my playback since Sunday and turned it last night after 4 days not being off. It was very pity sound. Even I felt that it was getting better after 2 hours I shut down the system as I has other things to do. In the past I have mention...

Yes, the last cap of power supply much be on the side of load as it shell have a short path to ground. Without it you will have “less bass”, more crosstalk in case it is a stereo amp with single PS and a few other negative things.
With cables is mor...

Very interesting company and their GAMMA model looks very promising.

It is essentially the very same Macondo idea - as I told when you go for 4-5 ways horn loaded installation then there are not a lo...

Ok, Andrew, this is allergy something. I would highly advise you in future before you post any discrete updates, questions, and ideas about what you to inform about the holistic objective of your project, sort of a view from 50.000 feet...

[quote user="Kcct82"] I know you're not a big fan of digital delay, but I'm using behringer DCX 2496 to make things easier... this way I get to keep all horn mouths on the same plane which avoids some reflections (from other horn mouths). [/quote]

[quote user="Andy Simpson"] (2) Yes, in most recordings - which are unlistenable - multiple microphones are used in close proximity in order to artificially generate 'clarity'. The side effects (as you noted) are massively exagerated (but uncon...

I have noted before that the quietly of sound that I’m getting from FM broadcast, or even from the regular FM transmissions of the regular CDs, is insultingly beautiful and not really compatible with Sound that I get out of my CD and LPs.

I today was abusing my damn Second arm, trying to get my bass back from it. It was not that it had no bass but it was very shallow and very different bass. It had a feeling that it was not from there, it was almost as some kind of time delay in b...

I need to say that with all huge advantages I have in my room with my midbass horns there is something that lost. I lost a great impulse response that I use to have on my old room with my direct radiating bass array covering up to 70Hz. I did not...

So far, I am listening without specialized electro-mechanical
delay enhancement, so any space I am hearing is either a matter of "cues" captured during recordings, cues added to recordings by engineers or similar,
or they are sonic artifacts result...

Although all of it has no relation to digital crossovers but still:
[quote user="cv"] On a vaguely related note: I dunno if you realise this, but conventional (ie excluding horn or large area ESL) speaker systems, even if measuring flat amplitude, i...

In my observations about the SEC 2006 I associated the high-end industry with a strip join. Continuing this thinking I have to admit that Srajan Ebaen’s 6Moons.com site remind me a strip join with inflatable robotic girls. The all girls there ar...

[quote user="Antonio J."] - Regarding C2 the 2000uF/450v cap, he suggests to replace it with 5 x 200uF/200V by Mundorf (he can get them for a good price, probably better those five caps than a single 2000/450). I'm not sure about this replacement, it...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I think it takes around 60 seconds on my amps. I have 2 minutes delay for high voltage, so it all within the limit. [/quote]
That is good to know Romy. It was quite frustrating when I tho...
