This type of the “time alignment” has as much to do with time alignment as if they whistle into the horn and observe the re-entering echo. What they do is perfuming the ritual dance in front to the loudspeaker that called “trade show ballet”. The Sit...

Antonio,
The Amati's tweeter and the rest of the similar tweeters are totally out of game form the prospective of my post above. The Amati's tweeters kick in at 2.500 with first order (heavily compensated), it means that those tweeters run the imple...

I left the SA8535 burning for entire day and nigh, driving it with HF “torture” signals. Interesting that the driver become much more civilized with those “alien sounds” completely evaporated. Honestly it become to sound much better… but at the...

[quote user="slowmotion"]How was the lower midrange affected by the tweeter removal? [/quote]Now the S2 is crossed at 700Hz with first order where the upper bass begin to dive. Since I use now a new line-level (yes my buffer project is over quite suc...

Sure, I heard, they always sound quite awful and they are an illustration of a wishful but wrong thinking. First of all their tweeter are curved (!!!) into…. something that could be only theoretically called a horn. What was in the mind of a des...

[quote user="MINGSU"] I finally received the GOTO SG38WNS 15" woofer and GOTO SG188S tweeter this week. My next step is to build a dual driver bass cabinet to cover 70Hz down. [/quote] Ming, I know nothing about the Goto woofer. Would you care to sha...

Referring to my very recent acceptance of the 6E6P as a tetrode to drive the tweeter:

I decided to today to stick my beloved 7721/D3A in place of the 6E6P – thanks God they have the same pins l...

Romy:Going back, you said:"Vitavox S2 does OK up to 12.5K ("strong, clean and in character") on it’s center but I never use this driver pointed directly to me but rather at good 20 degree off. (I hardly can tolerate any compression driver point direc...

[quote user="op.9"]I now run my 'tweeter' amp 1st order high pass at 2200hz (driving BMS 4540nd in 1500hz leCleach horn) so my impressions might have some bearing on Romy's new amps. I was playing around with operating points and components in my sin...

[quote user="Dominik"] I saw and hear thise horns on audio show in Waraw this month(I went 200km to this show only to hear this thing). It is La-horn 200hz, smaler horn is La-horn 1000hz. Drivers is BMS. Bass is TL. Orginal name of this system is ROC...

I noted that cellos “got something” at the bottom after they were Water Dropped. I did not even intended to write about it as it is an ordinary, anticipated and not particularly "exuberant" change. Improving of LF always leads to improving of HF perc...

In this case something like 5khz to 15khz -- only for the tweeter and only for DELAY. However, if the cellular midrange horns have smooth coverage above 5khz, all the better. But I have no experience with them - maybe they sound good to 8khz....Of co...

Well, I think that you should first read about Romys Macondo speakers. There are several threads with his thoughts that should help you get away from the DIY approach that did not give you the results that you expected. You have experienced first han...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]audiofilofine, you need to examine your room and your entire domestic environment in order to see where and how you might make your pair of bass horns. Also, if they will be 20Hz horn then are you planning to use next chela...

The first and the bigger thing that I like about them is that Anima is trying to use the vertical-horizontal configuration where the bell of the vertical horn serves as frame for horizontal channels. I love this idea and had a number of my own th...

[quote user="kodomo"]I dont think a standart klipschorn would satisfy the cat. I had one, then I heavily modified it and in the end I built my full scale horn system. I still keep that modded khorn system as a second system.If I may suggest, if you u...

Your latest post got me thinking in a sort of incomplete way about how you might locate the injection channel... If you consider tone as a harmonic of the original source, then (depending on the order of harmonic) it may in fact not be co...

Thanks for your quick reply. I have been to assistance audio`s website, however was unable to find such model, but is possible they just disassembled the tweeter or whatever.This is really interesting news, about their violin reproduction, me too wou...

Another Rocky Mountain Audio Show went on and Cogent dragged this filed-coiled asses :-) to the show. I was wondering is any changes with Cogent during the last year took place. The unfortunately-famous whore : Jonathan Weiss - has become ...

Romy,If you use the plastic surround S2's from 500-5KHz won't you still have the bulge that concerned you at around 1.2K? I thought you suggested that the metal suspension units didn't have this bulge.Otherwise it seems a nice idea, albeit a bit expe...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I wonder if any new interning horns ideas are present at CES. There is a post at the hi-fi-heroin site:

… that depicts a...

From Alex's thoughts it seems like one approach might be related to/interfaced with the program itself, such as RIAA or FFRR, etc., etc., even though I think those "recommended guidelines" have been only loosely observed by recording e...

Last time we wrote you thought I should focus less on tweeters and more on midbass.I am not done yet, but I have found a very nice midbass solution. Somewhat unorthodox, maybe.I have come to love police sirens! Without having A/B compared it to a pai...

[quote user="Telus"]Choosing the Acapella tweeter as a starting point is like wanting to build a Formula 1 race car by basing it on a set of Hot Wheels. Oh I know it's a popular choice--but only by the frighten and fraudlent audio human waste.

Hello Romy,Thanks for the great explanation, I'm a newcomer to horns, so please treat me gently ;-)Very interesting info, so in essence there are two limits, the real "hard" limit, where you risk damage to the driver, and the "sensible" limit, below ...

Hi Romy, I've been following your progress, it seems that you are drawing some very similar conclusions to what Steve Schell and I have learned. The bass horn has to be the proper size in order to work well, we are having ext...

I very slowly started to convert another amp to DHT. For now I listen just left channel and in a striped down mode: no tweeter and no Injection, letting the MF to care the whole upper range. It is interesting to play different tubes in this mode. Fra...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I have to admit that although the Macondo “Water Drop Tweeter” sounds very good but I do not have that “shocking sound” that I got from the “Water Drop” during my initial introduction to it. I kind of always felt it and I ...
