  1. On each side I have two MWM-S bass cabinets, and one XII mid bass module, and one K402/510 assembly. I am specifically looking for the cinema settings for that combination system if they exist, and "very" specifically (most important) the time delay for the XII mid bass module. That is really what I am looking for. Any help on this would be appreciated Jim. Thanks.
  2. I never heard an Amp Camp Amp, but I will say that my HH Scott LK-72 has a definite vintage sound to it. It does not sound at all like my NBS/VRD more modern tube setup.
  3. I use an HH Scott LK-72 which I think is similar to a 299C. It was a DIY kit from 1960. I have had that unit for close to 20 years and I use it regularly still with some Heresys like you are doing. My experience has been similar. Clean clear sound, virtually dead silent, and a very noticeable 3D sound stage. Somewhere in this forum are the performance measurements after John Warren replaced the power transformer and other parts several years ago. I think he even developed his own version of the LK-72 after servicing my unit.
  4. Mutual coupling. Not new.
  5. I like this setup a lot. Separated L/R subs so the stereo image is maintained. A 45 Hz. wave is 12 meters long and as long as you place those subs within a quarter wavelength of the cornwall woofers you are time and phase aligned enough (until the Klipsch Horn DSP controlled subs come along).
  6. What I like is a hard ceiling and not too high. I think that can help prevent over damping.
  7. In the Klipsch listening room the only absorption are panels at the front and back of the room in the center and nothing behind the speakers. I assume to prevent direct "slap" from front to back. Otherwise it is a slanted ceiling and curved panels on the side walls. Fantastic wide open sound. When I'm in there I want for nothing. By comparison my room is over damped. I would prefer a livelier room but it is a basement with open insulation on the ceiling. I have absorbers behind the speakers and some on the front and back walls. Probably too much. Diffusion panels on the side walls and first reflection positions. I would be wary of over damping. I have a system in my garage built from leftover components adding up to peanuts and when the garage door is open there is a good argument that this is pretty darn good sound. No room treatments except lawn mower, Harley, and a bunch of tools and equipment. Sometimes less can be more. Measurements and a good EQ can help a lot.
  8. My Jolida had broken solder joints in the tube section. I touched them up and the noise went away.
  9. Looks like that receiver comes made to order for an EQ with signal processor ins/outs. That's where I would connect that EQ.
  10. Those look like a pair of original ALK universal networks. Cleaned up those could bring $500 + by themselves.
  11. May I ask who did the work on this amp?
  12. Looks like someone turned those into a classic piece of furniture. Hard to decide what to do about all that. Restore as is or return to original?
  13. I have a pair of original good working K33V woofers from a pair of 1973 cornwalls that I have owned since the early 90s. These woofers look identical to the K33V you have pictured above with the large round magnet. If you are interested let me know. I would only sell as a pair.
  14. I use both 684s and 884s. Good subs. But the Heritage horn subs have a cleaner sound.
