  1. I have a question... Why do we need to use such expensive caps in a crossover ? The signal level is pretty high, lots of amps and volts. While in the signal path before all this the manufacturer uses ordinary products.If the less expensive caps work with low level signals why would the smae price level work at the outputs ? [pi]
  2. Tell her to look at the bright side..... at least they are not black.
  3. Could you elaborate ( or have the owner chime in ) on the EV drivers and passives please. Which EV drivers ? Was the passive modified from Roy's original design ... if so how ? We could speculate all day but it would be great to hear it from the "horse's mouth" They are impresive ... One more question.... what was the approximate room size and any room treatments ?
  4. Here's one.... For Jubilee's how close is too close as far as distance between and form a listening position ? Say for 12' away how far apart should they be..... For a sarting position I know "whatever sounds good to you"
  5. HOw are these chairs shipped ?? One big piece or is there some assembly required ???
  6. P.Audio BMD750 Who is using this and what are they using as a crossover ?? Thanks
  7. What do you use for a RTA ? with what mic ?
  8. Is there a passive network for using either the JBL or TAD ? Can I use ROy's initial design or do I have to go active ?
  9. Please note that a pair of TAD 4002s have a listed retail of $4K+ . A good street price would be in the mid $3K. A used price would be in the mid $2K. Before buying used ones, please remember that a pair of diaphragms would cost over $1500. Who has them new ? the ones on ebay are listed as new.... for less than 3K. Any thoughts on the Beyma 800/Ti or 850/ND ?
  10. One more... anyone know where I can get a pair of TAD 4002's ?? Every now and then I see them on eBay but I wonder about buying them from there...
  11. OK... What horns would be better for the Jubilee ??? What is the 403 ? How about using the TAD 4002 with the 402 ? Anyone using the 402 with TAD 4002's and have a passive network ? One more... anyone know where I can get a pair of TAD 4002's ?? Every now and then I see them on eBay but I wonder about buying them from there... Thanks
  12. So are you saying the 510 is better... say with the same driver ? How about the Beyma 755 driver on either the 402 or 510...
  13. Thebes, I have a question about decks... oil or latex and if you would any favorite brand. Thanks
  14. OK... Anyone think this would do anything to the 402's as the flange is not mounted to anything ???
  15. Nice work... So how do they sound compared to the Belles ?? speaking of which what is going to happen to them now ?
  16. Nice work.... Anybody have plans for a double 15" cornscalla ???
  17. 37,47,50,54,64,70,73,80,81,85,91,98,102,108,123,130,153,157,160,180,189,196 and still looking....
  18. Thanks JC, I couldn't have done it without you. They really do sound wonderful, I'm very happy. Thanks to Gothover too, for some really good tips on the construction. I already have a plan for the next horn. Top secret. Greg Could that be something to help "the pug ugly" be a little more WAF ?
  19. Would this driver work with the jubilee's in place of the k-69 ? What mods if any ?
  20. Any crossover recommendations? I plan to give them a couple months but not much longer than that. These have AB-2s. I think they're '98s but I was told they should have AB-3s. The first two numbers in the serial # are 98 and the seller said he bought them in '99. Try Al's horns and Beyma tweeters... best money I ever spent...
  21. I had it at about half volume once and an hour later, had some dudes from Oak Ridge National Labs, dressed in black breaking into my door... they were saying something about protecting national security and siesmic waves.... Once people have had their hearing damaged, their ears are not going to get better. It would be as silly to trust someone's audio judgment who had damaged ears as it would be to trust a blind man's opinion of a painting. Good point...but the damage is already done and I cannot turn back time.[:'(] Butt....I still want to know what speakers Ray Charles has in his home. Shouldn't the question be " I wonder what kinda of TV Ray has in his house ?"
