Speaking of nice photos, did you ever install those Four 12" drivers into the Snail Horns you got from me over a year ago? Just curious as to how they might sound and/or measure.

Since commercial recordings get "stepped on" so many times and so many ways, what's one more Step? At least the user has the final Control Step instead of out of control idiots with large checkbooks!

2 Words: ROOM Treatments!

Yup. And the total fallacy of some "Audiophiles," is the statement: "I want my speakers to give me the sound as the Artist intended." PWK did it right with his recordings and hsi 2PH3 Array of Horns. The rest of the recordings TODAY, have been Stepped ON a half dozen times in the Mastering stages with so many Electronic Toys.... All driven by the idiots with a big checkbook the say: "Make everything louder than everything else."

I don't need a fix. I have zero problems with mine driving horns at either 4 or 8 ohms, passive. I have 3 of the originals and one Mk II version. I'm sure guys that had problems were trying to drive 84 db space heater speakers with too many watts. No "solution" needed here.

You are lucky the price went back up. They were available for like, $150 new for a while, which would kill your attempt at selling. I have 4 of them myself, so not need. GLWS.

I have 2 pairs in my Walnut SH 1.0's with E networks w/refreshed caps of the same value. Maybe SH 1.1 would be more appropriate, since not raising the horns up to a Cornwall b2 Network level (and the leads are already reversed for the horns). This (built in the E network) polarity change gets better phase response and creates a better sounding version vs. my original with the less attenuated horns. I should have never commented that it was, effectively, a "b" Network with reversed polarity. The confusion it created was unnecessary and the KISS rule should have been applied. The less you do to an E network Heresy, the better it is. My bad on that note.
-
The Carver Tube amps sound "better" because they use their inherent Microphonics as part of the feedback circuit. In other words, they "listen to the room" they are in. I use a microphone for the same feed back in solid state. It's an apples and elephants comparison at best. Not Class D vs Glass. It's not that simple.

PWK told me it was a waste of good copper just to drive a #30 gauge wire in the K33 WOOFER. So only worth the time to YOU, as my bs meter is pegging about doing that to a frikkin' Tweter!- 34 replies

You can just use an E network with the same woofers, that's all.- 34 replies

You skipped the keyword "value" when stating YOUR preference for permanent Tone Controls over neutrality.

Heritage Jubilee in a Small Room – Three Months in
ClaudeJ1 replied to MMurg's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Apparently the real question is "Will it still let us ROCK OUT on having them NOT in corners?" If it does, then no amount of factual feedback from Amateurs will suffice. Only fanboy emotional "testing" responses will be approved or retained. -
