Comparison of different wood and stuffed vs unstuffed cabinets
NBPK402 replied to NBPK402's topic in Technical/Restorations
That is one of the options I want to try...another is 3/8" of both. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk -
Comparison of different wood and stuffed vs unstuffed cabinets
NBPK402 replied to NBPK402's topic in Technical/Restorations
I am going to try a experiment with my Mini MEHs. I am planning to try different thicknesses of material. I have 3/8" Birch plywood, 3/8" MDF, and 1/4" MDF. I might go as thick as 3/4" thick to see if the horn thickness makes a difference. All testing will be with REW only. I do not have a accelerator like he had. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk -
A K-402-Based Full-Range Multiple-Entry Horn
NBPK402 replied to Chris A's topic in Technical/Restorations
I have thought about that, as I could then put my compression driver amp below the speakers too. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk- 1210 replies

A K-402-Based Full-Range Multiple-Entry Horn
NBPK402 replied to Chris A's topic in Technical/Restorations
My room is 19' wide and with them angled in to where they are aimed right at my ears...center image is right on the money and the sound stage extends to the sides of the MLP. So I have about a 180 degree soundstage... I like it because you are emmerced into the music. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk- 1210 replies

A K-402-Based Full-Range Multiple-Entry Horn
NBPK402 replied to Chris A's topic in Technical/Restorations
Can't say as I built my MEHs to be that way to fit in the corners and be floorstanding (I wish I wolud have made them taller so the horn throat would be lined up with my ears though). My Center is the normal way, but it is mounted on a short stand that angles it upward to the mlp. Here is a pic of one next to my acoustic panel. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk- 1210 replies

I am able to get mine a few inches from my corner bass traps by running mine on their sides. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk- 1210 replies

Has anyone used EV DH2A Drivers and HP940 Horns?
NBPK402 replied to Cornwalled's topic in Klipsch Pro Audio
Are they the ev dh1as kr dh2? Your post says dh2 but the thread says dh1. My friend is running the ev dh1as in some ev horns that I believe are the 940s... he crosses over at 500hz to his La Scala bass bins as I recall. They run up to about 17k, and he runs I think a 10db shelf around 12k. I can contact him and get the specifics if you like. Sent from my SM-T830 using Tapatalk -

Have you gone from a direct radiating sub to a horn loaded one?
NBPK402 replied to wuzzzer's topic in Subwoofers
I think he is trying to put them end to end. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk -
No duty on items under $200 to the USA as I recall.

DIY Amplifiers - What have you built and is it a keeper?
NBPK402 replied to Curious_George's topic in Solid State
I built some Icepower amps...way overkill in power, but not too expensive and sound great for the money. The amp cases are all Chinese ebay cases. The 2 big ones are Krell ksa clone cases. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk -
An attempt to build K-402-MEH clone in wood
NBPK402 replied to StabMe's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
Sorry, but no...in my last setup we never did a before acoustic treatment measurement, and in my current setup we will be, but currently my system is still down while I am rebuilding the amps, and configuring the speakers for one amp per woofer. I hope to have the amps done soon. -
You could always take orders from the forum and ship them.

An attempt to build K-402-MEH clone in wood
NBPK402 replied to StabMe's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
In my last house I used the mirror trick and did my first reflection points for the side walls and the ceiling with 4" of Roxul R60. We also put 2" Roxul on the front wall, and had a bass trap in all 4 corners and the rear wall with Roxul R90...it was right on the edge of being too dead. I had a friend of a friend over 1 night and we listened to Steely Dan Aja and he said it was the best he had ever heard outside of the studio. He was a musician and also had his own studio...plus he was in the Studio when Steely Dan recorded Aja. We really loved that old 2 car garage room in a room build. Now i have a room that will be impossible for me to ever get to sound the same, but at the same time the cubic feet dimensions are 4 times larger, and walls, ceiling and floor are all concrete, windows, and marble. I def have a much livelier presentation that sounds like a club, now. Hopefully I will be able to get the reflections down more with my panels and rugs...we will see when I tune again. -

I made some 2' x 4' x 6" (stuffed with 2 Roxul R60 2" layers) for each side of the horn mouth. We will see how much of a difference it makes next time I take measurements. -

You could always mod them to MEHs, and put them on end...less than 4' high. Drape some acoustically transparent material over them and put a heavy piece of artwork on top...and they have disappeared. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

Should have made an agreement to you doing what you want in your music/video room... I always have, and I can do what I want and she can do what she wants in her areas. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

Don't be disappointed if when you first hook them up if they do not sound good. The dial in process will take a while. Chris had mine sounding pretty good after a few times and then after a few more they just popped in to where they sounded. Magical. -
No, I gave them to a friend years ago. Now I just use DIY bass traps. Back when I had the diy tube traps, I also built some diy diffusers too...which also had the plans available for diy users. Both were excellent products and if you cannot afford to buy... I highly recommend making some. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk

They used to have the plans available and I made mine per the plans. I never said that ASC tube traps were not if the highest quality... I said they were worth it to make your own and save money. Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk
