From the album: The system
A better view -
They are bass traps. Their brand is Primacoustic and the model is Australis. I have tried others too, but these were the best to my ears (also the most dense ones). They extend a little further than the speaker and that helped too. I tried taking them further out or in and decided this is the best setting I can not say enough about the positive experience I have with them on top of my khorns! More focused sound, more clarity of upper mids is the first two I can come up with. They provided a general improvement in my space. -
Thanks! The photo doesnt do justice to outside view because of the overexposed light. I am looking directly at the Mediterranean sea The distance from center to center of the horns are 18feet and I enjoy the imaging. I will put another photo with the screen down as well. It covers 4/5 of the windows for cinema experience...

I have made the complete upgrade including all the drivers too. It is incredible. I liked my horns before too, but they were edgy and a little fatiguing, the imaging was always incredible though. Now, the mids and top end are very very good too! I am a musician (as a hobby now) and I used to play a lot. I played drums and am very sensitive to drums sounds to be as real as they can be. Now thats a hard task. The drums with the bass drum starts down below and travels very high in the sound spectrum with the cymbals. The snares are also very hard to reproduce realistically. My problem before volti upgrade was hearing snares as if from a plastic tube. They had that kind of an unnatural coloring to them. The cymbals kind a distorted too, and the decays of sounds were not realistic enough for me. It has all been solved! This is quite enough for me. Also having a good matching system is very important. I am a vinyl guy with thousands of records. The most I enjoy after my upgrade is Musicmatters 45 rpm blue note reissues! Thanks to incredible musicians and Rudy Van Gelder, I am in the studio with these guys every night I have been travelling around and listening to a lot of systems in my friends places or around shops, and I am very happy that my system is on par or better than 10k+ systems ps. I also have now a pair of spare klipschorn parts which I am planning to build a cornscala with!

I would not put the k-400 horn in belle hf. I will build the khorn top and build the belle bass section. It may look awkard on top of the belle, I will model it in the computer and have a look first. I will let everyone know how it sounds in the end. I am still waiting for the volti shipment yet, so I cant start now. It seems this will be an early 2013 project

I have recently purchased a complete upgrade set for my Klipschorns and am waiting for them to arrive at the moment. I will have spare mid drivers, tweeters, woofers, horns with the grills and crossovers. It will be very easy to build for me the two spare tophats of the klipschorn. However I do not want to build the bass section because I do not have 4 corners in my room to utilize 4 khorns in my setup. It is also possible that I may just use one of them as center channel. Do you think it would work if I used khorn top hats and build the belle bass section utilizing the ak-4 crossovers and the k33 woofer.
