    That is beautiful.  But that does not look like the diy kit I saw.

    It looks like a completely finished product. Did this come from down under? 

    Are those ISO Acoustics pucks?

     

     

    In pretty sure the original builder @sootshe purchased the Eliptrac 400 as a kit and was assembled down under and finished 

     

    These are the isolation feet under the midrange horn

    And here is a photo with the custom crossover since we are discussing them on this thread

    Here is the new wine from Argentina and vinyl cover as always......DSCN9987.jpg

     

     

    Re the track Rattle That Clock 

    The recurring sound was observed by David in a railway station in Europe 

    The sound was used as the attention sound before an announcement was made 

    And David used it on Rattle That Clock

  3. Onward we go with more wonderful Saturday jazz

    @Tigerman would enjoy this album

    Title - Water Babies

    I primarily build Klipsch designs. Did Al design those?

     

    The $99 Super AA is a good value, but it is not the Super-X. The Super-X uses some different component values and provides 1dB increments of attenuation. I also build at a much higher quality level. He enjoys conflating the two because he knows it causes me some grief and confuses the customer. 

     

    The idea of using a swamping resistor with an autotransformer was used by JBL thirty years before Al did it. The concept was originally proposed here for Klipsch loudspeakers by Dennis Kleitsch (DJK). It is easy for Al to deny this, since all of those old posts were lost when the forum software was upgraded. Dennis was always very irritated by this.  

     

    The Super AA, Gentle Slope Networks, AP12-AK3, and the 3619-ET would not have come to fruition without me - those were my ideas. 

     

    Al is brilliant (and yes, he generously shares knowledge), but he will not give credit where credit is due. Greg Roberts of Volti has the same problem. 

     

    Totaly agree 

    All designs are re engineered from the original concept developed many decades ago 

     

    Re engineering an audio design is just a progression to accomodate the material its needs to reproduce faithfully 

    Music style / genre has changed from Classical to modern electronic and the sound wave spectrum along with it 

     

    Lower bass is one example

  7. Continuing on with the jazz theme 

    This album is the partner album to the previous Miles Davis I played 

     

    Its a complete opposite to the ballads of the last album ( My Sweet Valentine) 

    So much life can be heard in this live concert recording that you may be mistaken in thinking the performers were walking on hot coals 

     

    So so much control its mesmerising 

     

    Artist - Miles Davis ( Live In Concert )

    Title - Four & More 

    Album ID - 9253 On Columbia

  11. I am bringing out a lesser known artists 

    Genre is traditional Jazz 

    Don’t think many would recognise this artist ( except for diehard jazz fans ) 

     

    I tend to favour Jazz with clarinet and this album has great clarinet sections 

     

    @Tigerman are you familiar with - 

     

    Artist - Bix Beiderbecke 

    Title - Bix Beiderbecke and the Chicago Cornets 

    Album ID M-47019 on Milestone Records 2 LP set

    Enlighten us, new tunes are always great!

     

     

    The current CD source system is

    Cyrus CD8 SE with PSXR external power supply 

     

    I have taken all my CDs off the shelf and are now housed in an alloy CD case 

    Sometime in the future I will build my own design Record storage unit and re install the CD cabinets again
