    cheers to everybody here, I have some days vacations and it´s 10.45 pm in germany, listening to 10 CC first Album from 1975 . Their first hit single " I am not in love " is recorded on the album " the original soundtrack " as well. On the Phonogram Germany Label. Amazing acustical quality at these times.

    You may remember, when I send the RF7 Diagram to you, a couple of weeks ago...the red line with the voltage divider

    You have to know that I had the coil inductance measured by an electrical engineer. He said it all fits. In addition, my crossover does not match the mirrored image with the parameters of the original crossover. It is modified. The dynamics of the horn were dampened linearly by 2.5 dB. The presence spectrum, especially at high volume, was too dominant and obscured the basic acustic tones and voices, especially in the depth of the stage representation. I have only been using the external crossover for 10 days and am only listening to the new acoustic performance. The first measurement diagram shown above shows the frequency response and the freedom from distortion of the entire sound spectrum. Of course, I do not rule out any later changes, but at the moment I am just amazed at how the RF7 MK II plays. Best regards MicroMara

    My TT is made by the legendary japanese Factory " Micro Seiki " and is about 38 years old. I own it since 1982. Every two years I do services on it, like change of the oils for the disc drive ,oil for the tonearm lift, or tonearm adjustments. Depends on the cardridges that I use. Using Moving Iron only, like Grado´s , Soundsmith, Nagaoka´s or Osawa .

    At this point I wanted to say thank you again. Your graphic helped me a lot to implement the arrangement of the coils. Without this graphic, I would have chosen a different arrangement, but this could have led to induction problems. Thanks alot CECAA850 💪 👍

    Steve Miller Band, Timelessly captivating with "Fly like an Eagle" and Circle of Love with the track "Macho City" on the B side 16:38 minutes of musical and tonal delight

    I now follow your tradition in this thread with the illumination of the record on the turntable and integration with cover. It's nicer than just showing the cover of the record you just heard. I now have a few days to finally be able to listen to music in peace. I still have vacation entitlement from 2019. In Germany you have to take your remaining vacation until the end of March of the following year, which is legally required.Tangerine Dream ... my favorite album is "FORCE MAJEURE". I even have the Clear Cut version

    I am only a small amateur against the engineers at Klipsch, but in the past few days I have tried with a "mini dsp Umik 1, an Omni-Directional USB Measurement Calibrated Microphone measurements at a distance of 39,3701 inch ( = 1 meter ) . The microphone was at a height between Horn and the first bass woofer. For comparison I have 3 diagrams here. The first diagram is from the original RF7 MK II. This measurement diagram was published by the German Hi-Fi Magazine "Audio". First axial, the 10 degrees high, 30 degrees, 60 degrees and 90 degrees. The second diagram shows the measurement of my modified Queen RF7 MKII, axial only. The third diagram shows the measurement diagram of an RF7 MK III. It was published by the English HiFI magazine Henley Audio UK. Of course, I don't have the opportunity to carry out really professional measurements at home, because I lack the equipment and soundproof rooms. Nevertheless, I believe that my measurements at least give indications. THD = 0,290 % ! When I bought the RF7 MK II 4 years ago I was in love with her, after the Moddy phases 1 - 5 I loved her ... now I adore her . Best regards MicroMara Now it´s your turn .........

    cheers my friend, enjoy your wiskey . On my RF7 MK II with the new crossovers, Greta van Fleet sound supple soft in the heights, the mid-tone as with the melt of golden honey colors, the basses rich and dry with the energy of a volcano. The voice of the frontman like that of Jimmy Page. The boys are incredibly good.You also need the 2018 album. Buy for now, still 01.a.m here.

    I'm listening to the American rock group "Greta van Fleet". The albums " from the fires " and anthem of the peaceful army ". I also have everything from "Led Zeppelin" as records. Greta van Fleet are really the reincarnation of Led Zeppelin ". I am thrilled. Best regards MicroMara

    I have to thank you for your patience. After a good 4 weeks of membership in your community, I feel part of it and thus a small winder in this huge clockwork. See you soon Best regards MicroMara

    Just heard these two groups Kenny Burell's "Midnight Blue" recorded in 1967 with the musicians Stanley Turrentine, Major Holly Jr. Bill English, and Ray Barretto. Then came the album "CONCERTIO" by Jim Hall from 1975. With the musicians Chat Baker, Paul Desmond, Roland Hanna, Ron Carter and Steve Gadd. Great Stuff ..... Regards MicroMara

    Yes, this is really a unique effect in blues music with a high recognition value

    Yes, I know "the golden middle" is mostly the right way. Me ? too extreme? I think spontaneously of Youthman, who has produced a new video on youtube with only "50 pairs" of Klipsch boxes that he owns. I only have 2 speakers ! At least something that Youthman doesn´t have. Good Idea...the hollow alu tubes
  22. MicroMara
    I'm looking forward to it.
  23. MicroMara
    No problem. I am used to being viewed very critically for my passion and obsession. What I do divides into two camps. Approval or rejection.

    If you read my first posting, you will find that I always liked the original Rf 7 MK II, otherwise I had not bought it. When the MK III came onto the German market, I wanted to buy it first. But she didn't blow me away. That's why I preferred to start this project and build my own MK II. I only did that for myself. It was worth every penny. And yes, I value perfection when others overkill, okay, so I can live with that. Best regards MicroMara

    The measurements and diagrams of the measurements will come. This entire project has now taken a good 14 weeks. I am exhausted, need a little rest for now and actually just want to listen to music at the moment. In about 14 days I will then again deal with the technology and carry out the measurements mentioned above. I just can't anymore ... at least for the moment. Such a project costs a lot of energy. It would be my dream to be invited by Klipsch ... Best regards MicroMara
