jorjen Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 VERY pretty! Any idea on how the bass will compare to a k-horn?Do not know yet TP. I have now and have had Khorns in the past so I should be able to make a fair country comparison when I fire these up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorjen Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Wow! Those look great! Did you build the mid horn yourself?Thanks aj01. I had built some very nice 2" wood Edgar horns that I was going to use. Somewhere along the line I changed my mind and opted for a a pair of the beautiful FC260's that Greg Roberts offers.

I have now and have had Khorns in the past so I should be able to make a fair country comparison when I fire these up. As long as his dimensions are in the ballpark (no reason to think they're not.... it looks like he's probably got a decent skilsaw []) he'll have more output and as I understand it, 1/3'rd the distortion [Y] I think one of the first words out of his mouth will be HOLY MACKEREL! or something like that [8] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudy81 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Absolutely beautiful! Can't wait to hear your impressions once you have a listen. Congrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPower Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 jorjen, Simply, Beautiful. Up until now, I thought Greg's Rosewood KHorns that he sent over to Russia were the very best looking speaker that I had ever seen on this forum. You Sir, have just raised the bar!

mark1101 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 So have you got them up and running yet? What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Oh, they're up. He sent me a two word review over the weekend: "They suck". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You probably screwed up the networks. He should be running an active sytem anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1101 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Seriously, what's the problem......or is there really a problem at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bliss53 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 These look great. Congradulations om a fine effort. Can't wait to hear what you think of the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You probably screwed up the networks. He should be running an active sytem anyhow. I definitely screwed them up, I should have used electrolytics to take the bite out of those crappy beryllium diaphragms. I can't repeat the two word review -- the forum software won't allow it.

mark1101 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Well now you have me confused and I don't know what to think, At least the speakers and networks look nice. We are all in suspense as to how they sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 You know I'm jerking your chain. I don't know why he hasn't come in and said anything, but he's ecstatic. You know how it is -- you get a great upgrade then you disappear off the forum while you're enjoying the new sound. He might still be in the process of dialing things in too.

mark1101 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Yup I know.........then a few months go by...........then you hear a couple of other systems or someone else's Jubs..........then you think maybe I'll get a different amp or two..........maybe I'll try a different tweeter..............maybe I'll try 2-way.............maybe I'll go active..............and the hobby continues as usual.........and the audio world continues to turn. I wasn't sure what you were saying at first but with all I can see in those pics, I find it hard to believe that those wouldn't sound right. They are totally beautiful.
