Nice job @dBspl Yes it's a passive. I like the concept but unfortunately have no place to put it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going to mount them under a couple of flat mounted ones that are just using built in speakers currently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USNRET 5036 Posted January 13, 2018 Almost pulled the trigger several times on the headphones but I just never use any, kept the Audeze LCD2s a couple of months and used maybe 15 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Khornukopia 775 Posted January 13, 2018 The CW IIIs had the back two corners of the room behind them vs. the Forte IIIs had one corner and an opening into another room, so a direct comparison was not possible, but the midrange horn on the Forte III is very smooth.

The new mumped horn and driver vs the Heresy mid horn in the Cornwall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moosee1955 23 Posted February 8, 2018 When you think about it, nothing has surpassed the original designs. Of course tweaks to improve on originals, but that's progress. You want that, to get it as great as you can get, tweaking capacitors, inductor's, newer smoother drivers, but really a clean 50 watt amp that can stand up, or surpass a 500 watt b&w 801 speaker combo, for live sound, that's pretty amazing in this day and age.
