ClaudeJ1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Well since I curved this for my Super Heresy a few years ago (Al K's curves are accurate too) the output does rise between 8-20Khz, so it's very sibilant for some female voices, but it's recording dependent like all program material. IOW it's the opposite of a K77 which dives after 12Khz. This one is REALLY FLAT. this does help compensate for older guys whose hearing drops after years of Rock Concerts (12 Khz. for me). LOL.

jimjimbo Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Hang on, hang on....Dean, are you saying you don't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudeJ1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 They are either 110 or 120 drivers. The 10's are much bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjimbo Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 And, Mark, since I am to blame for Dean acquiring these, I should have first shot at taking them off his hands, should he feel compelled to dispose of them....LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deang Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 120’s Jim, I haven’t installed them yet. I’ve been sitting on the small horns for almost three years. Dave sent them to me to try, and I just never got around to it. But since so many are using these now, I need to hear what they’re hearing (since I’m building again). I had to run to the hardware store for the mounting hardware, which ended up being metric. I’ll install them tomorrow or Friday. Dave is a wizard. Maybe I can pull him out of retirement.

Deang Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 When John Warren started pushing the JBL 2404 and Beyma CP-25, he always pointed out that extended frequency response translates to improved transient response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Scalas - which also have Dave’s Fastrac LaScala horns and Allen mid-drivers (killer). I don’t think the Fc of the horn is low enough for a first order network. With that said - it sure sounds really good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudeJ1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I remember PWK saying about the huge Gauss driver used on the Pro 400 Horn for the original 2-way MCM: "If a driver can get to 19 Khz. it will be that much better at doing 10 Khz."

I thought you read up on my original Super Heresy/Baby Cornwall post showing these? Did that not convince you? Or were you just lazy or too busy?

He was right. I did the 2404's and his networks on top of my Khorns and they were quite revealing. It was at that point that I thought there were more "delicate" sounding tweeters out there than the K77/EV design from 1957! And the whole time I thought my hearing was the culprit................NOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
