Back when I used to travel and stay in hotels, I would see that the very nicest places and the fancy restaurants often had exotic wood furniture, so my desire was to have some Paul Klipsch signature Rosewood Klipschorns at home. They enhanced my home so nicely that I decided to play with wood veneer as a hobby. Kind of fun, but very time consuming to prep and then clean up, when doing it just once in a while.

Khornukopia Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 I have read that some folks make curved diffusion panels by simply binding thin sheet material under tension to form a semi-cylinder. Works good for high frequencies, but the thin panels vibrate, or resonate with low frequency sounds. When the resonance is sympathetic, it makes my woofers sound bigger, but technically it is a form of distortion, so to be properly effective as diffusers, these panels will need to be glued to a rigid backing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the K-402 horns are toe-in and tilted down slightly so they aim directly at the MLP, twenty feet away. The horns are 16 feet apart, center to center. The other seats also have good coverage this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Marvel has pointed out, the camera captures the black "fragments" of this vinyl wrap surface texture very differently than it appears in person. Maybe I need a better camera, but the bigger big screen TV just moved up past that on the wish list! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is a 77" OLED, but is sit at 5.5 feet from it in may small living room. It gives me perfect resolution of true 4K program, which is still rare unless you create it yourself. Also it gives me a perfect 50 degree subtended Angle, which is equivalent to the "sweet spot" in an IMAX theater. IOW, it fits all of Dolby's criteria for Reference Viewing and sound. Projectors suck in comparison to the full dynamics of OLED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
