WMcD Posted October 22, 2004 Posted October 22, 2004 Dang. The BBS wasn't allowing file uploads last weekend and I could not give you folks anything for weekend reading. But now that service is back. I wonder if it still fails to keep an upload on the first page of a thread. Just below is an article by PWK, "Eight Cardinal Points in Loudspeakers for Sound Reproduction." That may be double entendre. Best Gil Quote
WMcD Posted October 22, 2004 Author Posted October 22, 2004 It took five tries. Dang, we're supposed to be able to upload 4 MB but the silly thing times out with 1 MB files. Gil Eight Cardinal Points by PWK4.pdf 1 Quote
DRBILL Posted October 23, 2004 Posted October 23, 2004 Thanks, Gill, I loaned my copy of EIGHT CARDINAL POINTS several years ago and it never came back. Rereading it was just like a visit from an old friend. DR BILL Quote

WMcD Posted October 29, 2004 Author Posted October 29, 2004 Gee, I don't recall saying that. It doesn't seem to be true either. But read the article for yourself. Gil Quote
WMcD Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 Probably what Tony is referring to is my description of the demo at the visit to Hope some three years ago where we heard a "Jubilee" set up versus a K-Horn set up. The "Jubilee" looked to me like two Jubilee bass bins with a nice facade. The high end were fiberglass horn of undetermined origin with B&C drivers. X-over . . . we don't know. A Belle was the center. The K-Horns were at the back of the room. It was a theater setting with seats for 40? It was big. There was an A-B. To my ear, the Jubilee bass was better. That is what the article reports too. The K-Horn treble was better (clean, higher). I suspect that the fiberglass horns were not optimized to perfection. Again, we were not listening to the wooden horn(s) which appears in the photo of the Jubilee with PWK. Naturally, others who were there should add their recall. Gil Quote
edwinr Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 What an interesting article, Gil. It seems that the contents of this article are just as relevant now as when it was written. Quote
