garymd Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Count me in for the Cornwalls!!! I already have your "A" networks in my Khorns. Will you have something different to try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frzninvt Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 If you got something special up your sleeve for the big 3? Otherwise, I am totally re-networked. The AK-2 is easy to upgrade to an AK-3 with better parts. Keep in mind folks once you get to a certain level (network wise) the law of dimishing returns applies.

Deang Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 Cornwall ALK huh? That's a pretty pricey build for me right now. Maybe in a couple of months, we'll see. Believe me, it's as painful building them as it is buying them -- not inexpensive by any stretch. The network for the Klipschorn, LaScala, and Belle Klipsch is a constant impedance design with a first order bandpass for the squawker and a third order tweeter filter modeled out for me by Al. It is the network I loaded into Trey's LaScalas at Indy, and currently being used by Craig. I prefer to think of the network as an impedance corrected modified Type AA. Al calls it the Super AA. The original plan was for a build that most could afford -- but I couldn't bring myself to compromise on the parts. After months of driving myself nuts over this I decided to just build up a pair with decent but inexpensive polypropylenes and found that it sounded really, really good. Not quite as transparent and rich sounding as the more expensive caps, but much closer than I expected it to be. I really dig this circuit, and I want you guys to hear it. BTW, no Solens (or rebranded Solens). We'll just call the Cornwall version the Super B. Jeff Lessard is currently using this network, and Boomac has a set that he's getting ready to load up. Charles, think DHA with a third order tweeter filter and adjustable attenuation for the squawker. I'll be talking to both you and Carl offline to see if you're interested in modding your DHAs. If we do Kimbers than we are talking $30 in parts for a single board (I would waive labor). Did you ever load that network up in one of your AK-3 Klipschorns and compare the sound to the other one? Since you and Carl both have a propensity for high SPL listening, I'd like to get you both away from the first order tweeter filter of the DHA. I think that filter is best reserved for SET, or those who listen between 75 and 95dB. Willy, it means I drop a pair into a box and they get dropped kicked around the country. BTW, your networks have been shipped (I actually sent an email). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 The way to do this I suppose is to send me an email through the forum with your full name, shipping address, speaker type, and current network. I will compile a list and put it in the box when I ship it to the first person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
