Atelier Rullit field coil driver


Hello everyone

 

I'm seriously considering purchasing a field coil driver from Atelier Rullit. 

It appears that Rullit field coil drivers are adaptable through field coil voltage adjustments and that they are not inherently restricted to a certain cabinet. Even though field coils are versatile and flexible I still believe it's paramount to install them in a cabinet accommodates the drivers in the best way possible and a cabinet that suits my room. 

Allow me to introduce my listening environment: I reside in an historic manor apartment where my dedicated listening room measures 25 square meters (5 × 5 m) with ceilings approaching 2,7 m in height. I principally enjoy classical and jazz repertoire, ranging from solo recitals to chamber and full orchestral works. As an amateur pianist, I prioritize a natural sound—one that offers holographic depth, dimensionality, and body—while presenting a rich, organically pure tonal palette. Mr. Rullit’s drivers admirably embody these characteristics with their transient speed and natural timbre. 

 

I have read that following cabinets can be relevant and I have allowed for some personal reflections for each choice:

Front loaded horn

This would be a great idea however it seems that in order to get a good result I would need quite large horns and perhaps too large for my living room. 

Another thing to think of is that I would probably need an augmented bass solution.

Dipole 

A more compact solution that would blend in nicely with my interior however there could be an idea in not putting the exquisite driver in a box. 

Resonant cabinets

I don't have any experience with these cabinets and I would probably need a professional cabinet designer (and a larger budget) to facilitate this solution.

Other horn designs

My naivety allows for rather crazy ideas and I thought freely that I could just combine plans of La Scala (Klipsch) as the bass idea with some of the bone white horns from Le Cleac'h. I don't know why but perhaps you can offer your commentary on this solution. 

If anyone has experience with this or perhaps have some recommendations for cabinet designers etc., I would highly appreciate it.

If you must have a moving coil speaker get a Lowther driver in a folded horn cabinet along with a single end 300B amp.

Field coil driver’s are 1920’s technology! The World has moved on! Why don’t you choose a proven classic design like the Quad 57’s? I have two pairs. For sub-90 db listening they are unequaled!
