Building Watt/puppy clone

carl, if you had never seen the mlissa curves on the focals, ill bet you would never have heard the peak. its pretty damn high in freq and not audible 99.44% of the time and only perverted synthisizer recordings could excite it. had i never heard the w/p set up properely, playing at live levels with NO sense of strain, id think that i was in for the heil experience after reading one of your posts on the focal.. i suggest instead of building a clone, buy a used pair. or do some homework and build something original. sure, fine drivers are pricey, but henry kloss made a business of taking inexpensive drivers and using them for their attributes. maybe in the midrange where most of the music is, you should put a fine driver. and of course, the cabinet should have much integrity. pipedreams started with pvc pipe material long ago.

carl...im not againsnt learning. give an example of program material and what the effect on the sound the ringing is to you. i can easily fo to brooks berdan's store and he is likely to have w/pS up. he is of course a vinyl maven so some vinyl suggestions would be appreciated. i would also like to hear corroboration from some others. carl, its not that i dont believe you. i was quick to point out the slow woofers in the infinity servos and the original m+k subs much to the chagrin of the people at woodland stereo(servso) and jonas miller sound (m+k). sub sat mating is nearly as difficult as st.bernard/toy poodle mating. im open to suggestion.

carl, i just realized that you must be way younger than me. im 55(cheeeeeeeep breakfast@dennys.com .i dont hear the flyback transformers ar ultrasonic alarms anymore! soooooooooo, wpS art probably ok fer me. my daughters even hear the uS dog training device we have too. it works fine on the cats, they take off upon first impulse of the thing. the dog jkust cocks hher head over like the rca poster puppy and gives the expression: wuts that??? sub amting depends on a few basics.......no hump in the satellite mid bass(as in the LS3/a which was nearly impossible to work with), variable xover point, variable level, variable phase control, and similar speed woof to sub. of course big bux to buy great drivers and electronics is really helpful. the progress made by ML in the xover region is rremarkable compared to other designs out of the past. agiain, i dont know your age. ......hifitommy@aol

ok, SUPERSONIC. im in the medical business and that word is uksed a lot there. we sense freqs above that abut its with hair follicles. julian hirsch, are you LISTENING? good riddance to him and i wouldnt have wished death on leonard feldman, just another magazine for him to write for. now it doesnt matter unfortunately. oh goody, my S&V scrip has been extended. well, arf arf. i hear my masters whistle. notttttt. you know carl, yu should have veen around for the days of early shibata styli (owwwww!) and heil drivers (same band of rough freqs). heaven forbid you hear them together. the 1st threshhold 400As had that about them tool i was much younger then. i still hear up to about 16k so i hear most of the music, glad i didnt fo to vit nam and ber subjected to gunfire. for that ill settle for the opening of EINSTRAUSSFEST on telarc.
