Sharing some audio recordings from my listening session this past weekend


My OKTAN6 system based on my six-way horn loudspeakers, with custom field coil compression and mid-bass drivers, is sounding great with all genres of music. The music is streamed from Tidal and played back with HQPLAYER at DSD1024x48. Here are a couple of audio recordings from this past weekend’s listening session (please playback at 1080p resolution for best results):

Waltz for Debby

Thanks for kind words!

My final sound adjustment is spkr tuning. As you know, putting more stuffing inside spkr cabinet makes the spkr sound to forward - vice versa. I adjust the speaker sound to same position with the original music.

My spkr is 2 ways. The woofer’s front sound is in-adjustable.

1) Adjust amount of woofer’s back sound to balance (mid-range position) with woofer’s front sound (refer to the sound of orig music). Small felt pieces are added (or removed) through the back port hole. 

2) Next adjust tweeter’s front sound by covering up AMT tweeter. Cover up too much’ll sounds darker (mid heavy) sound. Cover up less’ll sounds brighter.

3)Adjust tweeter’s back sound by add or remove tweeter’s back cover material (through back port hole). Too much cover up will sound piercing bright forceful sound. Less cover up will sound messy/confused sound.

@mihorn Alex  How are you making adjustments to improve it sound? Speaker positioning? Crossover adjustments ? or something else? 

@carlos269 Thank You for Your reply.

I have not grasped it all, but will say Finemet is an interesting material and I had tried to purchase small beads to be used with PC Triple Wire as a design for a DIY Cable.

I have been very recently being reintroduced to Blondie since the earliest days of Debbie Harry's career as a Singer. What's not to like, she was of her time and must have Paved the way for so many females to be a front in the music industry.  

@mihorn You know exactly what to tweak on the design of your speakers to achieve the desire results in their sound. That great that you can adjust your speakers’ design to yield the sound that you are after without having to substitute amplifiers, cables and other components like the rest of the mainstream high-end audio world. If you take the concept a step further and put the adjustments and control in the hands of the end users that where my real-time transfer function adjustment system comes in.

You get the concept of adjustability, as opposed to rotating equipment carousels.

@pindac That late 70’s early 80’s scene at CBGB’s that Blondie was a part of was a scene like no other.
