| Horns with good timbre and tonality? A generic question. Mostly we have horn hybrids discussed here. Not true horns. Should we be differentiating? Thanks. | |
| Horns with good timbre and tonality? @larryi Very cool. Are you in a position to share more? Today, I heard an exceptionally good midrange horn. For comparison purposes, one channel of a stereo pair was equipped with a wooden horn with a mouth opening around 16” wide and arou... | |

| Isolation platforms for Cube Audio Jazzon speakers @whitestix Mark, your approach will be (should be) dictated by the type of flooring you have. As you found out with your thick wool carpet having that platform makes sense. What you put under the platform is really your call. I'd encourage you to... | |
| Isolation platforms for Cube Audio Jazzon speakers @whitestix If you haven’t already done so, search the Nenuphar thread for posts related to your question. Others have tackled this. I use Eden Sound Audio’s traditional brass spikes for the fronts and their hemispikes (with adhesive) for the rea... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure As part of the 're-entry' I perused my first audio classified listings email.
