| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Three or four years ago I auditioned the Ohm Walsh 200 MkII's with their at-home trial and found them missing the special qualities I remembered. They were a bit on the heavy sounding side and lacked the sense of space I was after. That was a pity... | |
| Acoustat - Can it be saved? The capacitor is .01 UF 6000 V. The resistor is 100K OHMS..I know next to nothing about capacitors, resistors etc, but just wanted to say that there was a time i needed a transformer that was no longer made, but someone i knew was able to wire two... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sean, I wonder if a Walsh drive (which does have suspension) would also emitting sound by means of piston action like a conventional driver does, and if it indeed does, that would boost the SLP. You see, I don't know, but would like to know. But I... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? What is a pure Walsh driver supposed to be? This is what I think is should be. Please correct me if what I say here is wrong.A pure Walsh would emit sound 'only' by means of transmission line, and if the driver had suspension, that would introduce... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sean, I examine it, question it, go into it and find out on my own whether what I read makes sense to me and so far, it does not.I agree with you on...how could reasonable SPL's be achieved without suspension. But on the other hand "with suspensio... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Unsound, reading this over, I could not find any signs of mechanical cross-overs.http://www.german-physiks.com/NewFiles/WhiteBook.html | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sorry: I posted the wrong link for 'two cans and a string'.Here's the right one.http://science.howstuffworks.com/question410.htm | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? To complicate this subject even further, IF I understand this link http://home.swipnet.se/~w-61372/artiklar/article3.htmcorrectly. DDD's generate (what I would call) surface wave ON the cone, like waves on the surface of water and the Ohm F's gene... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Jamscience, now we can argue over...'Is John actually marketing what he had patented .When I said, "the cans are not diffusion cans", what I meant is that the meshed cans are not employed to create a the widely dispersed sound that they are know f... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Jamscience, thanks for the patent info. and picture. One thing I would like to say, is that the cans are not diffusion cans, they are as transparent too sound as grill cloth is. | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sean, I appreciate you sharing your knowledge, but there is something I don't understand after reading this quote from the German-Physiks files.The transmission line type has commonly employed a steep, straight-sided cone and a fairly conventional... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? That post didn't look like a joke, so I did a little research too find out just how fast sound does travel in some of these materials and here is a little of what I found...>>In general, sound travels fastest through solids, slightly less fa... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sean, The term "super sonic" literally means faster then the speed of sound in "air". Sound travels faster in solids then it can in air. Therefore the sound wave traveling down the cone material of a Walsh driver, is at "super sonic" speeds. This ... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Sean, I purchased my first pr. of OHM WALSH on Nov.3 1987, the 4-XO's. A Technical White Paper came with those speakers to explain too the purchaser how they operate and here is what it says in part....This cone is fabricated of special materials ... | |
| Ohm Speakers, thoughts? Ohm is still one of the classic linesTotaly agree and they are available now. But I did post this on a different thread....."From what I have read about audio and video, what I would like, is not available, at least not yet, and that would be 75" ... |
