| Why not horns? Take some time to examine this design. http://www.techfx.us/web/insubnia/Exodus%20Anarchy%2025hz%20TH.pdfIt is said to provide horn bass down to 25 Hz. in room. I would suppose that means upward extension to about 125 Hz. These are small enough an... | |
| Why not horns? Csmgolf has provided a personal account of an honest attempt to make horn speakers work for him. It could be argued that his experience is not indicative of the best that horns can offer but that is not the purpose of this thread. I want people to... | |
| Why not horns? My bass cabinets are 24 inches wide and 33 inches tall. The horn mouths are 18 inches outside diameter. Total height is 52 inches. You could hide my whole speaker behind a Magnapan 3.6. Go measure your speakers. Certainly mine are not compact but ... | |
| Why not horns? Marty - I can see in theory that the problem you mention has potential to discourage. I don't personally play my system loud enough for the lagging woofer issue to compromise results. But I'm coming into geezerhood so I' may not serve as a useful ... | |
| Why not horns? My system is unsettled as I am playing around with parts and pieces right now. I have a slight noise, a faint rushing sound behind everything. I've been able to eliminate it by taking the digital speaker management system out of the loop but that ... | |
| Why not horns? Rleff - My speakers are not single driver but rather a hybrid something like what Ralph describes. I have a 15 inch woofer in a 5 cu. ft. ported cabinet under each horn. I'm sorry I didn't make that clear. I don't know of any full range driver eit... | |
| Why not horns? I made an assumption when I started this thread that only a small percentage of audiophiles were aware of how well horns can reproduce music. So far these responses support that assumption. While there are many of you who might not enjoy the sound... | |
| Why not horns? Those of you who reject all horns out of hand have much to learn. | |
| Who R U? That would be a gold mine for the few women who participate here, assuming they would want anything to do with those of us who are single. I'm under contract myself. | |
| Why not horns? Here is the driver I am using:http://www.bcspeakers.com/product.php?id=0000000035Check out Acoustic Horn Company AH300 to see the horn I'm talking about. While it is true that a term like distortionless is hyperbolic, it is also true that you will... | |
| JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1 Pinkus - Check bounced - please send a good one. | |
| JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1 Thanks, Pinkus. I sold both of them, although the JC-2 is still "sale pending". Send me a personal email and I'll let you know how to address my $300 check. | |
| JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1 Rowland sold. Parasound pending. Now what?I want solid state preamp with at least 4 inputs. Remote is necessary. On board phono would be nice but not a deal breaker. Looking for ultra quiet, hi-rez and very refined product. Not sure about budget. ... | |
| Is Hi-fi getting more expensive? High end audio is getting more expensive with every breath you take. 30 years ago when many of us got involved, the ultimate speaker system might have been obscenely expensive at $2500. Today, after wages have crept up slightly, the dream equipmen... | |
| JRDG Capri vs. Parasound JC-1 Thanks, Soundlock. I know the difference between the amp and preamp. That was just a faux pas.You've convinced me to open the sucker and see what's what. Do you happen to know if the A-23 is the same as the A-21? I know it's twice the power but I'... |
