| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? I agree with you jeales. Suggesting new drivers to a guy who wants a recap makes no sense... Also, these speakers crossovers are more complicated than most already. To make parts changes is really suggesting a totally new speaker. | |
| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? @bache why are you recommending that jamesfokes replace the drivers in his Mirage. You know that would require an new crossover design. Or does james have a defective driver and I missed it? | |
| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? @jamesfokes I am currently advising another Agoner in NC about a complete new build and have another Agoner from Michigan sending me drivers and crossovers.... Grannyring is more than qualified for this. Please make arrangements for him to do thi... | |
| Do Bigger Speakers Mean a Bigger Window? "Yet it's hard to recall many small speakers which attained classic legendary status apart from the BBC designed LS3/5A" Spica, Rogers BBC, Advent, EPI, ADS... A little bigger gets you, AR11 or Dynaco A25 or Spendor SP1 | |
| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? I've been kinda arguing with Invictus005 on a couple of threads. His points are actually correct that a polyprop is better than a mylar and a film & foil is better than a polyprop and a styrene is better than a film & foil and a Teflon is... | |
| Whizzer cone removal @fourwnds Agree with bache 100%... this should help Program and MicMeasure your speakers after you cut the whizzer off, you’ll get a good look immediately where they roll off. Quite easy then to figure where to cross the tweeter. https://www.roome... | |
| Whizzer cone removal @fourwnds after reading that you are unaware of what 6db means I would not recommend that you cut off the whizzer on any expensive part.. I don't see anywhere about what driver you are using. It would take some understanding of frequencies and c... | |
| Mundorf MKP Audiophiler or ClarityCap ESA ? Ok, I guess that I'm just wrong about Teflon's leaning cool, so please set everyone straight and list the 4 caps that we should all use... Everyone will be relieved that we no longer need to shop or go through this extensive testing or read from... | |
| Mundorf MKP Audiophiler or ClarityCap ESA ? @invictus005.... Lets just say that we have a difference in opinion for sure.... Yes, overall, I'd rather have a film & foil over a metalized poly and yes, styrene's are better and yes Teflon's are better yet.... Overall, these are true st... | |
| Mundorf MKP Audiophiler or ClarityCap ESA ? @invictus005 You seem to be taking this stuff personal... I is not meant to be. I am not peddling anything, but I have read through his site thoroughly. After you piqued my interest, I went searching to see if it was indeed Audiocaps that I had ye... | |
| Mundorf MKP Audiophiler or ClarityCap ESA ? I just ran across this guy that has tested a hundred or so different caps extensively. Not sure how good his ears are, but he goes into a lot of detail about different caps. I must say that after Invictus being soooo adamant about the Audiocaps ... | |
| Whizzer cone removal @Fourwinds Sorry, I have just found this thread. I’ve experimented with whizzer augmentation extensively. Depending on what your goal is, when done correctly, it is a no brainer. Of course realize that you are now dealing with a crossover and to ... | |
| Looking to purchase a new Reciever and I need some help! Outlaw RR2160, Goes for about $500 used... $900 new | |
| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? Rather than arguing about quality of parts. I think it is very important to see what kind of budget that James wants to use. I tend to be more frugal than others here and I’d hate to discourage him from an update. Even with some less expensive par... | |
| Should I recap my speakers? If so who can do it? Thanks for the kind words marqmike. I have contributed in many threads with Grannyring and agree he is a voice of reason and I would add... knowledgeable. |
