Single driver speakers - opinions

JohnK "Cdc You've decided that 4in c37 are the best. "

I never said this. If I said something to get you upset, I apologize. You have a wealth of knowledge and I would rather share it.

You then quote me as saying "you said no 8in is close to 4in in performance "
Again, I never said this. Rather I asked you "I would need more clarity to understand how every 4 inch is worse than any 8 inch, except for bass and dynamics, of course."
Not sure why you are taking what I wrote out of context.

JohnK "Seems you like to add things never said but imagined."
Nope, that's what you are doing. I don't know why.
I have taken direct quotes from your posts and responded. I have enjoyed your posts and advice in the past.
JohnK "You say I am a know it all,"
Once again, I never said this either. I was referring to your tone. Hardly a "helpful" tone as you say you are trying to help me.

For me, the funky soundstaging of an 8", whether Fostex or $14,000 Tannoy Westminster, and the rough HF of the Brines F200, is just as distracting as the loss of dynamics of a 4". That's why I would like to hear a good 4" T-L design. I think it would be the best of both worlds.

You do know a lot and I would much rather have you explain stuff like phase of SD speakers as I showed in Jordan's link.
Thanks

Gawdbless, I agree, I would like to benefit from his wealth of knowledge than get blasted by it.

Does seem a few manufacturers don't credit nagaoka. But KCS is not one. Think its well known I am a Nahaoka fan boy. Even my fe206esr cab was 4 generations up from nagaoka original design and again hes mentioned even in my review. All our cabinets are optimized from nagaokas and we still mention as do we fully disclose parts etc. Do other manufacturers? I could list many who no longer list origin of design parts etc. But KCS is no longer offering any BLH models except large bass horns but will custom build if asked. For now KCS is offering 1 full range driver loudspeaker a SEAS exotic equipped AS cab. And did I get up on the wrong side of the bed. No Ive got a SEAS exotic in my bedroom system I smile as soon as my eyes open. 1st thing I do is turn on tunes. I go to bed as they play;) No things are good for me I just seem surly for I am not a gifted tech writer or linguist. And I come across as short and a know it all. Seem forums are not my thing. Will stop posting. Spend more time with my boy sales for KCS are good. No worries except autism and politics.

And Cdc if you want a great plan for a TL fe126e. Email. Will send it out, build is not so hard. Sorry if things are taken wrong. As I said not a gifted writer. If I seem short or rude its just the way I post, in real life I am tall and rude;)

Hi JohnK

Not that my opinion counts for anything, and how I feel matters not in the whole scheme of things, but for what it's worth, nice job and good call on your last two posts. I was delighted when I saw your responses. The choice to continue posting is certainly yours to make, but I think it would be a grave injustice to our hobby if you weren't contributing. I wish you the best of luck and am truly happy to hear that sales at KCS are favorable.

All the Best,
Jeff Carder

Thanks John. I'll second that Jeff.
