I got my threads crossed, enjoy the Klipsch.
Looking for my Final Pair!!
Been through the high end maelstrom for over 30 years and although I have enjoyed the ride, I desperately want to find speakers that exude dynamics, tone and presence. I want to be transported to the Village Vanguard where The John Coltrane Quartet are performing any night I desire. I want to feel the timbre of his sax 🎷. When I close my eyes I want to be enveloped by the atmosphere of the space and awash with the impact and emotion being expressed by the musicians. I don’t want to hear what the engineers hear after they mix a recording...I want to be in the studio when the tracks are being laid down! So far, Tannoy Heritage Arden have come to my attention, Klipsch Cornwall IV’s, JBL S4700’s or perhaps Spatial Audio X3’s? Help

However, Things have happened today, Richard Gray lent me his Magnovox 1963 tweeter horn. and man, what a revelation. I mean to some of you ~~horn fans~~, this Magnovox might not be anything special. but its my 1st encounter with a horn. I LOVE the sound. Completely blows away the seas Millennium dome tweet, which is the finest dome tweet ever made. I love this horn so much, I've been digging arfound fora used midrange horn. a Ebay seller accepted my offer and now i'll have a 2 horn with W18E001's acting fo bass. This might become a real winner and could very well possibly compete with the Vox AC1A. I have a davidLouis 4 inch FR arriving this week, And will put that between the dual W19's, see how it competes with the horns. We have a real gun fight going down at the OK Corral. I have no idea which has the quickest gun in the west. 4 Inch FR with Neo magnet or these dual Horns from early 1960's. Will post how the shootout went down. The Vox AC1A's are slated for purchase late September. I know for a fact the AC1A has bass, mids and highs. Yet the horns , each is dedicated fora specific hz range with dual W18E001's booming out rock solid bass , since we added a 2.2 uf Mundorf SESGO cap along with the Supreme SGO 10uf. Adding the 2.2 really padded nicely the bass fq's. Witha 10uf crossed at 1900hz, now with a addition of a 2.2 crosses at 1600hz. These W18's /magnesium cones. with a 10 and 2 Mundorf Supreme caps, delivers a bass whicha sub just can;'t do musically. |
