Yeah We could do some AER's, and Vox's Neo magnets + their Field Coils,,
back in the 70's we had a local shop which had a room packed with speakers,
i chose the
Philips 2 way, High Fidelity, Wsh I had gone with the 3 way.
Next to the Thors they sounded anemic,.
The Thors sounded anemic next to various cheap chinese *full range/point source*,,and so its likea shootout, Last speaker standing wins.
Yeah WE could do that.
We test, judge and kick out the losers, til we get down to the final shootout.
We all have to come to a consenus.
Midrange, testing based only on midrange fq.s not bass, nor highs.
I can get high fidelity in those fq's with no problem, Lots of good choices.
Its the midrange we are judging.
If you look at the fq chart for the Vox, its flat and no harsh peaks and valleys.
= You get all the music, with no distortion,
Troels stays busy trying to tame the midrange with all sorts of xover components
YUCKKKK,
can't stand xovers in midrange,.
I am not going to purcahse the Vox for bass/highs,
If they are there, well its a bonus. I am employing the high sens only for midrange, 1200hz=-10k.
From what I've read this area is where this driver really shines.
So finally my dream sound is not long off,
Been searching some 40 years.
Its was only last year that i was made aware of what these Point Source are all about.
The Ebay seller wrote back on one of my many Q's
**ohh no my speakers are not copies of Fostex or Lowther, we are cloning The Voxativ*.
huh?
Whats that?
He went on to say, *My Top speaker is like 80% what a Vox is**,,, I thought,, no must be at least 90%*. Its most likely 80%, , china can not copy that technology. Sure his top line are only $500, so if your budget is tight, its good deal.
But its not what I am after.
I am looking for The Real Deal.
