SET Shootout China VS The USA

Hi, well,, I must say,,, actually I need a cold bucket dump,,haha. OK, got ya

WEll, in my limited audio world, thats bass in the Sophie Milman tracks.

 

 

 

Tell ya what, Stevie Wonder has a track on Inner Visions,, where the moog makes the woofers move 2-3 inches of solid slam sub- bass...maybe I will upload a quickie after this post,...I did upload a Elliott Carter score for FOUR!!! Timpini,, but this was with the Seas Thor demo.

Did not come off accurate,, the Sony cam had the timpini all distorted.

I’ll try again with the dual FR.

well, OK, so in my book, 40hz, is rock bottom. I am not least bit interested below 40hz.

So I give up the **real** bass(as you say..)) but I gain super midrange, why?

NO xovers,,WINNER

Higher sensitivity = Winner again

Double win.

PLUS its point source vs a tower like Sonus Faber, Dali, Rockport, Wilson, 3-6 drivers..

FR has decent bass/mids, nice highs all comming froma SINGLE driver.

Niceee sweetttt.

It beats me why FR has not been given their day in the sunshine.

I see Fr as the ultimate musical exp for light jazz, blues, classical.

The genres you mention, perhaps not such as 1st choice.

This is how I hear things.

Rolled off? In a 10x15 room, 60 SPL, near field, all sounds pretty good to my ears.

vs xover designs which I have issues with,, as you guys know. I am xover/low sens speakers most fierce critic

So i expect the same criticisms to come from yoyr camp against FR types.

I get that.

 

EDIT,,, was off to upload the intro to Stevie Wonders track off InnerVisions,, and realized that 1 UX250 tube went dark.

Trust me if a record has bass , these dual FR’s will deliver the goods.

8 + 6 inch cones, rockin N rollin with bass, as long as its in the actual record.

+ if I really want bass I’ll hook up the Defy with 12 Mundorf SESGO .47 caps, = will shred to confetti the wood cones in both FR speakers.

@ 12 oclock on the vol pot.

If we pushed the Defy hard, it would destroy Wilson’s biggest 8 speaker tower.

The towers would start to walk,, you

’d have to replace all woofers.

 

 

Flight of the Cosmic Hippo, that should do it.    I can see the blue plasma … from here…

I am a Flek of Robot in a Bella Universe 

All of the (your) Youtube videos you have linked here sound awful to me, and...

 

this is coming from someone who has used single wide range drivers (on a meager budget) for almost 20 years now.

 

If you "really" want the better/type of sound that this approach "can" offer you first need to wake up and smell the coffee.

I have paneling come out basement of lake house if you look for more cabinet material.

I have paneling come out basement of lake house if you look for more cabinet material. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks for the kind offer,, I'm sure its veery nice old grained wood. But this Tennessee cedar is my fav. Cuts are very rough, 1 cab is 1 inch higher than than the other,, 1 has sides that are IN the front panel/rear panels, and the other sides are OUTside front/rear panels. = each cabinet is different measurmemnets, but close to 50 liters. I'm no cabinet builder,, just a visonary for speaker designs. No one in the world, AFAIK has a dual Fr design system + tweeter,,just ordered another tweeter today, will run dual tweeters. ight,,in fact will build a mini Cedar cabinet to house both tweeters. The Davidlouis seller says no one in china has dual FR in a system. The DIY Association told me it will not work, it will sound just aweful. I don't listen. I really think my speaker offers some of the best midrange sound. You can't do this with AER, Voxativ, nor Cube, all have too high a sensitivity and many other reasons,'can't do this with any speaker brands. Only davidlouis VX8 + VX6 can you combine ia dual system. Nice day
