| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil My wife was a bit put off by my oris 150 converging horn array with 8 oris 150 horns and dual upsized imperal bass horns with 4 -18in woofers. This system end to end touching no space between was 19ft wide. My wife hated the size but after a week ... | |
| Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers? At least you didnt look at the fostex w400a hr price. Iam working out a design using these with a ribbon;) in a 2 way...... | |
| Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers? I spent over a decade with dipoles most models including maggies. For me HI-EFF been the better sound. Now with HI-EFF ribbons about this frees up design. I have a few med to hi-eff hybrid ribbon loudspeakers about. Gives the best of both worlds. ... | |
| Pure class A amplifiers = "slow" amplifiers? In my opinion dynamic range is more loudspeaker related than amplifier. For if you rely on massive power to get dynamics you are forcing your loudspeakers to perform, requiring massive cone excursions and much heat to crossover parts and voice coi... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Supremes are alright the silver golds are much much better but costly. I mostly use silver oil or silver gold | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil $500 for caps? Fostex t90a $300 pair, t900a under $800. With a just a solen would do better than the klipsch tweeter no mater what cap you use. With a mundorf silver gold even better.... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I agree loudspeakers are the most important part of the system. As far as 50% cash for crossover 50% rest is just crazy. If I followed this 50% rule my loudspeakers would be the worse off for it. A crossover can not make a poor transducer into a g... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Still I feel using such costly parts on the poor old klipsch tweeters is a bit of a waist of funds. Replace it, use a good cap and be done. Trust me the tweeters are a very weak link and with what your spending on crossovers parts you could afford... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Sorry dont know of any paper oil caps. I owned a 500c had it rebuilt by fischer doc, best tubes you could buy in it was fun. But not close to performance of my modern tube gear. Did ok on my vintage speaker collection. I was able to pick up some a... | |
| SET amp for high efficiency horn speaker yamamoto 45,wavac md300b, jeff kornef 45 SET,art px25,cyrus brenneman cavalier,FI 2a3 mono blocks. Depending on your loudspeakers design these should work well I used them on my hi-eff horn riggs. Still some horns can be a bit harder to drive any ... | |
| 15 watts & 94 db eff. speakers: how loud? 3DB twice as loud. 1 watt 97db if 8 ohms. 2 watts 100db, 4 watts 103db. A fe166e in a BLH is a much diferant beast can play louder more dynamic than a fe167e in BR. The BR versions of fostex horn drivers are poor performing unless used in nearfiel... | |
| What capacitor values? I tried to help you;) Didnt tell ya to shit can anything. Pretty hard to rework a network of a custom speaker that has no info available but what little you listed. You should be happy anyone took there time to post. And I design loudspeakers and ... | |

| sub+satellite or full range? WAF, cost, system size. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Have you run in the mundorfs? they take many hours to fully open up. Doesnt seem to me that your givin each set of caps enofe run in time before judging sound. |
