Bose buys McIntosh?!!
This has been the audio buzz for the past couple days, but I'm so busy I hardly paid attention. When I heard it on Tuesday, I mentally tuned it out as noise, thinking it some branded marketing rubbish.
Then just now, Kelly said to me, "Did you...

Re: Found some older parts...
Cool old horns!
I have some of the old Eminence H290 horns too. They were a radial horn, and they sounded really good, in my opinion. They offered good spectral balance and fairly good horizontal dispersion.
That's why I used that particular horn...

Re: 7Pi questions and plan
You've got mail!
I sent plans to your email address. We do have midhorn flatpacks available, but we do not have flatpacks for the bass bin or the midhorn cabinet. Just the midhorn flare. To tell the truth, the rest of the build is pretty easy.
C...

Re: 3 Pi or similar for Small room - Near field listening?
All models of Pi speakers offer high-efficiency and smooth response. They are an easy load for tube amps.
The one Pi and two Pi models do not offer uniform directivity. They sound great for what they are, and are suitable for surround speakers or ca...

3 Pi or similar for Small room - Near field listening?
Hi, first post here...
I'm curious what the thinking is about speaker size as it relates to room size and volume levels. The background is:
1) I live in an apartment and I can't play music very loud (neighbors). I do love music, though. I was a wor...

Re: 1pi Measurements
You'll probably need to get the microphone out. Speakers like these have great on-axis response, and the overall average balance is pretty good too. But move the microphone off-axis even just a little bit and the response changes, especially in the ver...

Re: Corner horn listening distance
Since your room has a front wall span of just under twelve feet across, the best area to listen to the cornerhorns in your room is in the area between about six feet back and twelve feet back from the front wall. You can sit more distant than that and i...

Re: Joe's basement
Bruce is getting up in years, that's true. But he's got a keen mind, so while he isn't as spry as he once was - and definitely hasn't been lugging speakers to shows in a while - he is still sharp as a tack.
But Bruce likes the tractrix horns and I li...

Re: Joe's basement
Sorry to digress for a moment, but I want to make a quick plug for Bruce Edgar.
Bruce is a heck of a guy. He and I have participated together in various audio message boards and audio shows for the past couple of decades, and I've always considered h...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
I wouldn't add a super-tweeter on top, because it interferes with the speaker's uniform directivity. If you want that last half-octave up-top, I suggest going with a driver that uses a beryllium diaphragm, like the TAD TD-2002. They're pricey though. ...
