Re: Amp for 4pi speakers
It looks like you've done a very good job already, and I have no doubt you'll tweak your system further to make it even better still.
Congratulations!

Amp for 4pi speakers
Hello
Thanks to Wayne, I've built a set of 4pi speakers a few years ago.
However, the room acoustics of our living room are far from ideal.
We have an L-shaped room and this is the best aesthetic speaker setup:
The 4pi speakers aren't toed-in, ...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
I agree with Barryso......the improvement is not subtle.
I would try them approx. where your white boxes are in your pics. Right next to (and behind) your mains. Sometimes outside of them is better, but yours look pretty wide apart.
The trick here is h...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
You should try Wayne's multi sub trick. It takes things up a level or two.
I've been playing with flanking subs and a distributed (rear) sub with a pair of 2 Pi Towers. The addition of the subs, setup as Wayne suggests, takes the sound quality up quit...

Re: For Sale 4Pi Speakers
That's true.
And still they'd not likely be as good overall. The dynamics and uniform directivity are hard to beat.
Are you running flanking subs? It really was the icing on the cake for me lol.
I've had a few different types of loudspeakers over the...

Re: Is a home theatre system really necessary?
You might expound upon what you mean by "actual home theater system."
My personal definition is any audio/video system that is setup to play movies. Many of them double as music playback systems for their owners.
So from this definition,...

Re: 7pi vs 8pi
Facing the woofer towards the corner allows it to be acoustically close to the corner. This allows the walls to act as a source boundary - something like vertical ground planes - rather than as reflectors.
The goal is to make the sound source(s) act ...

Re: Will it work? Audio in conservatorie?
You can use seven π cornerhorns with distributed multisubs or four π mains with flanking subs and possibly one or two distributed multisubs. Either setup will work for you in that room, and I think they'll sound pretty good. I always prefer constant di...

3Pi & 3Pi Sub Plans request
Dear Wayne,
After thinking carefully for a while, I decided that I want to go with 3Pi and 3pi Subs in flanking subs config as you recommended.
Can you please share with me the plans?
Thank you a lot.

Re: Horn mouth vs. front baffle or "speaker cone"
I definitely understand what you've described. Geddes suggests placing one sub high in the air like that, specifically to deal with modal smoothing in the vertical dimension.
My guess is your troublesome mode is probably in the 60-80Hz range. Partly...
