I hear wot you're saying Widget.

How much are the replacement diaphragms now?
I also like 2220's. Their cones are so much lighter than any of the 'ribbed' cones giving the impression of being more responsive (faster), and to my...
They are a very sweet driver but really belong on multi-cells, and crossed over at 800Hz+
Otherwise, best suited to home use off passive x-o's and a smallish valve amp.
I set up a pair for a mate,...
72 subs….
I wonder what these ones are?
That's 32 more than what I've used, and even THAT was just bowel disengaging. :blink:
…. but then again, they were Turbosound TSW-124 [24"]
Come to think...
Simplicity rules.....
I wish I could cut mine back to something more manageable, but that's just not gonna happen.
Anyway, very nice setup you have there. :)
Cheers all...
What should we be saying then?
How should the power handling of a speaker be expressed?
This is one of those tricky ones, just like dB when used to state SPL.
If I remember correctly, I think...
The 175's and the 2344 would be fine. Jeez, who wouldn't want a pair of those? ....regardless of their size. Like the ol' saying goes, "Big is Best".
The 3105 is the odd one out as even though it...
Russ,
The 175 would be good.
If you're budget minded, and while you're still experimenting, try and find a pair of 2370's cheap, and use them while you're waiting for a pair of "Baby Smith's" to...
Sorry Widget, I thought you had misread that I had written 2420 for 2402. :o:
I personally love the 2482's, so tight and rich for vocals, and I think that using either a 2420 or 2410, or even a...
.... but, but, that's why I said 2420's, not 2402! :o:
You could try putting some 2420's between the 2482's and the 2405's.
Sometimes a pair of 2420's can be got for less than a pair of 2402's, and the extra power handling is a bonus. :D
Plus the fact...
Yes, a very valid point. :)
140 degrees Horizontal x 40 degrees Vertical, when the slot is vertical @ 10KHz.
90 degrees Horizontal x 35 degrees Vertical @ 16KHz, and
65 degrees Horizontal x 30 degrees Vertical @ 20KHz.
I should elaborate. My slots are about 7 feet up, and I sit fairly close to my speakers. If I had them the right way, they'd focus straight over my head.
Maybe it might help if I should cut back...
Hmmmmm...... (deep thought)
Not meaning any disrespect, but yes you're right to a point Zilch, but I've found in past experience that what's on paper, may not necessarily always hold true.
It can...
Thank You Peter.....
Very impressive bit of insight. :)
I do it myself too!
Nothing unusual in that, if a wide dispersion is what you want.
One could ask the same question, "why do you mount horns horizontally and not vertically?"
Cheers. :)
ps:...
.... obviously a beginner.
It's OK, we all had to start somewhere. :blink:
Speechless....... :blink:
I personally feel these should come under the heading of 'Weapons of Mass Destruction"

Yes, it is a good poster but when I found it, the snails had got to it, and someone had it all laminated, holes'n all. Still looks good though.
I'm embarrassed to say, that if you look slightly left...
... too true.
I've spent the last week looking for a set of 3 x 2308 lenses that are hidden underneath it all somewhere!!!
:-(
What can I say??? (... my maid died???)
