Hi Ian, all, I do not believe that I had mentioned my project in my responses herein, that had been sort-of disclosed here:...

One does not need horns to attain the necessary dB and "jump factor." In fact, I believe that the proper cone driver will provide more "jump factor"...

And where would one even look to find these drivers anymore? Maybe here... ...

Hi Rob, I think the argument of digital versus an analogue is not an argument at all. It comes down to how your overall system sounds to you?...

"Carver" has become a dirty word in my household. How might a Hafler 101 compare with a Crown Straight Line One? The Crown SL-One has become my...

DerekTheGreat, JBL M2 is capable of about 123db with limited power compression and there is no reason to think 4367 will produce less as they use...

We appreciate you chiming in on your project. Detailed discussion of your project is best moved to a new thread. Some measurements of the 2216nd...

Hi Rob (sebackman), thank you for your response and specifically for confirmation that the 5006815 is a 1,5" throat wave-guide. And no, I will...

Hi mefisto, Easy part first, the 5006815 is a 1,5" throat waveguide, so that is plain wrong. I have a bunch of them here. The bolt pattern on the...

Hi Rob (sebackman), thank you for your response and the link to the measurement data. I will certainly look at the data, the problem is, I am...

mefisto, if you look at the data files (pls see below) you can see how low you can go with each driver on each horn. All the raw data is there. No...

Hi Robh3606, thank you for your reply. As I am not as knowledgeable as the forum members (hence my search for a wave-guide/driver combination...

I have done a 700Hz crossover point in my DIY Passive "M2" I was pushing it a bit but I got the best summation @ 700 and was only about 50Hz lower...

A lot of consumer HiFi electronics was bad in terms of transparency in the 70’s and 80’s as they hadn’t mastered how to make something solid state...

This was me. Picked that up from the older folks who were kind enough to give me some pointers as I was starting out in my audio journey. 'Yeah,...

I understand.

From the measurements I've seen this thing doesn't compress even at 102 db. Who knows at what point it compresses but this thing has more dynamics...

I'll share my story with the 4367 from Jul 2022."The other day I want to my local Revel dealer, US Tube Audio in Scottsdale, AZ. I was able to listen...

Hi Rob, I had some time to look closely at your measurements posted earlier in the thread. A few thoughts for users at home contemplating these...

Hi dn92, thank you for your reply. I know about Athos Audio, I even corresponded with a gentleman who was contemplating ordering from them, but...

I have posted some insightful links to interviews with recording engineers who’s careers have spanned analogue, modern digital and Atmos. Perhaps...

It's easier to demonstrate off axis using an RTA, a protractor, and piece of string. I was easily able to easily do 5 degree increments with mine: ...

Good point. When I set this up I will create a new thread specifically for the topic. Widget

and ... now those infinity 2000As are sold/gone - so, happy wife, and more room in the house for the JBLs! (In truth, she's never complained). I'd...

You'll have far more flexibility extending the bass depth and volume to your liking by combining the sub with the L5s than you would have with the...

I think this will work out pretty good with the L5s. As soon as you recommended them I wondered what the difference was between the L5 and L7. So I...

Hey Widget, We should probably make a new thread on your DSP endeavor. I have had the opportunity to test many DSP and nowadays they are silent...

Hi mefisto, I don't know what could work beyond the JBL M2, 4367 and the VTX wave guides. Sorry can't help there. Do ask for specific measures...

While I understand your desire to make these work as well as they can for you, had I known your expectation was to have the dynamics of the L300 on a...
