@MRJAZZ... I have a tendency to play rather loud and have not had any problems with the highs becoming harsh. In fact I use DSP to bring the highs above 10kHz up 3dB. I think it will all depend upon what amplifier you are feeding the 2050s. I am still very satisfied with these drivers on my...
I also did a demo in my home and thought his Class-D amp was quite good. While I am a SET 300B guy I also find it odd how people are hostile towards anything new.
Nice! A little in process wiring is a good thing while tuning in the system. I too use miniDSP but am using 2 of the 4x HD units since the processors on the HDs are better & faster. 1 DSP to control the horns only and 1 DSP for the base drivers and subs. Each DSP is driven from their own...
All... I have been using horn speakers for the last 10 years after making the SET-Horn to High Power-Dynamic speakers trip a couple times over the decades. I recently changed the drivers on my BD-Design ORIS horns to the need Celestion AXI2050 and holy crap these things are outstanding! So...
Hi all. I had the opportunity to demo these amps in my system for a week comparing them to my Coincident Frankenstein 300B monoblocks. Note that my system is bi-amplified so the application we are talking about here is 300Hz - 20kHz so I can not give input on low frequency performance. I...
Revolution? Well my take is revolution is maybe a bit strong depending on the region of the world you live. In Japan absolutely and continues quite strong today. Here in the US there was some resurgence about every 10-15 years from the 60's to now. I personally have done the entire circular...
I demoed both the 5000 and the Danali (not Everest) in my system and for me the Shunyata was better. However, from what I understand the one you prefer largely depends upon the power at your home. In my case my power was steady but very noisy which is a good match for the Shunyata but if your...
