another midhorn in the making

[MartinV56]

Wowowow Marvin56!!!

i'm a HORNy guy myself and your horn set up looks great. i'm so excited i cant help asking too many questions:

1) who did your horns?

2) what was the wood used

3) naka biamp ka ba?

4) what are the amps used? who made the amps?

5) what are the crossover points?

sorry if i sound like a dog in heat. ganda kasi set up mo, eh. Kongratz uli!

Thanks Guys

My latest project - a simple 3-way system


driver complements are: great plains 414 woofers, altec 902 for mids, and still unknown tweeters (the owner is undecided yet as to what tweeter to use). tested the speaker last saturday using my altec 802d (similar to 902 but with alnico magnet). cut at 800hz, the horn with the 802 can output satisfying high frequencies already that may eliminate the need for a dedicated tweeter.

thanks for looking.

Another masterpiece, Larry!

How does the great plains 414 compare to the original?

[bangyay]

Ganda naman nito! Am also planning on getting GPAs. Ano pala footprint nito? Parinig naman sir!

thanks Dan. Can't say yet as the great plains woofers are brand new and still has to be broken-in. but like your altec 414, they match in terms of efficiency as you don't have to use a lot of attenuation for the mids. all i can say is that i'm really amazed by what the 414 can do in the right cabinet. nice bass and low mid. you have proven this already. no need for a subwoofer for most types of music.

ganda sir larry, smaller than an onken enclosure?

sir,

the speaker is resting on the floor with 12" x 12" tiles when the picture was taken. it's around 17x21" i think.

John, fix your sched na so you can hear one of larry's creations. Or maybe two since Ramon (amonv) also lives nearby.

dan,

just finished tuning these speakers at the owner's new music room. i was not able to bring my camera so i just posted an old picture.


the electronics are now entirely different and is not depicted in the picture. the set-up is now bi-amped using a mcintosh ss amp for the woofers and a pair of cayin 845 tube amp monoblocks for the mid-hi. xover is a driverack digital xover. same altec 291 mid drivers as yours in a pair of le cleach horns. you should listen to this. but i warn you - you may end up looking for a mcintosh amp.

sir,

you'll need a special lathe machine to spin big wood blocks.
