My New Audio Nirvana Drivers

[alazira]

Thanks Bud. Actually i was considering the Fostex F17 or B&G Neo 3pdr (dipole option) but I'm not sure either one would be a good choice or not. I guess the real question would be what makes a decent match to the AN15 without costing an arm and a leg. The Seas 27TB DXT in the small wave guide looks interesting to. With my AN12's even though they do the highs nicely I still get the feeling that just a touch more air up the the stratospheric highs would be a good thing.

I suppose you're lucky to have this problem. I just did a hearing test here
Hearing Test - high frequency sounds measure hearing loss
To my dismay I discovered I can only hear up to 14kHz. OTOH this seems to match the range of the AN15.

Not a problem alazira, you can still hear from 20 Hz to 14 kHz and luckily, for you and I, that's where the vast majority of why we, allegedly at least, perform this diy audio thingy.

I found that really high stuff sounds like my spider sense is going off.

FYI melonhead says he has gotten himself banned, so the life may slowly leak from this party.

 

[norman bates]

banned ?

what's this about ?

He upset some of the Mods over some comments. Some took it more seriously than intended and he got banned. He had just come of a suspension. An appeal has been made by other members, but does not seem to have gone anywhere. I would assume this is the end of this thread, unfortunately.

Banned for what???? Such a pity. This has been one of my favorite threads, exploring what the AN15's could do and looking at match ups for sub support and ultra highs.

 

[Moderation Team]

Banned for what????

Sockpuppeting. A 2nd offence. Serious breach of the rules. He was given a warning the 1st time.

Whinning about moderation is another.

 

[Scottmoose]

Hmm. Once is bad enough. Twice is just asking for it.

 

[Octavia]

sorry i have no idea what sock puppeting is

 

[buzzforb]

Whinning does not seem to be a major offense on any level but speaking poorly of others, when they can offer no defense, does.
Sockpuppeting is logging in under another name or identity as a way of avoiding detection. Melon did this and it is against forum rules.

 

[oon_the_kid]

Just out of curiousity, what was his other identity? Just wondering if i had crossed path with him on some other occassion


Oon

 

[buzzforb]

Didnt do it but a couple of times, i think. I forget thd name.

 

[norman bates]

rules are rules.

Too bad though.

His measurements really confirmed all my number crunching for open baffles.

And I'd imagine David Dicks should thank him. The viewer ship of this thread alone should have boosted an15 sales.

If anyone want's to get in touch with melon privately, just PM me and I will provide an email, that he has agreed to contacts on.

Melon should apologise and come back

 

[ra7]

Melon should apologise and come back

+1

 

[chrisb]

Melon should apologise and come back

+1

only if he follows the full 12 step program - it starts with

"hello, my name is Melon, and I'm a sockpuppet"

all snarcasm aside, as anyone married for a number of years can attest an honest mea culpa can go a long way to mending things

forgive - but never forget - and oh yah, sleep on the couch for a while, dear

 

[buzzforb]

I want Melon back as much as anyone, but i dont see him apologizing. Perhaps for breaking the rules, but not for razzing mods. I think he assumed that being adults, they would not be so sensitive. As for sock puppeting, he has told me that he created other account mainly to contact jason and mods aboutlength of suspension. Hedidnot post unti either last day or couple hours befor end of suspension. A violation for sure, but worth suspension. Come on. He is my friend. Forgive me ifichoose to defend him. I have interacted with a coupleofthemods, and have found them to be goodpeople. This is not personal,but i dont understand the suspencion.

dunno what he said under the hood , but he was sentenced first time sort of selectively

I'm not dsputing the rules (I'm admin on my own forum , so I understand the drill) , but fact is that several of us were in same mess , while just MH was sentenced

for me - serving as Admin and Mod , lesser problem are guys having fun , than Idiots and dyslexic ones ;

dyslexic strictly as behavior , not as illness , worth sympathy and helping .

me, as biggest Idiot and dyslexic around here (I'm blaming my lack of bad memories) , I think I can say that we have some around here , unfortunately
