marchel said:Hello peterbrorsson ,
Do you know where we can order the sonido drivers? Can we oerder them directly?
Do you know the conversion rate into US dollar from the prices on the pricelist?
BTW, Are they really cheap, Is that also a joke?
Hi Marcel!
Yes, shouldn't be a problem ordering from Hungary. But check if you have to pay VAT depending country you live in!
I use this converter:

Oh my bad English, I meant real value for money spent. Joke is on me!
I have been in contact with Sonido about their amplifier today. When asking about prices, they said that the pricelist on their home page is out of date. They will send a new one to me soon.

Is there something alnicos can do than neos can't?
A magnetic field is a magnetic field, nothing more nothing less. Its all dependant on energy at a given point. The VC could care less how the energy is generated but only reacts to the forces of the electromagnetic field generated by the incoming sine wave and the opposing magnetic field. The only exception is focused magnetic fields in which the energy is concentrated at a given distance/shape from the permanent magnet.

I would seriously consider this driver if:
it delivered exceptional fine detail.
it has T/S characteristics allowing a simple cabinet.
it was resistant to breakup at high volumes.
has an impedance curve that is nice to amplifiers.
otherwise sensible people started gushing about it.
From what I've gathered about people telling RonC about magnetic fields is like telling an Innuit how to make a snowball. If Ron wasn't such an amicable fellow this might have been quite entertaining.

...and suggesting such about Nelson is, well, er... Oh, please. Also, what do you mean by "entertaining"?
Sorry, perhaps it would be best if no members offered up their understandings in these discussions, in fear they may be beaten down by those who are considered more knowledgeable by others.
Personally, I may have considerable knowledge in a specific field; however, I would not resent alternative/additional views. Hell, I'd like to think that I welcome them... part of the processes of understanding and innovation.
But then again, I've always tended towards the iconoclastic and questioned authority, experts, and traditional 'evidence'... s#!t, I am starting to sound like a researcher.

From what I understand alnicos are less sensitive to flux modulation, and is said to be one reason fore the "good vintage sound"
Farraday rings etc was develloped to do the same with ordinary magnets
Underhung I understand has good properties in that respect too
Sadly it has been "forgotten" in favour of sensitivity
It appears like many new speaker designs with neo magnets doesnt use farraday rings, fore whatever reasons
They also say that once you have heard a good field coil driver, you will never look back

without checking - I can't say that all drivers have ( or not ) published curves in pdfs download-able from www.sonido.hu .....
but - you can always contact Mr. Varga ........ he's more than willing to answer all questions ;
it really doesn't matter are you their customer or not - they really love their work .
