Which wideband/FR sound great with Dean Martin?

freddi · 4th January 2007, 10:16 PM

what setups work well overall to lend credence to Dean's voice without bloat and "bark"?

None Freddie, Dean Martin sucks!

But seriously I'd think those old records would sound good as long as you use a valve amp.

Well Deans "trailers for sale or rent" will go down in history as one of the................uhhhhhhh.................songs of the past.

In reality i play my LPs off an old much modified AR belt drive manual TT and thru my SET. But i have to bypass the 1 ohm resistor that i use with the GCs. Old horns are the original Dallas (not the dallas II)with 208 sigma and ribbon tweets.
Some day i may actually build something for myself that i have designed.
I have been dinking with the Austin A166 and running some sims on a front conical horn/waveguide for 250 hz and up. So far its looking very good. Time to get the table saw and stuff out of storage.
