What number and kind of speakers do you have at home

[scottjoplin]

Perhaps he could sell a few and bite the Eikona bullet

 

[chrisb]

No doubt and I was including you in the Dave #'s as without you how many complete pairs would he have?

true enough -

Perhaps he could sell a few and bite the Eikona bullet

I'm with you there.

 

[suzyj]

Hmmm. Let's see.

1 pair Infinity RS-5b's. 10" polycone woofers, 3" dome mid, EMIT ribbon tweeters - no longer in use, but were my main speakers for many years
1 pair Infinity 1500's. 8" papercone woofers, 1" dome tweeters - used in my garage because they make a lot of noise.
1 pair Ariels. 2 x Vifa P13WH 5.25" woofers, Scan Speak D9500 tweeters, active crossovers - my main speakers in the loungeroom presently.
1 pair P13WH 2 way "diyAudio reference" speakers, with Vifa D27TG45 tweets - http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/25590-diyaudio-reference-speaker-project.html#post300430 - used in my bedroom.
1 pair "noisePlank" Vifa TG9 fullrange transmission lines - used in my accommodation at work.
1 pair "noiseUnit" SB12PFC woofer, Vifa NE19VTS tweeter baby transmission lines with active crossovers - used as PC speakers in my study.

Plus a couple of TG9's, six SB12NRX's, a couple more NE19VTS's. I have a few more rooms in my house that need speakers.

I'm nowhere near as bad as some.

Way too many to list.

[planet10]

must have literally hundreds, I'm sure he's not tallied them for years.

Probably not many more than 100, but before i let you trash the less interesting oes many 100s.

I have 18 pair functional, not including subwoofers, of which there are 5.

Drivers- I'm likely over 100 pairs of drivers.

Chris, any experience with SB17 or 15CAC ceramic cones and how do they compare to the rest NRX and NAC. Supposedly CAC is way more detailed than NRX (some say it's boring) but I'm worried if there isn't some splashiness added

Pliedtka,

The SB15NRX is special, its been used as a fullrange with no harshness up top (for reference, my hearing rolls off past 16khz )

The SB15NAC is similar but more refined.

These sound like paper but cleaner than the NRX.

We have compared the SB17CAC to the SB17NRX and found the CAC to be more detailed, dynamic and more "coherent" if thats even possible.

The NRX is slightly comparatively splashy and yes sounded very boring BEFORE BREAK IN. I heard the SB17NRX again after it was used for a few weeks and it was decent.

Chris, any experience with SB17 or 15CAC ceramic cones and how do they compare to the rest NRX and NAC. Supposedly CAC is way more detailed than NRX (some say it's boring) but I'm worried if there isn't some splashiness added

 

[Pano]

Hundreds I'll tell ya.....Hundreds! Well over 700!

I can vouch for that. I've seen them and helped compile the list!

 

[Cal Weldon]

Does that mean I've been relegated to 3rd? Any lower and I'll be outta the medals.

 

[Robbintip]

My count stops somewhere over 100. Slowly getting rid of the ones I don't use, never used or will never use again.

 

[Cal Weldon]

Drivers or finished speakers?

I did a recount. Up from 32 in January, I have 35 finished pairs now. Just about 36 but the owner would not agree to my almost criminal offer. Too bad, it was a mint pair of AR 318ps. Wouldn't accept 50 bucks, can you imagine?

Hey, they were dusty!
