Help to choose the ultimate midrange driver

[Viper_user]

It should be good with both of them i think both are big drivers.
Personally i dont have any bass under 36Hz but for music its ok.

You can slide this to experience when the speakers go silent
Also you can test your upper hearing drop out 🙂
Online Tone Generator - generate pure tones of any frequency

I think you can just Google the
If it is filternet that is the problem, maybe use open vpn

Is this it? Rammstein - Los (Full Band Version) [XXI Version] (Official Audio) - YouTube

 

[Viper_user]

GM it's the wrong version. It should be this recording
LOS, a song by Rammstein on Spotify

Yeah, drop out is right, at 74 can barely hear the 12 kHz tone @ 100%. 🙁

OK, thanks! There was several to choose from.

GM 12 is not bad at all for that age.

I have run a lot of HiFi-test on my girlfriend and then we found out she only hear up to 8kHz. Now her opinion is not much of a help 🙄

I don't think it's that bad. It's only the top octave and the more important stuff happens before that.

Great input
thank you everyone
i am still reading all 20 pages over and over

I learned that my midrange should cover at least 300-3000 hz, it makes it a very important patr in the system

I also learned much about the different driver properties

This is Active and can be changed anytime, therefore its is very good that all drivers have a wide frequency range so it can be modified

The system contains:

Dayton Audio BTR01 Bluetooth-reciever 777 sek
behringer dcx2496le dbx 1 800 sek
Behringer CX3400 Super X Pro 500 sek
Behringer A800 1 600 sek
Behringer A800 1 600 sek
Behringer A800 1 600 sek
the t.amp E4-130 2 000 sek
Beyma TPL200 2 pcs 9 000 sek
Acoustic elegance td15m
Acoustic elegance ib18ht 14 000 sek
100 meter cable 2x2.4 1 000 sek
xlr cables and connections 1 000 sek
Cabinets with paitning 1 000 sek
Flexunits 2x4" 4 600 sek

42 477 sek = 4 835,20


leftovers, maybe they can make a system for the spa in the basement =) I also have 2 x eminence kilomax 18 since many years

2 x de250 2000 sek
2 x horns 1000 sek
2 x visaton ti100 2000 sek
2x15" somtak 1000 sek
boxes 500 sek

6 500 sek = 739 usd

Value for money or not?=)


Everything should be here mounted ans playing in 2 weeks

Great tune generator
I dont know if i am in phase:/

The oscilloskop is Hard to trust

I take the easy way out with speakers and go full range drivers.
Saves money and weight with traditional LC crossovers.

What oscilloscope would you use?

Regarding volume control

I get what you mean, maybe i can reduce some Buzz if i turn the amps down a little bit?

What do you think of a tube preamp?

 

[Viper_user]

I don't know much about tube pre amps, if it's really make any differ. Maybe for the mids ..would make it less hard.

You should listen to pre amp at max from time to time, if so the amps are good trim'ed for low noise.

 

[digitalthor]

Why a tube preamp?
If you want a little so called "warmth" in the sound. Then just fiddle a little with the frequency response. Because that will in the end, be what is the main factor in percieved sound quality anyway.

 

[diyiggy]

... anf if a tube preamp is warm you can be sure it's a bad design...

 

[dahlenmarcus]

Well since the volume control came Up i figured it might just as well have tubes.

But i got it

Also i think the Common use of preamp is just before the amp and that would have been 7 channels?

Now to give the crossovers a better signal could be a Good thing, checking out options

 

[diyiggy]

I surmise you active setup being DSP the volume control is made in the digital domain and rule directly each channel (amp)...

 

[Viper_user]

Go for 2ch bal vol control or pre amp, 2496 LE-model have analog in. 6ch vol ctrl is for digital input machines.

 

[dahlenmarcus]

Got it

Viper: i checked out the One you showed me, seems Good Good but i really dont know what to look for

Might look into DACs ant BT recievers before i order

 

[dahlenmarcus]

Hello again 🙂

I am expecting delivery soon for the drivers.

In the meantime
Time to check out the electronics.

I use a bluetooth Link for the moment because i really like to have the system connected to Google home.

Do you guys have a suggestion how to connect the system without bluetooth?

From my knowledge
Option A.
Argon is introducing a Google home unit with dac that Will be connected with cable to DSP/filter
Maybe this Will due for a PRE amp/ volume control also?

Option B.
Find another Google assistant device with cable connection and connect it to a PRE amp

You should ask in the PC section of the Digital Line forum here, perhaps there are people and developers aware of domotic and devices compatibilities... 🙂

There are multimedia distros on Rpi that can rule dacs but I don't know about compatibility with an Alexia/Cortana/HeyGlouglou/etc device copatibility without a standalone channel on a pre... but do you really want a mic in your living room 😉 !

I was trying the attachment feature to show the progress but i guess i will try again. In a moment

Very happy with the flex unit, still waiting for the acoustic elegance drivers🙂
