These:
I bought them, in fact, a friend of mine boight them for me, but the speakers remained in the Paris area in his apartment. In the meantime friend moved to another country (job) and did not have the time to get back to deal with the speakers. Didn't want to ship them, me too. So we are awaiting some convenient moment (his holidays) to arrange their retrieval...

When you build these OB's with almost no baffle for the woofers do you add equalization for the woofers?
Let's not destroy ZM's thread, we should continue this here (but I'm very busy... answers will come there tomorrow or so): https://www.diyaudio.com/community/threads/my-open-baffle-journey.394806/post-7243560

No, let’s take it off the rails completely…….with other amps….😂😂😂😂😂
The last two days I’ve done a very long shootout between my S.B. and my XA-25 (hey, don’t judge me, I bought it before Choky got the 252 design done.)
The Singing Bush absolutely delivers the detail that the XA25 does WHEN it is driven directly by one of my dacs. In fact, the two SIT amps that I have deliver “ a spectacular wrap around the head thing” as long as they are directly driven. Not even a buffer (in my system) can be in the chain or it ruins the spookiness of the SIT. With my XA-25 I can have a buffer / line stage and it still delivers its epic soundstage. The SB is much closer to the XA than I would have thought and certainly is its equal when I use it properly in my system. I really had to figure that out before I heard the SIT “magic”. It has refinement and tonality in spades and when driven directly rides that very fine line between smoothness and leading edge attack that I did not hear when used with my buffer / gain structure. I’m lucky because I have multiple toys to drive my amps with so I was able to quickly find a combo that allows Alex’s design to certainly match an authentic Pass product, which of course these amps have very different distortion profiles.
I have two pairs of th sits waiting....like I need another, and pretty sure I am going to add F8. Anyone have both PoP and F8 out there?
Vix, funny you mention that because I’m thinking about dusting off my hotrod DCB1 because it is also the only thing (or passive) that doesn’t destroy the “magic” with my two SITs.my uber, (ASR approved 😂😂😂😂😂j, performing Schiit Kara in buffer mode almost destroys it.
Interesting. I'm wondering how Iron Turtle would perform in that regard. Keep talking myself into that one!

in whichever context (either Iron Pumpkin or Tatanka) ....... simply delivers
but, one need to know own taste and preferences, to count on fact that none of those is having specific flavor
in layman terms - if you need Sugar, search for it somewhere else
I can confirm from experience: Iron Pumpkin is like a measuring instrument, pure and unadulterated. Simply magnificent.
I was wondering more about the "spectacular wrap around your head thing" that ggetzoff was talking about than sugar.
