Pyramidal Cabinets for Crescendo Ribbon Horn Speaker System - Part 1

Pyramidal Cabinets for Crescendo Ribbon Horn Speaker System - Part 1

Today we received our new speaker cabinets. They are made of plywood. Overall finishing is excellent. Price is attractive, only $600 for the whole set. There are more than 20 colors to choose.

The woofers are in the front while the plate amps are at the back. Let's see how this pair will look like with the drivers.

PS: Another set of cabinets are made also for a customer. We will post some of their pictures later.

best_of_2010.jpg

This is a great way to kick off the new business year -- Enjoythemusic.com Blue Note award for the Tram2.

Credit to Enjoythemusic.com staff for putting aside the unsaid selling price hierarchy and awarding the Blue Note on performance alone.

That's integrity.

Fi For Flora - Matching Speakers

The last ingredient needed for our video-integrated home system is speakers.

Klaus Reck (Reckhorn) of Germany has been developing some rather unique speaker drivers for a couple years now, and they're done. Good timing. Last time he passed through Hong Kong he invited me to the factory to listen to the result of these too-cheap drivers in their 'cabinets'.

He's put a patent on these as they embody some 'outside-the-box' concepts:

Fi For Flora - Done! But I know What You're Thinking...

Fusion+b.jpg

Where's the pain?

We:
buy an Asus EB1501 netop
connect it to our flatscreen TV with the HDMI cable
Install the drivers and connect the Cleo USB DAC
10 minutes of tweeking settings in W7
install J River Media center v15.xxx
point it to our media library

done!

Can it be this easy and audio-good?
Audiophiles are used to pain, such as the kind only audiophiles know. And disappointment -- because it's never right the first time.

Instead all we get is easy. And convenience. And great looking user interface my wife and all the neighbors love and can use.
And understanding. I'm not sure I can get used to being understood...it's kind of an audiophile's private place.
And great sound (24/192 computer audio is The Great Leap Forward promised by digital so long ago).

Must Read Posting from Thorsten: State of the Union - Asynchronous USB DAC - Caveat Emptor

Folks,

Some questions that came way in recent times and some more observations of my own make me think that someone needs to give a short rundown that is easy to understand.

I hope I'll be able to keep this straight forward.

First, the combination of "Asynchronous", "USB" and "192KHz" seems to be the latest "must have", something we may not entirely innocent in, having announced probably the first shipping high end units.

At the same time there seems to be considerable confusion what "192KHz capable asynchronous USB DAC" really means.
