    The second Outfox there looks like a Pioneer BOFU widerange. I like the striking orange and blue dyed ply.

    Little Diy Bookshelf

    Very good drivers, and one of my favorite domes. I would add between 0.5 - 1.0 ohms in series with the tweeter, right at the xover connection. BTW, use a sandcast resistor. I tried some MOX, and they added sibilance.

    Purifi PTT6.5PR radiator issue

    I've used Aleene's Tacky Glue for a good many driver repairs. I would use it for something like this. Dip a cotton swab in the glue and slather on one surface, place the surround and hold or clamp it with a binder clip.

    I understand the difference between electrical and acoustic filters. If I were them, I'd focus on the woofer breakup at 1.2k a little more. It is only 21dB down and should be closer to -40dB. Directivity should look good being a coaxial and well implemented.

    12th order filters? Normally 8th order is as steep as needed to eliminate any kind of blended handoff. I don't prefer xovers that steep as one driver stops and the other continues. It's better to blend and make them seamless.

    I have a Rock Concert or 2 as well. My grandmother gave them to me. Not sure where they are at the moment.

    Raven tweeters used to be about the only ribbons available. Don't know if I've ever heard a set.

    "… just about anyone could hear the difference." (Stereophile May 2025)

    Won't, or shouldn't? There is a difference in meaning. The cords sure measure different with a filter in them. That is a concrete fact. Measure one. Power filtration and regulation can change or lower the relative noise floor. More stout audio components with thicker metal panels can also...

    Are there any aesthetically beautiful subwoofers? (with photos)

    Mosquitos and fleas are food for other animals. Frogs and Bats load up on skeeters.

    There is likely a filter installed in the plug by the manufacturer. A lot of these power cables are not just power cables.

    3 Way bookshelf the easy way

    This is the same poster from over on DIYaudio that used traced files and AI to come up with a design. The thread ended up being locked when nothing more positive came from it. The OP called his design faultless, and was not open to potential improvements.

    Do you need high end speakers for rock and heavy metal?

    Nightwish - Dark Passion Play Special Edition with the symphony accompaniment is a very complex recording. When it is right, and Annette is in the right spot in the mix, this is while not an ultra-clean recording, it also includes a lot of tracks in the mix including a singing chorus. Only a...

    The Linaeum, Duopole, etc, are a ribbon style driver. The axis of direction is self waveguided via the diaphragm curls that also form the suspension. If there is a rear set of curls, there is equal response to both front and rear. The magnets sit inside the curls, and the central junction moves...
