Neopolitin dMar-Ken7

For those thinking ice cream, these are Neopolitan stranded bamboo plywood, some 60% stiffer than "regular" bamboo plywood.

JRace,
Very nice. Can you describe the difference in sound you get from the dMar-Ken7 and Frugel-Horn-MK3?

Frugel - Able to hit the lower bass notes with better authority
dMar-Ken7 - More detailed depth of soundstage and slightly wider in presentation.

Otherwise there is some slight HF differences (Frugel seems smoother with high-hats and 'shimmering' sounds). this could be due to either
a) more time in the frugels = more break in??
b) the frugels are slightly angled putting my ears slightly off axis (vertically) in comparison to the dMar-Ken7's.

I would take either based on sound alone. Although I could live without a sub and the Frugels, not so with the dMar-Ken7's.

Dave,
Nice pictures of the various speakers. I find the balcony railing behind the speakers pictured to be very attractive as well!!!

Best Regards,

We sure appreciate the exra room it gives, and Zabu likes that we've jerry-rigged a cover and regualrily sleeps there.

AER MKI's in some resonating test mules.

Will be swapping out a few drivers into these cabinets over the next few months. Should be fun.

Can see my FE103's in the background as well.

How do you form the sides? That shape fasinates me, please keep us updated.

Hi.
I am new here so I think its rigt to post a pic. of my fullrange system.

doucanoe · « **Reply #118 on:** 26 Dec 2011, 02:33 pm »

Audio Nirvana Super 6.5's in a @1 cu-ft BR cab running full range with TL low frequency under 50Hz. I'm bi-amping with 2A3 for the AN's and SS for the LF. I just got these up and running downstairs about a week or so ago. The test baffles on the upper cabs are going to be replaced to match the LF cabs. The more I listen to them, the more I am really liking what I am hearing.
