Thanks Gary! These have exceeded my expectations in more than a couple of areas so far. I'm pretty pleased.

These are awesome. I want to make some frugalhorns someday for sure.

Here's my mini Jordans (really early Mark Audios I believe) with bass bins. The are driven by a big old stand alone sub amp.

Visaton B200 full range with Eminence Alpha 15 in H Frame. Bi amped with 2A3 SET on Visaton and dual plate amps on Alpha 15s (many thanks to those who helped me out):

The Alphas are a good choice.

Time for some surgery on those B200s.

You know I've thought about it, but haven't pulled the trigger. It's that much of an improvement?

An old vacuum tube works well as a phase plug.

Not really... all those grids & plates & wires rattling around.

Works for me and I don't sell either.

Are dual concentrics allowed? I dunno. I see lots of whizzer cones so...

Here's my 15" Tannoy Golds:

it's probably the separate voice coil and XO network (as opposed to contour / notch filtering sometimes employed in "single driver" systems) that would be the line in the sand, but none the less, gorgeous vintages boxes those

i know i have posted pics of these on this forum, but not in this thread. there are decware modded fostex fe206e's in oris 150 horns. 300hz on up. from 80-300hz, are 15" fostex pro-audio woofers stuck inside modified klipsch lascala bass-bins. below 80hz are a pair of wintage megawoofer'd vmps larger subs. several low-power tube amp choices on the oris' - almarro a205a mkll, akai m8 r-2-r tapedeck amps, wintage electorhome amp, and two custom home-brew amps, one w/6v6, the other w/el84's. the lascala's get either a ~25wpc gainclone or a ucd180 amp. the subs get a pair of electrocompaniet aw75dmb's... x-over is deqx 2.6 pdc. (the tad/pioneer ribbon tweet shown in the pics has never been used w/this system.)

BLH with Fostex Fe207E. Thinking about adding Heil AMTs to help with the upper frequency range.
Or maybe I will bypass this step and build a new BLH but with the Lowther PM5.

kctess5 · « **Reply #137 on:** 29 Oct 2012, 06:04 am »

Here we go... I've got quite a few things to put up

Aiko BLHs- my main system:
Fostex FE108e Sigma

My old main system:

Desktops for my brother:

Desktop monitor for a friend:
Swans Tweeter + Fostex FW168HR

Garage speakers:
Dayton ND105?

Home theater speakers (go behind cloth so you can't see them...):
Mark Audio 10.2s

I feel like I am missing something but close enough... Hope y'all enjoy!
