Upgrade Bug for 3 way Active Open baffle
« on: 15 Dec 2012, 05:31 am »
So,

My first foray into OB went great , Now time to get little upgrade as i got some extra funds in few weeks.


Currently I have

AMps

     Amps                                                                     Driver

1)  B&K 200 W powering                                    Eminence Alpha 15a   < 160 Hz

2) B&K 125 W                                                     Eminence beta 12LTA  from 160 to 3Khz

3)Sure 15W Class D Amp                                    Neo3     from  3khz and up


 And i did an experiment and i had an Rotel Amp  and Gainclone amp though different power rating and i can humbly say change of AMP makes a HUGE difference in the sound....

So my first change has been already implemented i was able to get a Acoustic elegance IB15 inch woofer  so eminence alpha will be replaced.

For mids i am confused between Greg (studiotech) copy of two mid  Neo10s or accuton  and for  Tweeter i am really looking fwd for RAAL ones now( anyone selling any yet)...

main question is what amp to use  as three amps change shown me huge difference ( no measurement) ....

i am either thinking to go towards Digmoda 525 ( will sell my DCX 2496 right now) again Greg copy....or some really Nice Class A amp like  ( Used Mcintosh , Krell ,mcnormack  7 channel amp etc) again looking for recommendation don't want to spend just the heck for spending...
