In Reply to: RE: Try a driver explicitly designed for voice .... posted by hitsware on April 08, 2014 at 19:07:16
Hi and thank you very much indeed for your valuable advice
I completely agree with your statement that i quote
This is exactly my point and if i am not wrong also the point of the Spendor speakers designer.
Once you get the voice very right the rest comes together.
Ok ... maybe another woofer for the low end and a tweeter for the high to complete the bandwidth.
Thank you for the suggestion of a driver.
I am sure i will do some DIY soon.
As i said my intention is to make a speaker maybe limited in freq but HE and very good with voices.
And then add something down and something above it.
I think that this approach is sane.
Kind regards,

That's true. My speakers are high sensitivity, and my system is absolutely flat from 20Hz-20kHz. They sound perfect with music, and as far as voices are concerned you literally cannot tell a person speaking on the TV from a person speaking in the room. IME if a speaker doesn't faithfully reproduce the spoken word it's not faithfully reproducing music either.
" my system is absolutely flat from 20Hz-20kHz"
That's truly amazing.
I've lived a long time but I guess not long enough. I've never heard of a speaker system that is truly flat 20Hz-20kHz.
You must use some unbelievable drivers.

Hello and thanks for the valuable reply.
You say " That's true. My speakers are high sensitivity, and my system is absolutely flat from 20Hz-20kHz. They sound perfect with music, and as far as voices are concerned you literally cannot tell a person speaking on the TV from a person speaking in the room.
IME if a speaker doesn't faithfully reproduce the spoken word it's not faithfully reproducing music either "You have won my complete attention. Especially when you state
" you literally cannot tell a person speaking on the TV from a person speaking in the room " ... sublime !
Looking at your designs (truly exceptional I must say sincerely) here:

which one you would rate the best for this task of speech reproduction ?
They are all equally good ?
Very impressive speakers indeed. Congratulations !
I knew i need a bigger listening room ...
Thanks a lot again.

My personal HT setup is TLAH L/R, SLA CurveArray center, Table Tuba sub.I don't use horn loaded mains because they're a bit large for my room.
Thanks again.
Very interesting designs indeed.
I would guess that drivers selection is quite critical to achieve top performance
I will read your site carefully during the weekend

Not so much with a line array. You can find quite inexpensive drivers with good response, though they may lack high sensitivity and power handling. Use enough of them and both high sensitivity and power handling are realized.
