Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: SET active versus passive biamplification

Steyr

I took a look at your website
to see what you design with...
The Seas W8 X2-08 (above graph)
looks like it could use some
decoupling to tame or dampen
the erratic frequency response.
The Seas X1-04 is not much better.
But a whizzer cone for HF ???
How retro of you 8^D Never heard
a whizzer that satisfied me.
But a Raal Ribbon for HF ...
that's more like it - AWESOME!
And not to mention the Fostex
FW800HS 31.5" woofer - impressive.
Definitely needs to stay away
from 500Hz like most sub drivers.

Your choice in drivers is expensive,
at ~$800 a piece for the Seas
and $3.5K for the sub driver.
And I thought $250 a piece was
alot for a Dynaudio tweeter !!!
I am sure they MUST have something
going for them at that price.
But the "normal" priced drivers that
most of us use would benefit from
bi-amping to get the best out of them.
