Save money on Speaker wire Direct Drive- Bevridge
Posted by AJ on April 29, 2016 at 19:37:21:
I finally received my direct drive amp from Roger Modjeski for my Beveridge Model 3 speakers.
This amp gets rid of all transformers to the line sources and provides the High Voltage Polarizing B+
First order filter right on the amp to operate the line source above 150hz and my stereo subs overlap and cross down from there.
I get rid of the entire HV multiplier and step up transformer in the base:
And connect direct to the line source with High Voltage silicone wire:
Very nice early experimentation; really makes the panels very dynamic and the energy on the top end is definitely airier over what I believed to be a very revealing system before.
Will report back as I continue to balance it ... definitely worth the wait from Modjeski who was probably the only person capable and willing to pull this off - hat's off to him.
