In Reply to: Insane idea - Diatone P-610's in D'Appolito array + Raven R1??? posted by Dave VH on April 29, 2000 at 22:59:02:
But....They use NO X-Over on the Full-range units and only a HP on the tweeter. I suspect with the diatones 10k or 12k will be too low.
Also, R1 is rather dear.... Oh, yes, use the 16 Ohm Diatones while you are at it.
The Kondo Speakers use fairly narrow and deep Cabinet, but fit additional rounded "Wings" to the sides of the Cabinet, making it basically a very wide cabinet in the top, working around the Baffle loss issues at Lower Frequencies.
Kondo uses cone Tweeters BTW. The info on the net is extremely sketchy, there also no photo's, I have some morein rather poor copies at home. The Drivers are not Diatones BTW, but apparently Kondo San's own designs. He used to work with Diatones quite a few years back, so I suspect his Drivers are Dia's "on Steroids".

- Sounds like a plan. Some of the Audio Note Japan/Kondo speakers are not miles away from that.... - Thorsten 12:30:35 05/01/00 (0)
