So, 2' out (rear of speaker box) from the short wall (13) listening along the longer room dimension (16)? I understand it's a rental, but where are they placed in the room? Where do you sit?
BTW, still no Don Allen(sp) website. How much power from those SET's, 2-3 watts or so?

cheers,

AJ

"BTW, still no Don Allen(sp) website."

Chances are he won't have one..... He doesn't really need one..... He has more work than he can deal with, due to solely word-of-mouth demand.....

"How much power from those SET's, 2-3 watts or so?"

Depends on the amp..... The unit at the condo is about 6 wpc..... Or about 4 dB above a 45 amp.

Remember, a 96 dB Hemptone powered by a 6-watt amp is equivalent to a typical 87 dB speaker powered by a 50-watt amp..... Sound great with symphonic works, and it is a condo..... Anything louder might bother the neighbors.

  I have something in the works that is in the size range of the Fritz. One small problem though. It will be 96db +/-2db average sensitivity , not "96db for tube audiophiles" like the hemp, with what +/- 10db amplitude distortion alone? So you may not like it. Or you may. To make matters even worse(?), the impedance will be flattened. Is this acceptable for tube "magic"? Or forget that idea and create some "excitement"?
  The other issue is that it can convert from dipole/cardioid bass to full ranged cardioid. Both would require the face of the speaker to be at least 3' out from the wall (4' recommended for dipole, hence my room questions) unless you want "audiophile" type sound (then you can place it anywhere, physics plays no roll). Any objections to a(n)(adjustable)powered bass section (yes I know there are neighbors, but there is also this thing call bass, which is present in recordings, very different from what you hear from the hemps resonating pipe/8" paper cone tweeter)?
  Your thoughts?
