Regards, Coen Title: Re: Bert von Orelo? Post by: PeterSt on May 24, 2014, 06:40:40 am That should be the Backes & Müller I think. And well, at least that one looks good. The Von Langa ? hmm.
The Von Langa (not the very same version) emerged around the same time as the Big Orelo. Maybe the NSA threw some designs to the respecitive creators. ;) Backes & Müller ? Not sure whether that's a commercial speaker (yet). But I never saw it before. Thanks for sharing Coen. Peter Title: Re: Bert von Orelo? Post by: CoenP on May 26, 2014, 09:05:51 pm There is no substitute for square meters of loudspeaker surface when you're after a loud and low distortion bass. If you want it fast and clean you need an Open baffle (or giant horn), it looks like a natural evolution of speakerdesign.
Both loudspeakers probably cross over at 1.500 Hz or more with the little horn and ribbon (AMT?). There must be a compromise in the midrange. No doubt the field coils in the WvL will sound very fast and competent in the lower mids but keeping up to that high... Regards, Coen |
