I'll Bet You Noticed - I Sure Have
#78

Cornwall and some other speakers has 34Hz-20kHz response with 4db at the ends.
One might say it is not that great in the base department but then I like what I hear. I know some people buy center woofer when using Cornwall (which was designed as a cent`er speaker for Klipschorns itself) but them having a 15" woofer, I hear no lack of base. I am pretty sure I could gain some more base by deploying a separate woofer but then I am not sure I need it as I quite like what I hear.


As for electrolytic in crossovers, I am not sure how they work there long term at all as they have to handle AC which they are not supposed to handle. I think there is the same problem with Philco 38-690 which had 1uF electrolytic in series with twittersl; I remember us here discussing that. It is not even about them being worse caps for this purpose than some other caps, it is just that they are not even supposed to be used in this circuitry by definition. Unles of course one uses non-pol ones, but then there are better options.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
