It might be that a servo sub is the first "big" upgrade, and the analog filter to the mains in this video is great thinking.

Love my Rythmik FVX15. About to upgrade to 4x sealed for my dedicated home theater. I'm between the Rythmik G25HP and the JTR RS1. One thing that has been said (by Chris Brinhaver at PS Audio and Matthew Poes, among others) about servos is that the feedback mechanism is inefficient because the amp has to dedicate a lot of power to correcting the driver's motion. I'm wondering if anyone knows how much of a concern that actually is, given I'm aiming for clean performance with no compression at reference levels in 4500 cu ft. The CEA-2010 output numbers are actually higher on the G25HP than on the RS1, which makes me think this isn't a major concern.

Hi, Sir I love your explanation about this new breed of servo controlleb amp sub. W hen I first enter into these audio hobby,I always hear from local audiophile here in our place Toronto ,that if your sub didnt came from Velodyne...that means you are not getting the right bass.And Velodyne is synonimou with servo system sub as they always say. Ironically asVelodyne stop making their ULD SERIES the quality of their sub decline until it was sold to a german audio dealer.Ive got a simple questio,If you dont mind pls ,the servo system inside the RYHTMIC sub how does it differ from the servo system of VELODYNE sub. And also is there any plan for RYTHMIC to come out a DOWN firing sub...if not why? Great thanks

So if I was going to run these subs with the tripple towers and use a 8 inch point source driver, I can just run the point source in OB instead of running it in a TL box? Or do you think a TL would still benifit? Im guessing running the PS driver in OB would raise the x-over point and speed the driver up. I have industrial hearing damage and I can't hear past 12k and 10k is really where I listen to max so tweeters aren't really needed so a good 8" PS should do me for the highs.

REL sucks big time, huge time, compared to Rythmik like you cannot even FATHOM. you need to listen to the difference from a sub that you can ACTUALLY tune, to one you can't and is above 1K, like REL. they are coasting on a reputation and pure dogma. Their high tier is a different story, but for what you pay for a single , you instead get 2 (or more) open baffle GR subs and REL goes back to absolute stupid investment. So all that leaving your speakers full range for the sake of transparency and what not, BS. Seriously. It's a lousy argument. The sub bass on its own relieves the speaker woofers and lowers overall distortion for mid bass and midrange, depending of your speakers.

And how does it work to affect the crossover from the "mains" (towers or satellites) to the subwoofer(s)? Also, I can kind of see how using the controls on the back of the amp to flatten the responses, but I was lost on how the changes affect the output. In other words, if I change the "A" control, then what happens to "Z" on the output (driver/room) side? So confused... it's like I can see a shadow of a shape showing through a foggy day, but I really can't recognize what it is, much less see it clearly. Thanks for these vids.

I've also seen the power that a figure as yourself saying useful stuff like this has in the audiophile crowd overall. Folks are just negationists for the darn sake of it, but don't understand even what a cap does to the signal. It's just... Tiring.

@Mike Glavin This will be an alternative to my martin logans and rel combo. Pure Audio Project, Spatial Audio, Gr - Research Are leading the way in open baffle loudspeaker designs. Gr - Research offers the right application and synergy (open baffle subwoofer) for the aforementioned technology.

@Mike Glavin Thank you brother, Danny has open up a whole new avenue for me to explore. The aim is to accompany open baffle loudspeakers and subwoofer with the Audio research Classic range. I am not into ridiculing any manufacturers products, but i do want to utilise their products uniformly in what actully works. Bless my Brother!!!

What is a minimal measuring setup? What equipment, tools, software is needed to measure frequency response accurately and to get the most out of speaker placement, and subwoofer settings?

You will just be taking a room response measurement so you can get by with a lot of common measuring systems, REW comes to mind.

Why 6dB? 3dB is twice the power. Isn't the general rule of thumb that doubling cone area gives 3dB. Doubling wattage gives 3dB. Doubling cone area and power give 6dB. When you cross from 1 speaker to the other there is no additional power, just cone area, so why is it 6dB? If each driver is at 85dB at their -3dB point then when they crossover they should together play at 88dB, no?
@pliedtka
@pliedtka 2 жыл бұрын
Depends on phase between sub and mains. For in phase system at crossover point such as LR4, the level of each driver is -6dB to measure flat. However, the power response will -3dB at x-o.

P/COG ratio defines price to cost of goods. So woofer is tops $60 and amp $100 retail $950 makes it a book example of ripoff. Typicalky COG is 180-280% Higheat COG have cosmetics 300% or 350% for brands like Chanell...on 5th a enue... this COG is 590%, I suggest to engage shrink ( and not that termal wrap type).

Doesn't have anything to do with "old" or "new". And the second voice coil as a sensor is not new at all. It was used in the I.Q. System.One from 1990 for example. I doesn't make much difference by the way what type of sensor is used since almost any suitable sensor is so much more sensible and faster than the movement of the woofer. And don't fall for the micky-mouse-physics stating that the placement of the sensor would induce any type of latency. Try poking someone with a broom-stick. There will be no latency between you moving the stick on one end and the pokee receiving the poke 1.5 meters away from you. The voice coil is not a gummi-bear. It is ridig and a sensor placed 3cm away from the voice coil will still move at the very same time like the coil does.

I so wish GR-research made Servo Subs and Amps for car audio. No one makes servo subs for cars and SQ and SPL guys would buy it up. Many guys are building large 4 and 6th order bandpass boxes for SPL trying to get low end extension. While SQ guys are doing open baffle setups and transmission lines. All of which is to get the lows sounding right for them. If I could get a pair of servo 10s on a 3k rms amp I would jump on it.

Open Baffle car audio subs?

@@FOH3663 Yes & no. Some were doing that in the 1980s-1990s. In a car, they used the truck as the enclosure with a baffle under the rear window deck. In a wagon or van they would build a baffle wall somewhere behind the front seats so that the space behind the wall would be the enclosure. By "open baffle" in these cases, it just means the woofers were not in a typical sealed or ported wooden box. If you open the truck, or rear hatch/doors, you can see the woofers mounted in the baffle.

@@FOH3663 Search for IASCA Finals they are still doing open baffles and Transmission lines in competition to this day. Some cars will vent to the free air underneath the vehicle and transmission lines will often put the port ending in the center of the front of the vehicle so you do have all of your base coming from the rear. Another one that is more common today is small sealed enclosures in the dash or kick pod area with high excursion subs. Ima try and find a link, these are some really crazy car audio systems. One guy I follow had transmission line boxes made for his doors of his small car.
