Mark Fenlon on the Mark audio CHR 90

Mark Fenlon of Mark audio talks with Stefan Whatcott of KJF Audio about the new CHR 90 multi purpose driver.

[@andrejsjegorovs615]

Hallo ... I bought a CHR-90 for my system, their contacts are attached to plastic, when connected with a soldering iron, won't they melt, like you connected the wires?

[@drdiesel1]

My introduction to Mark Audio and full range was with a 12P system, I was shocked at how good they sounded. Currently pondering another set for my living room. Many thanks Mark.

[@juststuff5216]

I replaced my Monitor Audio BX2's with a pair of Marks in a t-line of my own design.

[@jeffwilling4254]

Looks like a really nice driver. Great to see you both doing well.

[@ashyoung6134]

Hope Mark is still doing well. Really like the 11MS and considering a CHR 120.

Mark Audio - Stick them in a Transmission Line FTW 😎 Back To My Roots - Mark Audio CHN-70 Transmission Line Speakers - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnS2oH58gc-Eos0 Transmission Line Designs - Projects Part 2 - Mark Audio - kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2qZiHSMhsmWr7M Still love my CHN70's … and I do push them hard! I really don't miss a 2+ way set up, which was the main concern for me when swapping from 2-3 way to a full range. I'd take Marks' over the equivalently priced Tang's or Fostex. Just my 10 pence!

That frequency response looks like it would lend itself nicely to a single driver full-range. The gentle mid-range slump and dip around 5KHz would be particularly handy for baffle compensation

[@MilGrip76]

Will there ever be 0/30/60 or the like response graphs for MA drivers? Thanks.

[@Luke-qs2cg]

That frequency response isn't far off the 10k usd tunetot by Wilson audio

Might I offer some advice. Could you maybe not interrupt Mark so frequently. He just is about to get going on some interesting point when you not only interject, but do so a bit forcefully.

[@MrSl1x]

And maybe mute when grabbing stuff, then background noise is less. As you know, people are audiophile here

[@Frisenette]

Shiiit. He touched the driver! You could see Mark pause and swallow for a second. :-)

[@juststuff5216]

I've touched a few times with no bad side effects. One of them did fail when i accidentally stuck my knee into one .. but i guess that would go for many/any drivers!

[@Frisenette]

@@juststuff5216 it basically tinfoil plus. It doesn’t take any effort to dent or deform it. The second there is a dent the signature sound is changed.

[@juststuff5216]

@@Frisenette "The second there is a dented the signature sound is changed." Can you back that up with any measurable data?

[@Frisenette]

@@juststuff5216 no but it’s common sense. A small dent might have a small impact. But small differences is what hifi is about.

to do less with more ???
