| Has anyone heard the new Eric Alexander signature speakers the matrix LS? Yes, I own them and very happy with them. I live in the southern part of Westchester County in NYS. They are terrific up and down the frequency range. Smooth, full, plenty of detail, impact and slam. Smooth and detailed, very well balanced in that... | |
| DIY Replacing Components in Crossovers Grannyring, bought a number of Duelund CAST PIO caps as part of a crossover upgrade. These caps are out of stock most places. So for the midrange section, where I need 13.0uF, I bought 8.2 + 4.7 + 0.1 for one speaker and 8.2 + 3.3 + 1.5 for the o... | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC We can upgrade the tweeter and woofer wiring easily enough. The midrange is made up of 14 forward firing tweeters on each cabinet, 28 in total, and a harness of some kind. Also, they may be in an enclosure, don’t know. There is a rear firing tweet... | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC If the Mundorf coils with paper (specifically MCoil VLCU Copper Foil Paper) is available in 9 AWG (and assuming not too thick of a conductor at 9 AWG) while the Duelund CAST inductors are 12 AWG, I wonder which of the two sounds better, and how mu... | |
| Fuses Thanks! Yes, it is currently a single capacitor but I may end up using multiple caps to get to 220 uF (like you did to get to 115.8 uF). | |
| Fuses Yuviarora, thanks for your reply. If I understand the drawing correctly, my positive comes in from the amp, goes through an inductor, then heads toward the drivers. On its way to the drivers, there is a junction where a wire goes from the positiv... | |
| Fuses Yuviarora, found you over here on this thread. I am in the planning stage of a crossover upgrade (sorry to be off-topic from fuses; mine are all Synergistic Orange). My largest cap is 220 uF and next largest is 13 uF. You sound very pleased wit... | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC I am in Southern Westchester County, NY, on the off-chance you are within a drivable distance. | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC I have the first pair of Tekton Design Matrix LS. | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC Yuviarora, thanks! Do you have any perspective as to optimal gauge (AWG) of inductor? I am hearing via audiocircle that 12 gauge sounds better than 14 gauge on the midrange section. Resistance is lower so it will not match the original if the orig... | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC Yuviarora, I assume you are, in your next project, using the Duelund CAST inductors? Any idea how they’ll perform vs the Jantzen wax based on speaking with others, or will you not know until you try? | |
| Jantzen Wax Coil or Mundorf M-Coil CFC Yuviarora, interesting. I am considering Jantzen wax coils versus Mundorf, but don’t know what you mean by “Mundorf plastic coils “. Mundorf’s best foil air core is “Copper Foil Paper”, is that the one you mean? |
