[quote user="Blvdre"] [quote user="seti"] I was looking at your testing for the 2426 and that is interesting. I've found the 902 to be really good out to almost 20khz but it drops around 850-500. I do love the 511b/902 sound. I'd love to try the 511B/902 with other combos as well. Not sure how I missed this thread. Very cool. Any news on that tractrix tweeter? [/quote] If you like the 511/902 combo, you should hear it with a trachorn [/quote] The 902/trachorn combo is

Sootshe, congrats on your beautiful Lascalas and your Trachorn experience. I've enjoyed the Trachorn/902 combo so much that this week I moved them back up front (and yes, even though they have one inch throats). I also agree with Rudy. I've owned Beyma CP25s (they currently sit on a shelf), JBL 2404s (they are in another setup), and I keep coming back to the Eminence sound - at least for quasi-Heritage. Maybe its the phenolics. The Eminence are very reasonably priced, but I personally dig

You are welcome. Enclosed is a pic of my APT 200s on top of my three-way VOTTs. The Klipschorn bass bin can be seen in the background. Carl.

Under the hood with the APT 200 on top. Carl.

[quote user="kg4guy"]How do you like the Radian driver I am using a JBL 2445J with a modified 511B horn.[/quote] I really like the Radians a lot. I've also run them without tweeters and they are pretty strong on the top end. This winter I'll probably go back to running them alone on top once I hook my RTA back up and do some 'equing (I run 902s without tweeters in the rear). I have heard a couple sets of 2445s and they are nice drivers. You might benefit by running them with

Ahhh, I see.................very nice. Carl.

I have owned all three, Bob Crites CT 125, the APT 150, and the APT 200 (the baby cheeks version). I currently use a CT 125 in my center Belle, and a pair of baby cheeks APT 200s with my combo VOTT/Klipschorns (mains). To my ears, the APT 150 is less beamy that Bob's horn (K 77 replica) with better dispersion and the APT 200 is less beamy than the 150, with better dispersion than the 150. The biggest differences to my ears was the move from a 150 to a 200 vs. the move from a K77 to a 150. VMMV

As always, great review Colin. Cannot wait to hear a pair. Carl.

You are crossing the 902s too low and with too shallow of a crossover by using them with the ALKs (400 hz and 12 db slope if I recall). I am the poster you referenced from a year ago, and I've used 902s with wooden Trachorns to great success as two-ways. I would personally cross them over no lower than 500 hz. If you are going to try to keep using them with the KHorns, then 500 hz would be your point. If you are going to try them with the LaScalas, then 600 would be the point or 700 with an extreme

And of course, I still have my Khorns up front. They do bottom end duty to supplement my three-way Altec A7s. Carl.
