I have a JF-1 but haven't yet set it up. One needs two 2-channel power amps or 2 pairs of monoblocks. The top three channels are run through the passive. I can forward the original manual of the JF-1 in PDF form if you want. I know nothing about the paint.

The Eurythmie is real Great :)
You know some information for the paint is like velvet
in your system you use the JF-1? and how you have 4 same amp

Jadisboy,
Congratulations on your speakers. I hope you are enjoying them as much as I
do.

Johnk,
The mid-bass horn is 68cm wide at the widest inside point just near the top.
And from the middle of the inside top edge to the top of the treble wood horn
it is also 68cm. The horn is 3cm thick at all the outside edges. From the
inside of the horn (the inside edge of the throat) to the middle of the inside
top edge, it is 76cm. From the same inside of the throat 'lip' to the inside of
the middle of the vertical edge (where I view the axis to be), it is 79cm.
Horizontally across the middle (inside edges again) at or near the axis point,
it is 57cm wide.

As you can see on Jadisboy's left speaker, the top side of the flare appears to
be more acute than the underside - that is not an optical illusion; it looks
that way on mine too. Measurements show that if one draws a straight line
from the top external edge of the throat to the top external edge of the front,
the maximum distance from that straight line to the horn is 9.5cm. On the
sides it is 8cm. On the bottom of the horn it is 5cm.

On mine I have no labels on the drivers, but I do remember that it uses an
Audax 6.5" PR170MO driver for the mid-bass. I have just found a
reference I had written down suggesting Beyma and Fostex drivers on the top
(no info on the bass units). I thought I had a pdf copy of the Stereophile
review of the speakers which would give a bit more info but I cannot find it
now. The magic is obviously in the horn, the crossover points, and the
crossover itself, rather than the mid-bass and treble drivers themselves. It
might be that much better using top-notch drivers (though I've heard the
Audax in other hi-eff applications and it has sounded quite good there too -
great dynamics), but given the efficiency of what is in there and the horns,
the drivers are certainly not working too hard.

The bass has two bottom-firing woofers (actually, the outer-facing one is
bottom-firing; I can't remember if the one above is wired in or out of phase)
per side in an isobaric arrangement inside the cabinet with no parallel sides. I
expect they are wired in parallel (expected use of crossover/biamping). Jadis
made an electronic (tube-based) 2-way crossover (Jadis JF-1) so people
could biamp the speakers (running the bass directly and the mid/treble
through the passive crossover I think). The crossover point is supposedly
180Hz.

Please send me mail if you have any other questions on measurements/etc. I
will do what I can. I would be interested to see what comes out.

It would be easier to use a 150Hz horn such as the Oris150 or an Azurahorn
and then add the other units where needed. I think the only way the bass
works in that size a box is because of the isobaric nature of the woofers, and
it does pretty well (and goes waaay deep, which is great - the best bass is not
always that which goes deepest, but once you get really good bass down
deep, one does not want to go without - and it just makes the treble that
much better).

Hi Erickdates
The Zyx Airy 3 is very good cartridge real, but the Miyabi47 is better cartridge.
He plays better music and has more real details and has body in the details.
The sound stage is bigger.
The vocals are wet and real.
Regards

If you have the time would you be so kind to measure large midbass horn with audax driver. I think I will attempt to build a improved version. Sure the network will be fun but I do this much anyway.

johnk March 03, 2010 21:17

Thank you for your time and help. JK-K.C.S.

johnk March 03, 2010 21:06

jadisboy March 03, 2010 19:28

Thank you Kops
I keep for you one place :):)

jadisboy March 03, 2010 19:17

JB, Your system is exquisite! I also have the RS-A1 and the ZYX Airy3... how does the 47Labs Miyabi cartridge compare? And I second JohnK's question about the Eurythmie, could you share details about its drivers please? What compression drivers do the Eurythmie use? Thank you, and congrats!

erickbates March 03, 2010 00:33

Does the Jadis Eurythmie use a fostex tweeter and midrange? If so what model. Thank you

johnk March 02, 2010 23:09

Congratulations Jadis boy (Nik.) for your new speakers!!!! enjoy Stealth cables and Verdier too.

Yes, I really would love to hear the GRF Memories, and any of the big Tannoys for that matter. I have a pair of vintage Autographs enroute. They are my early Christmas present to myself. Enjoy!

skushino December 06, 2008 03:07

-----------Upgrate in 47LABS tonearm RS-A1-------
Best upgrate in 47LABS tonearms is change the cable headshell with other more flexibly my opinion is Audionote Tonearm Cable .
is more flexible and more clear.
after put the audionote cable the head shell movit more more more free and the read lp's is perffect The sound stage is more big the sound is more free and the back back details o my got
please trust my opinion is the best from first hour

Regards
Jadis boy

jadisboy November 24, 2008 11:10

I wish for you Skushino you hear sometime the GRF Memories is the Best .

jadisboy November 24, 2008 11:03

Beautiful system Jadisboy! I had the good fortune of listening to some vintage Tannoy red speakers, ranging from the ridiculously large Autograph Professional with dual 15" DC drivers, GRFs, and the smaller Dalton. All share the natural, human sound that communicates the soul and emotion of music among the very best speakers I've heard. Someday I hope to hear the GRF Memories, like yours.

skushino November 20, 2008 06:54

thank you Bvdiman
i try the cubes down from the speacker and i tell you
before 3 months i buy the promitheus amplifier 6C33C pure triode
the details is
TANNOYS NEEDS WATTS AND GOOD WATTS
dont play Tannoy with amplifier down 50 watt the resaukt is not good

jadisboy November 10, 2008 15:42

I lived with the Westminsters for a couple of years in the mid '90s. Yes they really come alive soulfully with good tube equipments. I see that you have added super tweeters too--good move! Another lead that you might want to try out is to lift your speakers "off the floor". I did mine using solid blocks of high density wood (6-8cm cubes) which work wonders.. Cleaner bass, midrange, highs and slightly better transients. It's cheap and very effective! Also, I stuck microscan (a vibration control device) on back panels of each speaker, they absorb lots of the speakers' unwanted cabinet vibrations thus resulting in better imaging and image specificity. Hope these tweaks work for you too! ..Missed my Tannoys!
