    • Accuphase DG-38
    Accuphase Voicing Equalizers DG-38. This somewhat unusual term was chosen to symbolize the advanced capabilities of the DG-38. While this product is a full-fledged high-precision graphic equalizer in its own right, it also incorporates a sophisticated system for automatic sound field compensation. It divides the audible frequency range into distinct bands (voices),and lets the user choose a target response curve that is then expressed (voiced)by the unit through a process of precise measurement and adjustment steps. The result is full control over frequency response characteristics at the listening position. Through creative use of the capabilities offered by the DG-38, the scope of sound reproduction in the home environment can be significantly enhanced. Get ready to experience a new dimension of music enjoyment.

Hi Frankpiet.
SX-8000 is more detail and a little bit over play. Reference is very musical and natural sound. I love References sound.

Hi Tubetubestubes.
Thank you for your coment.
When I listen music I always dimmer lights. I have a photo with the room light when I listen the music. You can see it at:

Hi Rachmaninov0.
I didn't apply any upgrade for my SX8000. Its platter had been gunmetal (a compound of 85% copper, 15% tin & other metals) like what you saw since the time I optained the system.

Hi Audioblazer.
I started to build my system about 6 years ago.
At first it is 2 lines horn speakers system with passsive crossover. At that time I really felt in love with sound of the horn and compression driver. So I planned to build a system of horn speakers to use the active crossover. Actually I'm not a professional that's why I have not enough experience and knowledge to build them myself. I expressed this idea to my friend who is an electronic engineer and then he designed this system horn speakers for me. Coming over a lot of obstacles, my system is finally improved from 2 to 3, and 4 lines with passsive crossover. After that the system turns into active crossover. It takes me around 6 years to design, upgrade, test and repair the systems. And it is now temporary with 7 lines and I am very satisfied. Almost tube amplifier I am using is installed by my engineer friend, and some times I am kidding him as Mr. Kondo of Vietnam. :-)

Currently, there is no consulting or designing company specializing in acoustic listening rooms in Vietnam. However, I built my acoustic listening room to my own knowlegde as follows: diamesion 10.6 m length x 5.7 width x 4.0 m height with unparallel walls aurroundings to get rid of square angle, then, standing waves and reflecting souding waves. Measuring result response by DG-38 is acceptable though I am still not very very satisfied with it yet. If you have any experience about this, please let me know. I would highly appriciate.

The catridge Living stereo gold limited belongs to one of my friends. I know that it is very difficult for him to finally get it in hand. After experiencing it at his home, I realize it is the best I have enjoyed in life. Actually, thousands of months with “entreaties, threadtenings” have been over, I got the dreaming Catridge Living stereo gold limited for my own. I am really happy to have and enjoy it.

Over 6 years of implementation, I can see that my system horn speakers still have many technical problems. But I do want to study & repair it. This is interesting job for me. I hope you to receive your ideas contribution so that I can improve this system day by day.

Regards,

Hi Audioblazer.
I live in Hochiminh city Vietnam. It very difficult to tell you does it cost because I have to spend a long time about 5 - 6 years to collect and set up my systems.

Hi Halcro.
I am sory. I understand and I wish to answer your question but my english is still limited to exactly describe the whole systems constructions. The sound of systems is amazing and fantastic. I feel the speakers try to demondstrate all signals that they recieve from the sources in a structured way. Moreover, it seems that the speakers voice comes their own feeling, not my willing!!?? Thus, I'm really happy and pleased with it. It is difficult to make a full comparision between this loudspeaker systems to others. However, in comparision with others I used to enjoined such as B & W 802, Sonus Faber Grand Piano Concerto, Sonus Faber Cremona, Avantgarde Duo, Tannoy Arden, Tannoy Gold Monitor,Tannoy Westminter Royal, Tannoy Westminter, Altec Lansing A5 and now I feel the loudspeaker systems is the one I wished.
How do you think about my systems?
Best Regards,

My English is very weak. I must seek the support of the software switch languages free of Google translater to from Vietnamese language to English. Hopefully you will understand what I want to say. :-)
The system frequency active part in I'm using is the Accuphse. 1 Voicing equalizer DG-38, 1 Digital frequency dividing network DF-45 is responsible for 4 lines frequency and 1 Digital frequency dividing network DF-35 is responsible for 2 lines frequency remaining.

The cut of frequency settings of the DF-45 and 35.
1 - Low bass: Under 71Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Fostex FW800N
2 - Mid bass: 71Hz to 400Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver JBL 1500AL
3 - Mid low: 400Hz to 1.600Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Westrex T530A
4 - Mid range: 1.600Hz to 5.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Jim Lansing 375
5 - Mid high: 5.000Hz to 8.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Jim Lansing 175
6 - Treble: 8.000Hz to 12.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Fostex T500Mk2
7 - Tweeter: Upper 12.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct – Driver Mewon Ribbon TS01 (passtive crossover)
The system is not really perfect, but its performance is wonderful. I'm pleased with what is brings to me.
Regards.
