Impression and tuning of the new model

This new model was designed to demonstrate at Muse-no-hakobune loudspeaker craft contest which will be held in November this year in Tokyo. I named this new model as "CON GIOIA". "CON GIOIA" is Italian words that mean "with joy".

I think the most important objective of speaker craft is to enjoy, so that new model was named "CON GIOIA".

Approximately three week has passed since CON GIOIA was assembled. It has wide frequency range. Low end frequency is around 50 Hz or even lower. This may be enough for Fostex's 3" driver FE83En. Response of 80Hz - 100Hz does not sound high enough to me, so that I made some change.

I tried to reduce capacity of main chamber of the speaker cabinet stuffing clay into main chamber. Volume of main chamber of original design had little less than 4 litre. It was spacious, but I tried to reduce by 1.5 litre in order to tune some characteristic frequencies in order to compensate 80 - 100Hz small dip.

It did not make significant change. I will try some thing different later.

Mechanical Matrix MMX Speaker System

 I noticed that installing speaker drivers both L and R channel to same chamber makes stereo effects more than ten year ago. It was a test model for MCAP-CR application. Primary focus was to verify if thin film bottle could substitute for speaker driver membrane. The answer was "no"; however, it was found thin film bottle can be used as MCAP-CR subchamber. This system has both L and R drivers in the main wood chamber. I was curious about stereo effect, though L and R were installed closely. I recently tested above effect with 8" full-range drivers (photograph below). This model has two (L & R) FE206E frivers in same chamber. Real sound field effect was given by this system in big room. Now let us see the system of electrical matrix speaker system (let us call "EMX" speaker system) below: EMX is electrical wiring system with unbalanced amplifier whose negative terminal is grounded. Balanceed amplifire may not be used for MMX system. Mechanical matrix speaker

Real Giant...!!!!

This is the real giant. It is the first ever commercial product of multiple-degree of freedom cavity resonator type loudspeaker system! She is the president of DreamsounD where my friend devotes himself for true high-fidelity music presenter loudspeaker system. You will imagine how big it is!　She is not a dwarf. Once my friend wrote to me since he got interested in MCAP-CR. He had other multiple-degree of freedom cavity resonator project. I helped him for a little bit analysis part. He was really much impressed with the performance of the model. He wrote to me that he had never experienced such presence of music with the new system. I wish I could hear it. France is too far from Japan. Visit DreamsounD for more details. Ciao!
