Thanks and congrats sir.

@rgbautista: Congrats on your Apocalypse. Few questions if you can accommodate: Ano size ng drivers nya? Ano dimensions ng cabinet? Ano ang finish, is that painted?

rgbautista · « **Reply #6935 on:** Jun 01, 2015 at 06:29 AM »

@raptor and @nogo,
Sorry if I can't really give a better comparison but personally, the sound stage is wider than that of the omega considering it's smaller size. Mas may lalim lang siguro ng konti sa bass si omega. Di ko pa napakinggan ang titus bs. I would assume na parang omega rin siya so mas may lalim din ang bass. Overall, I like the sound quality I'm getting in such a small cabinet.

The tweeter used in titus bs and apocalypse is the same. It's really best to audition them. The apocalypse is available for audition in the makati showroom.

@dm1179
The tweeter around 3 inches (excludes the mounting), the woofer is 5 inches. Cabinet is H32cm x W16m x D25. Textured black matte paint finish.

Question, what is the purpose of the tweeter and mids at the back of the speaker cabinets? Is it to negate standing waves by emitting 180 deg out of phase sound or acts as a passive radiator?

my guess is for bigger sound stage.

probably sir paeng is referring to the new titus speakers (not the old one) Titus Monumental and Titus Gold BS. those have tweeters and mids at the back.

Nice. Meron na bang FS version nyan? That will be good for those looking for slim tower speakers.

I was thinking the same sir pero hindi dipole ung speaker eh. I just don't know what is the purpose.

Im my limited experience, bass drivers are installed at the back of the speaker to reduce pressure on the backwave and act as a passive radiator allowing designers to create a smaller box size, but for the AAudio, I think there is something else. For one, the box is huge and ported. Also, I don't understand why a tweeter is mounted at the back.

Yup. According to Pchin, those were the high-end models.

Im really curios why a tweeter at the back of the speakers.

Apocalypse slim tower with 1pc tweeter + 3pc 5" woofers would be nice.

oo nga pards, me tweeter nga sa likod. tatlo pa. hahaha! Galing naman ng design. Initially im skeptical as this might mess the soundstage.

RXV · « **Reply #6952 on:** Jun 01, 2015 at 03:50 PM »

Maraming gumagawa ng ganitong design, like Von Schweikert. On one of their product descriptions, it says:

"To add the depth found in the concert hall, we have provided a rear-firing ribbon tweeter along with our Ambience Retrieval System with Effects Level Control. This Dipolar Design creates a “bubble” of sound rather than a narrow “beam,” generating a huge sweet space."

Hmmmm... maka-experiment nga tayo Paeng hahaha

Is Wilson Lim's shop still at the same place about 2 blocks from E. Rodriguez Ave? It's a b*tch to park there so I always take a cab.

cyberdraven · « **Reply #6956 on:** Jun 01, 2015 at 07:15 PM »

I think its still the same place pare though not sure. 2013 pa ata ako huling napunta dun

Gino · « **Reply #6957 on:** Jun 01, 2015 at 07:17 PM »

That's recent enough. KAC days pa huling punta ko. My Musical Fidelity tube CDP was declared terminally ill.

zram18 · « **Reply #6958 on:** Jun 01, 2015 at 09:45 PM »
