He nailed it. I tell people all the time as a diy speaker builder horn based systems, just do it. It's not rocket science, create what you feel is pleasing to see. Then find the speakers and crossovers and blend them.
Kudos young brother. I'm in my sixties and I've had a passion for flea powered amps and super efficient speakers for at least 40 of them. It makes me happy to see that all that is old is new again. Because of your offerings a new generation will now I have an opportunity enjoy something that can only be experienced rather than explained. Thank you for sharing your passion. I'd really like to hear your interations. I have heard your installation over at Public Records both the restaurant and dance space but would love to hear what you offer for the home enthusiast. I am a record collector and play vinyl exclusively. I know you're in Brooklyn and I'm there all the time. I'd love to come by and hear what you got. I know you're a DJ, and yes, I've heard more than one of your sets. I groove with DJ's like Danny Krivitz (718 sessions still happening in Brooklyn), Joe Clausell (Cosmic Arts Records in Brooklyn), Louie Vega, Ron Trent and the hard-hitting, on your knees, crate digging dusty groove selecting monster record collecting Crew from Made in New York Records. How can someone get to your showroom. I'll bring records. One Love☝️
You recognize a proper production when it gets you glue to your screen even when it’s about a subject you were not expecting to be interested in ! Amazing film !
I knew of Devon from Nom de Guerre, wasn’t aware that he started an audio company but he seems extremely passionate and well i just read that he’s trained as an audio engineer so i guess this is where he was always meant to be, never lose that passion brother! This was awesome to see and super inspiring, great film
What's even more astounding is that the technology around recording and analogue mediums took decades to match the level of technology of the sound reproduction. When Western Electric and early Altec were manufacturing equipment, records were shellac discs with fairly ropey quality recordings. Everything took time to catch up to the most of these exquisite sounding systems.
You made a comment about how the earliest attempts at reproduction of sound have now been recognised as being the best. I have often wondered if it was because apart from the tools of measurement, all they had was their ears in a world largely devoid of amplified sound.
Sold plenty of 301's and pip top STC 4211's back in the day. Had Altec A7-500's with the 15 cell's from reading cinema, fantastic. That was 25 years ago !
cool vid sir :) 'just curious if you play an instrument :). i'll bet u could do wonders w/ a Twin Reverb and new speakers........ i am a speaker groupie 4sure too...... currently looking for utah fender 12's like curt cobain had in his Quad :)
I build speakers cos I have to have music playing just about all my waken hours. I can't stand reality without it (that is when it's easy to switch something on that plays music). So why not be an audio nut? I design and make single driver speakers and coaxial driver speakers for a hobby. I'm a point source fanatic.
As well as that system may sound, It is likely not practical for the vast majority of audio enthusiasts but mostly just not aesthetically pleasing to look at. All three things can be accomplished. I seen/ heard room practical systems that sounded beautiful and looked beautiful. No offense.
All of the people in this industry whether manufacturers, reviewers, or users have two things in common. They have enormous enthusiasm but sadly they have virtually a total lack of knowledge about sound. That is why their systems never sound like real music. The first problem is to have a strong technical grasp of the physics of sound and acoustics. Once you have that you realize how daunting duplicating sound fields convincingly really is. There's a lot of mathematics involved in modeling sound fields.
Sounds like you have something special in store for us mere mortals. Can't wait to hear about your revolutionary HiFi company. Drop me a link when your products hit the shelves?
@@Skip_Esquire I don't have a company. I have a United States Patent now expired and a working demonstration prototype. No companies I approached were interested. It would take a very large company to even attempt to develop this into a commercial product, it would be very expensive to try, and there's a real risk that it couldn't be done. I wrote a letter to the CEO of Sony about 15 years ago, Harold Stringer after he was interviewed on TV by Charlie Rose. Several month later I got a letter from his attorney saying they weren't interested because the patent had expired. At that time the industry was very worried about piracy by applications like Napster. I began work on 7 new patents, hired another Patent Attorney and after hearing a bunch of horror stories I realized my intellectual property would be stolen so I quit the idea. That episode cost me 5000 dollars. This is just a hobby for me. I'm not and never have been in this industry. You can see what my background and day jobs are on LinkedIn. Although I haven't paid dues in decades I'm a member of the American Institute of Physics and the Acoustic Society of America, a scientific organization as well as AES and IEEE.

What a film! I need to spin a vinyl and drink a glass of red immediately
This film deserves an Oscar!

My main source of inspiration when it comes to DIY HiFi setups

Devon is a brilliant audio designer.
Great video, im a diehard audiophile! I could sit and talk to him for hours on end a out audio..like why do people dislike horns ?

Great job…
Is the amp on fire at @3:00?
its a Marantz Model 7 Tube Preamp
I wonder how this kit horn speaker sounds against the likes of Fleetwood offerings? The drivers in Ojas seem they would perform.
What's the music at the end?
cool vid sir :) 'just curious if you play an instrument :). i'll bet u could do wonders w/ a Twin Reverb and new speakers........ i am a speaker groupie 4sure too...... currently looking for utah fender 12's like curt cobain had in his Quad :)
You don't work for Altec Lansing by any chance? (Joke)
amp used at 1:21 ? anyone ?
Does anybody know The Track @ 3.31? Thankyou X

That’s what the artbook speakers are for. Small speakers will never produce full range realism, the best that can be hoped for is a nice midrange.
Was that a trailer?
Ortofon SPU - envy...
I have never heard a horn speaker in the last twenty years that sounded good.
Dave you need to come to my listening room!!!
@@jackmontreal1 I'll pass.

My wife would divorce me if I filled up our living room like that.
