Outline Announces Revamped ET Series Acoustic Measurement Turntables

A longstanding mainstay of Outline’s diverse portfolio of products, the company's ET System measurement turntables have received important new developments and refinements and are now available in two new models - ET50-3D and ET250R2-3D - to suit different speed and load requirements. Outline’s original concept of a high-precision, computer-controlled turntable capable of placing significant loads with perfect accuracy in a measurement environment is in daily use around the world.

Test Bench: An Extended Home Audio 6.5” Midbass Transducer from Purifi Audio

The Purifi Audio PTT6.5X04-NFA-01 midbass transducer is an over-achiever, and to help understand why, Dickason talks with Lars Risbo about the research and thought process that lead to many of the features found in this woofer. Including the unique cone assembly that consists of a mildly curvilinear paper cone made with a proprietary fiber mix, a 3.13” concave dust cap, and a V-shaped edge reinforcing ring, the NBR surround, and what Dickason calls "probably the most unique surround in the history of Voice Coil’s Test Bench.

Loudspeakers for Vented Enclosures: A Backward Approach for Speaker Selection (LoVE BASS)

Loudspeakers for Vented Enclosures: A Backward Approach for Speaker Selection (LoVE BASS)

In this article for Voice Coil, the authors explore the problem of designing vented enclosures, describing a backward concept they call LoVE BASS, which they found to save a substantial amount of engineering hours during the process of speaker box design. As opposed to taking a given driver and designing an enclosure, the authors define the system’s target performance in terms of physical volume, lower cut-off frequency, ripple and maximum achievable SPL, after which they look for candidate drivers that allow for such a design. This article was originally published in Voice Coil, July 2019.
