Introducing The Bully: gr-research.co...
The Brute’s “big brother” is even bigger, badder and he’s not holding back!
The Bully brings both high efficiency and 12″ servo subwoofers to the fight, offering detailed and impactful bass with extension flat to 20Hz
This make them easy to drive even with low-powered tube amplifiers, plus the Subwoofer’s PEQ function and extension filters give you full control over the bass response.

As an engineer and avid speaker/amplifier DIY-er, this is just right. The concept, technology and price is spot on. The boutique over-hyped and overpriced wide baffled speakers out there (Harbeth, Spendor, Audio Note etc.) are no way better than this, it's all about engineering, not magic. So go out and build a pair. BTW I am not affiliated with GR.

You lost me kind of there. How do you find this stuff and what instrument would you need to check all of this stuff out.

Wonder if you considered mounting the subwoofer sideways allowing a narrower baffle with less diffraction, add a little bit more friendly to the wifester 😂. I'm sure it's an amazing loudspeaker, it's just so BIG. As you mentioned. It kind of reminded me of my original Definitive BP 2000s I had purchased many years ago. Those were fun speakers! MtM or WtW seem to get a bad rap, I've always liked them myself and I'm excited to see you utilizing that in your loudspeaker line-up. Love your solution

Hi Danny! I have a suggestion, that will surprice and delight quite a big part of the diy community. Make a speaker with horn/pro drivers in the midrange and tweeter aria. Without the normal horn coloring and distorsion and dispersion issues. Maybe with metal hifi tweeters in a horn on top. And not for heavy metal, but jazz and folk and classical music. With the horns dynamic and "live" properties. Midrange from 5-600 Hz and up. And preferably as dipole/open back. There are many good affordable midrange drivers these days. Mofi 8" and 10" killers...

Note that the horns will NOT be pointed directly towards the listener, but aimed up or down to produce a larger sound field.

Would it be possible to overcome that either by recessing the tweeted the same amount, I guess it would need an enlarged opening, or by a circuit that delays the timing of the tweeter by the microseconds needed for phase alignment?

Hi Danny. I hear your objections to posting video/audio of speakers in operation. That said there are plenty of YT channels that audition speakers and the results are clearly audible despite YT audio compression. Interconnects and speaker cables are clearly audible, enough so that preferences can be reliably discerned. I get it that fine nuances/imaging/sound staging/layering etc may not be fully conveyed but decent AV recordings can very usefully convey the overall nature/vibe of the DUT. Please reconsider your stance and post some demos of your new hallmark speakers, it surely won't harm your brand. Cheers from Downunder.

@@dannyrichie9743 Thx! 80Hz is low, and explained the spacing. So it's sort of like having stereo subwoofers! Your mid-bass drivers in parallel must be kicking nice and tight. Really nice build. I recently hooked up a vintage pair of Energy 6th order passive bandpass subs which roll off around 100 but are audible into the 200 Hz range, while reaching into the mid 20's on the low end. 40 year old speakers likely won't compete with the woofer you've got, but I was pleasantly surprised how much more musicality it added to a full range set of 8" 2 ways, (which go down in the mid 30's, but adding the stereo subs is different than an LFE or a DVC sub.

Having the subs in the same place as your left and right can cause issues. I have matching 550p subs underneath my JBL Studio 580's, and it does not work at all. I knew this would be the case, but I wanted a pair of these subs for other reasons. They're unplugged and just being used as stands right now. If you have 2 subs, you kind of want them in non-symmetrical places. I suppose you could put these towers in a room, but just not centered in the room. Also, does it have the ability to mix in LFE from an RCA jack?

Offsetting the upper section helps with diffraction. By aiming the speakers straight forward, the diffractions go off to the side and away from the listener.

I recall you had an inline line level filter. Versus passing off a full range signal to the upper portion and let the power wasting crossover burn amplifier power, why not use a custom in line filter to split the frequencies off?
@Grommet2007
@Grommet2007 9 ай бұрын
It's likely that the passive high pass on the top speakers will not "burn power". If implemented correctly, it will present a high impedance to the amp at low frequencies, and therefore consume low power at those frequencies.
@dannyrichie9743
@dannyrichie9743 9 ай бұрын
Passive filter don't burn off amplifier power. The reason these have an internal high pass filter is that they can be used with any amp. Inline filters have to be based on the input impedance of each amplifier they are used with.

@@MS-pw8yu Yes, Rythmik Audio asked me to post that. If there are issues with the use of the 240 volt systems (that might include any transformer hum), by the time Rythmik has to handle return shipping to the overseas customer, they loose money. It is just not worth it to them if they have to service them. Shipping is just too high. However, if the customer is willing to cover shipping both ways if there is any issue with them, we will send them out to them.
