Check that, I meant to say the cone excursion is almost 1/4" in each direction (a bit over 3/16"... not 3/8":). jim The Model Railroad Magic Website ...
Hi Jim Interesting wee speaker - given the full spec, I'll run these through my speaker design program tonight - the TS parameters llook interesting. Also from...
Hey Richard, Very cool! Both things:). These little 2" drivers are basically HB's, so I thought them worth the expirimenting:). There are several alternative...
Hey again Richard, I'm going to just go ahead and order a pair (or two:) of exciters so i can work with you on this end. Here's one reason why... I have been...
I have installed a Tsunami TSU-1000 in a Bachmann 2-8-0. I have tried a 8 ohms speaker with a baffle and a 100 ohms speaker with a baffle. I have reset cv 128...
Hey Ross, Is 'geese' 'gooses':)? In any event, a flock of them can mask a lot of sound:). Especially with Tsunamis there are two areas to look at, the...
I am looking for a source for a 50ohm range pot/rheostat that will handle about 10 watts. I want to use it to sync track voltage with sound system. Thanks, Jim...
Hey Jim, I'm sure someone here can help you with finding the pot. But I am confused, what do you mean 'sync track voltage with sound'? Are you saying you want...
Yes, I want to retard the motor reaction until the sound kicks in. I am using fixed 10 watt resistors but there is enough variation in locomotive motors that a...
Hey Jim, Ok, all makes perfect sense now. Its a fairly clever solution in gangly kind of way:)... but for your specific switching application it sounds...
Hey all, Well one of our members, Richard Johnson and I have been having lively discussions off list. Most of them are just the technobabblings of two hopless...
Sounds like a lot of fun. I have half mind to order some of those myself. I may do that, but I really don't have the time :-( Still .... Keep us informed! ...
Hello All, While I have been lurking mainly, I have also been thinking about the use I will put my new DreamPlayer to. I have just ordered it and even though I...
Hey David, Its crazy enough with Richard and I running on 'parallel tracks':). You're wise to wait and see. The 2" speakers are fine speakers, and can be...
Hey Adarsh, Glad to see you stopped lurking:). If I read you right (and forgive me if I'm not) you expect the dream player to play more than one audio file at...
Jim, Thanks for your input and clarifications. No I am not that worried if it cannot play two tracks at the same time. I will reconfigure my sound requirements...
Hey all, Just came out to do something else and saw the latest ' Randim Stackum & Wrackem' photos:)... Still chuckling, what fun! The real tire marks are the...
Hey Adarsh, Ok, am postig your player in a few minutes. Also, check in the photos section for a folder: Reed Switch Mounting I forgot about this one before. I...
Dear Jim, Jay, Jay, instead of a resistor, you may want to try back-to-back pairs of silicon diodes a la 1N400x (The "x" is a number, with the higher numbers...
Thanks Jim, I will be checking the photos etc. later tonight. A Whiteboard is a medium that allows one to draw and sketch and others to watch and also...
Dear Adarsh, PROF K: Answers within your text ... PROF K: what you appear to be asking for is "Polyphonic playback" (IE 2 independent sound files playing at...
Thanks Prof. Really valuable information. Will keep all posted on the progress. I am also planning to place the relevant speakers at the point where the sound...
Jim, As for the reed switch I am using some tiny switches that can either lie flat in between the ties, so easy to remove and refix, or be pushed in a hole...
Dear Professor, In Jay's initial post (while you were away at the show) he outlined that he already had a solution working. At some point I started 'talking...
Dear Adarsh, Can I suggest you try another approach, just for laughs? Place the L and R satellite (high frequency) speakers up to 4' apart, plug in a basic PC...
Dear Adarsh, Sounds like you've already got a system you're comfy with all worked out, (and that's a good thing! :-) ). FYI, there are some useful reed-switch...
Hey Adarsh, Ok, you got me curious:). It kind of sounds like I should have a reason to give it a go (i.e., bring something for show and tell:). Also, I don't...
