i modded (gasp) both models through cabinet re-inforcement and then eventual cross-over replacements for both sets of speakers. I considered the sealed box approach for the woofers, but I'm happy with even the woofers having an OB approach with the known trade-offs, at least in my main room (more on that below).Īs for a little background on my journey to field coil, I started out first with horns and high-efficiency Altec speakers in both 16-ohm Valencias and then Model 14s (I still own both, but they are not in use currently). I am currently running all my field-coils in a fully open-baffle manner, including the woofers. The power supplies are also super important to top sound, as previous comments suggest-IMHO. ![]() I have heard field coils sound just ok.they don't guaranty phenomenal sound by themselves, and some may never sound better than just ok. I consider myself a field-coil fan, but I probably need to qualify that as the speaker design is, at least, equally important to top sound, in my experience. So I guess I have 7 field coil drivers currently in active systems. All of my main drivers are Rullits (3 different levels), and on my primary pair of speakers I also have field coil woofers from Supravox. I have two stereo pairs and a mono (5 total speakers) based off of full-range field coils.
