ACOUSTIC TUNING unforgettable
episode |
published in Jun.2007: Mr.A
living in Aomori prefecture was end-of-life
WCW-2016R's owner. (The speaker driver is Roiene
RA160.) He seemed to has a great time mainly on classic
every day. |
However,
unfortunately his house burnt down by the fire of neighboring
house. WCW-2016R hybrid speakers burned together at that
time. Time passed, He decided to build a new
house. And Hasehiro had his WCW's order again. But
"No more Roiene driver" So, Hasehiro recommended
WCW-F200A with FOSTEX alnico speaker driver F200A to
him. He agreed readily to Hasehiro's
recommendation. |
WCW-2016R |
WCW-F200A |
His move-in to a
new house is on June 2007. Hasehiro was relieved to
hear the news. Because Hasehiro had always had a desire
to deliver WCW-F200A hybrid speakers when
he move-in to a new house. One day Hasehiro
received a CD for acoustic quality check with a letter from
him before the delivery date for
WCW-F200A. The letter said, I will be
the most comfortable when I
listen |
to cello tone. So
please tune the sound of WCW-F200A for listen to cello tone
really nice. The images will be as
follows: 1) Pervasive sound when play and loses
the sound quickly. 2) The sound of the second balcony of
the packed medium-scale hall. 3) The
gentle warm-hearted midrange and do-not-disturb high
note and undertone of the
midrange. And the CD contained about 12
tracks including Unaccompanied Cello Sonata, Harpsichord
Music, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony and From the New
World. In it is written his desires each
track. For example, The 1st
track: I hope it play the resonance of
cello body when triad (G) cello
with expression. The
4th track: I want a good
feeling to lose the rapidly raised undertone of
the harpsichord. The 10th track: That's females
chorus. As for WCW-2016R, I listened to it with a
comfortable feeling. But if I listen to it by car stereo
and portable stereo, I will always get
unpleasantness. He would have an ear for
music by listening WCW-2016R for many years. Additionally,
he likes cello tone. WCW-2016R's cello had a peculiar
atmosphere of sadness. WCW-F200A is a beautiful tone but it
has a weak personality compared to WCW-2016R. However,
WCW-F200A takes precedence over WCW-2016R in
rich undertone, dynamism and spaciousness of
orchestra. Hasehiro has started the tuning of
WCW-F200A with a background like that. But the tuning
method of WCW is only coordination the quality and the
quantity of noise absorbing
material. |
At first, Hasehiro set one
felt pad in the air chamber of the left- sided speaker and
also two felt pads in the air chamber of the
right- sided one. And Hasehiro listened to the CD
by monaural channel, with turn around the balance volume
from side to side. The table below shows the
judgment. |

Two felt pads were better than
one felt pad. Then, one side sets three felt pads
in the air chamber and which is better, 2 felts or 3
felts? Next is Tozawa
styled resonater. One side sets one
absorbing resonater in the air chamber. After that, one
side sets two absorbing resonaters in the air
chamber. Sound changes discernibly. Please
check your speakers again. Your sound will make
improvements at your
choice. |
