I want to develop a coaxial loudspeaker born from a mixture of the best Japanese inventions of the golden age of high fidelity, associated with modern techniques. 2-way loudspeaker inspired by the Sony APM-6 in the overall concept and made in coplanar coaxial like that of the Pioneer S-F1 with square coil mounted in "Balance Drive", with polygonal spider with linear and symmetrical force inspired by that of the Technics SB-M1 at the end of the coil, without peripheral suspension (Fostex SLE) or with a peripheral suspension with ferrofluid or magnetic...
Due to lack of time this project has been on hold for several years. Funding would allow it to be integrated into Sound Oddity's daily activity. Technical support, particularly for the supply of specific materials and machines needed for prototyping would also be a huge help. Contact me to find out more.
You don't know what to do with your old quality equipment?
Contribute to the development of Sound Oddity and offer to pick it up at your home or make an appointment to drop it off. Some devices will be used for spare parts, others will be reconditioned and sold or simply kept for collection.
If you are not in Reunion, we can proceed by correspondence. Contact me!
For the purchase of specific spare parts or speakers that are only found in Japan, I am looking for a Japanese person who can possibly disassemble speaker drivers and pack them and then arrange the crates, or who can put speakers on pallets for shipping. Serious person with the necessary tools and a garage accessible on the ground floor. Contact me to find out more.
For the production of my prototypes and some custom spare parts, I need to equip myself with a CNC milling machine of suitable quality for machining wood, aluminum and bronze on dimensions of the order of 60x40cm. You can help me select such an affordable machine that can be delivered to Reunion Island with your expert knowledge, offer me one or simply contribute to its purchase. Contact me to find out more.
To produce my prototypes and some custom spare parts, I need to equip myself with a high-quality 3D printer. You can help me select such a machine that can be delivered to Reunion Island with your expert knowledge, offer me one or simply contribute to its purchase. Contact me to find out more.
For the distortion measurement and BEFORE/AFTER comparisons, I would like to equip myself with an audio analyzer.
Audio analyzers are very expensive laboratory machines and difficult for a craftsman to acquire. However, such a machine would be very useful to me in my approach to total quality and respect for the facts.
For the repair/restoration of motors it is necessary to demagnetize the magnets for the safe disassembly of the pole pieces and then re-magnetize the magnets after intervention. Also for the restoration of vintage speakers with alnico magnets, it is sometimes necessary to re-saturate the motors, a service that will certainly be very appreciated by my customers…
