Re: Garage Loudspeaker Lab


So, besides loudspeakers my other hobby is Radar signal processing.  I got the bug after I build one of those MIT Kit radars a few years ago.

There are a TON of parallels to loudspeaker transfer function measurement.

The MIT radar is a fun project to work on with your kids too.  It's very easy to build and understand how it functions.


Anyway, my latest bit of gear which I picked up for cheap, is this vintage HP pulse generator.  The construction is just amazing.  I love the old HP stuff.  They just don't make them like this anymore.


Edit: Added the finished repair photos.  Replaced the BNC crap with nice Agilent SMA connectors.  Cleaned out the garbage dust buildup from the analog boards and magic, pulse looks good again.
