[quote user="Paul S"] Pretty clean, Romy (and one hellova tranny at Fundamentals)! [/quote]

First of all it was quite interesting and quite educational. Second of all it answers no questions but rather creates more questions. Here is what I try to compile some my observations and thoughts on the subject.
I have a local guy who red my site ...

[quote user="drdna"]Okay, what is that, and where can I hear it? [/quote]I briefly mentioned it in the electricity thread.

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"] In my new room, I can't find the patience to listen to Bruckner. I can now listen to concertos and pieces with content in the tone and space, but if the music takes too long to get into it, I become impatient, then feel l...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I am certain that the depth of such an experience .. is very dependant on the system+room; whether something in the system can bring about a more crystalline state of mind… I will be very curious to see how this 7th chann...

[quote user="Edgar="]Not Amplitude. It's the rock solid phase linearity. It feels like a brick wall all the way up and down. I haven't looked at any graphs and haven't measured anything but that is my guess. There is no question of the great tone of ...

Well, one thing about the videos Romy is that they are more difficult to get through for me than the writing, but more informative I think, so thank-you for doing them. There is no way I can find an hour to sit and watch each of these so it was done...

[quote user="anthony"]My RAAL Lazy Ribbon has ended up needing a 1st order high pass filter to match the midrange S2 which is so much more convenient than third or fourth order as initially intended.[/quote]
In my case I found that RAAL ribbon wit...

Thanks again for further explication, Bill. I appreciate that you are heavily invested in all this. Taking into account not only what I have been told but also what I've heard for myself, I think I can squeeze a bit more soundtage from my current set...

[quote user="peter foster"] Since obtaining a pair of 'reference' microphones, microphone pre-amplifier and analog-to-digital converter as part of my playback system I have learned much about 'relative reality', 'transformation of reality', 'reinstat...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Assuming you go ahead with the mid-bass horn project: If you decide to run the woofer towers along with the mid-bass horns, it is logical to assume they'll produce much of the range produced by these new horns. [/quot...

About the 1250Khz secondary resonance: Romy wrote:"...My MF channel is crossed well above secondary resonance – at 3200Hz... I get my 1000Hz by gliding the filter-declining slope of the secondary resonance..."I know this... What I'd really like to s...

Bill, it sounds like you have made a significant investment (time and resources) into (re)producing reverberation with your entire system, also setting time alignments of various drivers, across the board, and I assume you would not have gotten this ...

I know the people who visited me and know how Macondo performers would say that I am crazy. It can play very loud and very clean while it does all loud tricks. From certain perspective I can humble state that very few people in audio able to get the ...

Romy, during my own quest for a center channel I met (the late) James Bongiorno, all of which I've written about before at GSC. James was a passionate proponent of the center channel, and to that end he developed the Trinaural Processor, which is ana...

From another perspective it has film capacitors and the non-polarized Nichicon Muse caps. They take up-to to 30 days to burn-in. So, it might be just too fresh. I would not say that it kills everything – it is just a very-very slightly brighter, enou...

I would like the people who read this site and those others whohave genuine interest in Vitavox understand that that subject of old Vitavox production is a bit tricky and I would not be surprised if the truth never be known. There is not such a thing...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It is in a way ridicules. For years people who build of use horn fight with honk in horn, particularly in midbass-upperbass-lowerMF horns. I built my midbass horns and it has no honk, I mean no honk ever of any kind. S...

Ok, since you people stop to drop the euphoric saliva around the Goto subject I think it would be worth to outline my interest in Goto. Not only worth but I kind of feel an obligation. I feel that my site surprisingly has become a resource that ...

I have long wrestled with the apparently relentless upward tilt of hi-fi. It's like a rock skipping across a pond, and the overall direction of the rock's travel is upward in terms of frequency. Also, the rock "wipes" or smears out t...

Your latest post got me thinking in a sort of incomplete way about how you might locate the injection channel... If you consider tone as a harmonic of the original source, then (depending on the order of harmonic) it may in fact not be co...

[quote user="steverino"] If the units are to be placed between the wall and the PP then I think that would be a safe way to use it. I do not recommend connecting audio equipment directly through them though.[/quote] That is kind of puzzling to me. Wh...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]BTW, I have a local Bostonian guy have replied brought today a very interesting DHT amp. He has a number of DHTs and this one he reports is the special one, quite expensive as well. Although the electricity was not good tod...

I very slowly started to convert another amp to DHT. For now I listen just left channel and in a striped down mode: no tweeter and no Injection, letting the MF to care the whole upper range. It is interesting to play different tubes in this mode. Fra...

OK, I disconnected my MiniMe speakers and left only Macondo to care sound in the room. I was listing for the last week Macondo. There is no bass, just upperbass horn at the bottom and The Injection channel a full range. It is OK sound but truly nothi...

David Wilson says about the WAMM:
Atkinson: What range does the electrostatic unit cover?
Wilson: It operates above 5kHz. And it operates at a very low level. It functions primarily to provide part of the leading edge of high-frequency transients....

OK, it took for a while but at this point I have nailed down all design aspects of the new 6-channels Super Milq, and particularly its input stage. I have listen and evaluated all solutions that will be implemented in there; selected, appraised and o...

To move further I need to address a VERY important point.
The reverberation injection is NOT Surround Sound, not multichannel and not any
know to us typical encodings: Dolby, AC3... etc. To be honest when I hear the
mentioning of Surround sound I ...
