[quote user="bernie_f"] Hi Romy.
Why trying to reinvent the wheel? Everything about room treatment and room accoustics has been said and done. By a guy totally in the know and offering his advice and his tools on his website. Michael Green do...

[quote user="clarkjohnsen"]Since all audio folks know that the wall gives us highly variable power (voltage being just about the least important aspect), it occurs to me that a way to measure it that includes all the various parameters would be highl...

Well, this is huge mystery in the reproduction of the few first milliwatt and I very much applaud to what Nelson Pass is trying to do. Being muse a proponent of high sensitively and low power I very much experienced with the fact the high power amps ...

The thread is derivation form the previous thread about the Dima's amplifier.I was trying to gradually approach better and better loudspeakers with the Zarathustra amplifier but today I decided to hit with the Zarathustra the pinnacle of low sen...

[quote user="Serge"] The SIlbatone room was very large. They played an Edith Piaf record on a mono WE16B (or A, not sure). They played it very loud which I don't like, ever. I felt the system was made to show dynamics and it did it. The dynamic r...

This is complicated as I usually get very pissed on Christmas. I very pissed that Christians have stolen my great holiday and attributed it to own religion. I all my life celebrated last week of the year, it was wonderful holyday and I never att...

I a very much am sitting on sidewalk of audio. 10 years back I was paying attention to mainstream media, was buying and evaluating audio equipment, traveling around the country and around the world listening different installations, maintaining g...

The name of this thread a bit cryptic and need to be explained, as the Alzheimer in my vocabulary means slightly different things then it is commonly recognized. When I was 13 years old I read a book (I do not remember what it was) that was dedi...

de Charlus, this “are not afraid of cabinet resonance per se” is complicated subject. I have raised the topic in the “How to USE “Resonating Oops” in loudspeakers” thread:

Morricab,
Of curse you are very much correct but I always thought that what you said is understandable by default.
When I am talking about the ability of playbacks to care the “absolute tone” I indisputably meat sound reproduction of the “best” in...

[quote user="hifitodd"] Frankly, from my perspective your stance on DPoLS mirrors that of the typical audio-moron voodooism. Here is some essentially non-obtainable state that when realized will make the listener "hypotized" by thew newfound mu...

Ok, Andrew, this is allergy something. I would highly advise you in future before you post any discrete updates, questions, and ideas about what you to inform about the holistic objective of your project, sort of a view from 50.000 feet...

Hi,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]This subject of digital crossovers became quite popular during last few years and many audio-people give up and go for a simplicity and painlessness of digital crossovering.[/quote]Well, digital X-Overs would appear to o...

I think I have too much time on my hands or use my time in highly stupid fashion but I decided to do today the experiment about witch I was thinking for a while. The experiment was “methodology clean” and lead me to quite interesting discoveries. Sin...

Like I’ve said, my aim was to find/build a pair of
speakers that could be driven “full range” by one of my Marantz MA-9S2 amps per
stereo channel, and these speakers would have to give me greater insight into
Bruckner in order to fill the bill. I ...

[quote user="darkmoebius"] That's because "off the shelf" amps can be easily resold for little or no loss of money if they are not to the buyer's liking. The Melquiades, on the other hand, leaves the builder with $3,000 worth of parts not easily reso...

I went to THE Show again this year, along with a couple of audio friends. This year I was better prepared, with preconceived notions about what I wanted to see/hear, and where to find that gear. I did not try to “cover” the show, at all. I just wa...

I had many interesting listening experiences while I used the Water Drop’s Macondo. I would try to surmise briefly the sonic consequences of the Water Drooping. “Me” and “briefly”, would it be possible? Well, where did you see a Jewish boy who refuse...

Dear Romy,
Thank you for the commentary and the advice with regards to the need to have a COGNITIVE ORDER OF SUCCESSION and to test with another speaker in situ first.
Given the varying degrees of how different individuals process COGNITI...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Well I assume you mean the "pros". After this weekend at the Paris Hifi show (first one ever for me), I cannot say that I place much value in what the "pros" might think.

At CES there were Viagra-junkie sized power cords everywhere for $5000. Around our room were $10k and $20k speakers that sounded like a wet jukebox. It was the land of delusion.Value per topology is one way to measure but let's instead start with a p...

Cat:First off, the Silbatone Aporia is $30k/pr not 100k. You could do 6 speaker surround with Aporia for well under $100k. Hope you feel better now."So what," I say. $30k is already too much for my pocket. I am on a fellowship this year and cheapskat...
