Chris, at this point it is hard to say anything defiantly. Subjectively it sounds like the Super Milq has slightly less HF extension and transient then the regular Milq, although the output transformer of the HF channel of Super Milq runs higher and ...

Chris,
What I most concern is that my pursuing to fix the HF channel I make myself similar to zillion audio Morons who run across Audio like wounded in the ass animals and keep evaluation components, elements, cables, soldering and defectively of th...

Guys,
Thanks, for your help with all my HF channel frustration.
The saga is not over. The latest update is the following:
The “secured” Cubes 950 (1000pF and 500pF) were placed between the Milq’s HF channel and the result was dissatisfying. The so...

Here is my proposal for an ideal horn system. The concept derives from the really of the horns as I know them, the available park of the drivers, the drivers’ real capacity and from… everything else that I might comment upon if you would not figure o...

And email from a site’s visitor:….
“And for my full-range Melquiades, should I still try and build the original version or wait to see result of what you are working on now?”
This is a complicated question about 2-stage Melquiades vs. single-stage...

I started this thread on November 22 last year, or about 6 month ago. 3 years back I went for single stage amps and 6 month ago I begin to conceptualize a move for a higher gain for MF and consequentially the DHT in output stage. Today the new MF...

[quote user="Paul S"]While you are merely being empirical, there are actually plenty of devices that aim to "benefit" the end sound of SS gain by using tubes to "condition" the signal from DACs, etc. Also, there are plenty of commercial widgets ...

Guys, I am not kidding, something is VERY right in the sound of that tuber crossover combined with my SS amp. Even the ULF in this configuration has some properties that I would like to have improved but the from more holistic perspective the int...

I kind of never paid too much attention to it a few years back but lately more and more it become to fascinate me. I am taking about the Macondo/Melquiades tandem’s ability to demonstrate distinction between pitches at alarming high level. Sure ...

[quote user="darkmoebius"] I would never just jump in and attempt to build the Melq (or any other amp) without months of studying the design … [/quote]
Good motivations. To simplify everything: the Melquiades was at attempt to make two stages, capac...

Splitting the Lamm ML3 thread: http://www.goodsoundclub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=3595

[quote user="difool"]What is the benefit of using 834PT in dual mono over a stereo 834PT? [/quote]

Hello Romy
I am in a similar situation although not as far along as you since my "phonocorrector" experiments are yet to start. I in fact have the same valve types lined up so when I discovered your site yesterday there was a strong assonance!

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Sorry, Anthony,
I do not follow what you are asking. What does it mean “panel meter on the DHT channel”?
My DHT channel has a plate current matter. I find it useful but not truly necessary.

There are a number of similar units out there. The Velodyne specification is very fine:

Mumford,
Let clear first with terminology. You post said about “Incorporating active crossovers into DSET” and I think it is not what you are interested; at least it is not what I am practicing. An active crossover implies a use a dedicated active s...

I have to admit that although the Macondo “Water Drop Tweeter” sounds very good but I do not have that “shocking sound” that I got from the “Water Drop” during my initial introduction to it. I kind of always felt it and I thought that I get use t...
