When my midbass horns projects will be finished the horns will be peaty much organic part of house and without looking at this thread an ordinary person would never understand what is behind and what it is for. When we look at reasoning for Carnac St...

[quote user="Frode"] It seems like they are ending their sale of horns to the DIY community. Also, some people say that www.azurahorn.com are closing down. Not good news![/quote]Which brings a very interesting subject: a huge failure of horns-industr...

There are no relays in the ML2 that might produce the “violent switch-on pulse… which threatens to blow your speaker”. What you have is a dead V2 tube. When 6C33C dies then it begging to produce the erratic pings. Juts replace the tube and you should...

sounds like just what Romy could have excelled in for a carrier ---- because beyond the maths you need to have EARS and DISCERMENT for what is being recorded and exactly how it's done. (I met some sound engineers that did NOT strike me very musically...

Yes for sure it is very nice and “polite” link with pleasant information, not completed information however. There is another aspect. The wonderful benefits and advantages of belt drive (and particularly with heavy platters) are well understood but ...

I lately look at the noise created around the Shelter cartridges and I wonder what is going on. Shelter was doing wonderful cartridges, more or less responsibly priced and people use it for years. Bunch of the typical industry scams in past did their...

[quote user="Wojtek"] and the forum which has already perfectly developed herd behaviour is most appropriate one. Yeah, I worded the post in a wrong way (as usual) If you're in a position which allows you to have intimate experience with most Mass TT...

Hey, Paul,
long time no see. It is nice that you got rid form that Wadia. Wadia for sound, any Wadia, is like a eating Peking dumplings made with no salt, no paper, no meat and cooked in non-boiled water. I always was astonished with the popularity...

[quote user="Paul S"] So now I am left wondering: If a showgoer heard the ML3 demonstration and found the ML3 undistinguished, what would it have taken to distinguish it? [/quote]
Paul, the “showgoer” it seems that was juts clueless what he is...

Sure, add 20-30g to whatever you use now and you and then your Grado will become useable. I have seen in past that some Morons who put their ignorant opinions in a position to shaping the public knowledge (they called reviewers) have written that Gra...

I need to admit that the unfolding now events around the hardwood floors do extend a rare opportunity for me to rethink the playback in my room. I do not have need or reasons to make any significant changes but there are many minor things, perhaps se...

Below is how my midbass horns feel in my listening room user normal lighting if evening listening. The horn look a bit too dart but they are the same density as the walls in the room. The horns feel darker because the Triangular wall is all white, fr...

Actually the popular stiff Denons (103, 103R) with compliance of 5 need no less the 35g of effective mass, but even this mass will not help them. The Shelter has a “normal” compliance, I do not remember how much exactly but I think that it is somewhe...

A few days ago I had an interesting conversation. An audio friend of me from Utah called and asked about one audio product that I used in past. Then he told me a story about his exposure to the product. He called to the product maker and spoke with ...

Hello Romy,I thought we were just discussing technical issues around tonearm bearings with a focus on the peciuliarities of the bearing used in my arms. I have no intention to sell you anything. As stated in my first posting, I do not want to convert...

Well, I admit that I was clueless on the subject but I was intrigued and I consulted my engineering recourses. It turned out that what I proposed above was not exactly accurate: for instance regular computers do not use I2S bas interface…

I did not say how my saga with APS Pure Power regenerator finish but it never finished. Since the end of the last year the regenerators is sitting in my closet and I have sent the unit’s main board to APS people for the “revision” as I do not feel it...

Yes, I know, Antonio, thanks. There are a lot of IC-based phonostages out there. I have no technical reasons to say that they should be bad but unfortunately they sound kind of “identically bad”. You see no one make them to sound in a “tailored”, def...

Preamplifiers: keys to mystery – or…. how a preamp might be not only a load-driving gadget.
Years after years the preamplifiers are being a “terra incognito” of audio people. I admit that preamps are a subject of my persistent curiosity. I was alway...
