Well, the Ultimate Turntable. I had the chance to listen to some personally. Most have one in common:Overrated and hyped from deaf "reviewers"And .... price tag has no direct comparison to sonic excellence ... or a lot of technical features which are...

I was listening last night a string quartet rehearsal. The play was for the most part justifiably non-so-glorious and I was thinking about my little audio things. For sure our upper MF drivers nowhere near where they need to be. There is too much...
|
First off, I forgot to mention an interesting observation: Before running the sweeps (previous post), since the drivers in the upper-bass horns are new, I decided to verify/optimize rear chamber volume (they are easily adjustable)... I wasn't expecti...

Romy,

Of mighty opposites.

Romy, thanks for taking the time to write a little about your history with Melquiades and diy. In some ways our stories are quite similar. My background is agriculture. My family breed cattle and grow crops and I am a large part in that ...

The first level of listening perception is Static Level. At this level a listener perceives musical information as a collection of the individual sounds and a listening awareness tries to evaluate the “convince-ability” of those sounds. At this level...

I want to kiss this damn thing! I agree with Romy that hearing a good FM redefines what a (true) high-end is. For the past 5 days I've been listening for live FM streams of baroque concerts from Gdansk http://www.actushumanus.com/

I listened to exactly that combination for a longer time (Wilson Alexandria + ML3...) and the "review" (let's replace it with product placement) is the same joke than Harley with ML2.2 linked with the Magico Speakers (simply THE mismatch)....

I would like to share more of my troughs about the ESD
acoustic. That are not truly the troughs about the company but rather the troughs
that come to mind inspired by the company come to existence.
I do feel that it is an ultimate we dream of et...

Anthony,
Yes, this is the exact configuration that I have. As you drive your LF channels down, probably it will be 30-35Hz with >2 order filter you will like the sound from them even more. I hope you have a good ...

Audio people frequently go astray in their thinking and actions and this creates a good breeding ground for all possible audio sale opportunists. I would like to explore one moment that has not a lot of public attention and to look at the moment slig...

It was an audio eventful year and I have experimented and discovered many fascinating things. Here is a brief summary of the 2007 audio-events and a short look what my audio happening will might take please in 2008.

As the life nowadays runs in a very different schedule then

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

A new WCRB, and a shrinking classical dialBy Jeremy Eichler, Boston Globe Staff December 18, 2009
In a city passionate about classical music, a lot of listeners get their fill by catching the Boston Symphony Orchestra and other progr...

.... the usual marketing blubber. The more expensive a High end Product is, the more superlatives you need to make it superior to anything else. You want the big bucks? You need a big mouth first.but we all know how this business runs. What amazes me...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] For a casual observer it might appear that I am constantly fought with my ULF, finding and loosing better and worse configurations. It might be so but I have a very strong sense of objective of what I would like to ac...

you listen if it you DAC outputs 1V?! No wonder you have no volume. Also if you

It looks like it was a new trade show a few weeks back in Munich.
I missed the excitement in Munich but the more I read about the trade shows the
more I am glad that I do not attend them from 2005. From what I hear about the Munich
20017 was the e...

Nothing like Musical results to prove audio concepts. It sounds about right but not exactly. I don't think results are musical. Music itself is just a media to convey via our sensory more higher aesthetical ethical and to a certain degree c...

A few years ago a friend of mine, an audio manufacturer in Europe, in response to my Macondo Mini-Me project told me that my Macondo Mini-Me speakers were crap but the name I come up with for my Pilot acoustic system was ingenious. Well, he was n...
