If you think that I am not an idiot then read further. I have been looking at my Macondo calibration

my God, the two drivers in own sealed enclosure at the left c...

While my Obbligato caps are traveling from Asia and instead of finish my MF amplifier and listening it I am blowing up my steam about the amp at my site there is a subject that I would like to share.
Melquiades MF DSET is made to utilize not o...

I can’t stress now much I am fallen in love with my new PP2000. I was playing it today all day and can’t not see any single thing that I would bitch. I perhaps is missing too much the sound of proper electricity but my feeling is that the new uni...

It might be not directly related to the subject of this thread but I do feel that it has quite a good relatively. Are you laughing that your Lamm made his new amplifier with a price tag of $126K? Well, think again. Do you remember as the ...

I always had a great gift of prophecy. When I saw W Bush for a first time I did not question what I have seen/herd and declared him as a retarget idiot. Good for us – the stupid Americans - that we allow this dirt to ruin our county for 2 terms. When...

That is it. I have felt that my “moving” project is over. I still have a few things that I am planning to do but the basics are done and the huge disturbances that moving to new home are over. The room is fundamentally us done and the core sound ...

Beinum recorded the Bruckner 8 in 1955 twice, in April and In June. My comment above goes for June recording.
There is something else I would like to add in context to Beinum 55 vs. Lubeck’s Wand.
The Lubeck’s Wand to me is still the ultim...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]A wonderful Hungarian conductor Carl Melles performed in 90s a cycle of all Beethoven symphonies leading Brunswick State Orchestra. It was not the New Jersey Brunswick band but the “Staatsorchester Braunschweig” – probably ...

[quote user="Bill"]Have a hum through my center channel speaker, the SET amp of which sits directly in front of the pp200 about a foot away. It is not relaTED to the DC offset of the 2000 as adjusting that does nothing to the hum, and running th...

Upper range effect is amassing, though not much different then with other regenerators. With PS Audio’s Power Plant the compression at MF-HF is also reduced or eliminated and that ugly heavy dense pressure blanket got lifted. The Power Plant while do...

Paul,
You certainly have an attitude toward the subject and I have no idea why. The subject of this thread, or put in this way - the subject of my interest, is how to deal with electricity problem and how to provide a playback with stable (sou...

I am in my 40s and I am observing (in context of the subjects that might be related to this site) that my curiosity in audio more and more become self-centered. I am not taking about self-centrism as a selfish egocentric type but rather I talk ab...

[quote user=" browellm from hifiwigwam"] "not your typical DIY moron". High praise indeed from Romy there… [/quote]
OK, I would like to make a commentary on the subject. I know that people who love to chop wood at DIYAudio site would consider...

Nope it is not my birthday today, I share this day with Mahler but I truly celebrated my birthday yesterday. Yesterday I got home and found in my mail box a package from my Japanese friend. I brought it home, I knew what it was, I put it on my ta...

The mouth of the left channel is done. Now it has the corners are glued in - you can see in the joins between the pans are chorded – you can see it on the first image. It is left just to finks beefing up the frame – you can see on the second im...

OK, as now, I see no problem to conclude to the project successfully in 1-2 weeks. The horn give much less problem then was expected, as my progress with crossover going on the midbass horns sound more and more disciplinized. Today I will be expl...

[quote user="N-set"]I'm wondering if the current 901mkII holds the candle? (...which would be against the industry practice, but...)It can be gotten for $1500 in some japanese online shops, but there does not seem to be much feedback around.[/quo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I do like the assembly. I o not fine it messy at all BTW. I would like to have inputs slightly closer to the grid of the first tube..[/quote]I'd prefer to have the ground terminals much closer to the ground plane and more o...

"Chesky Records is pleased to introduce the 192/24 series. These discs are not limited editions but one-to-one copies of our 192khz 24bit master discs. The discs contain standard 192khz 24bit .wav files that you can copy to your computer's ...

I have to admit that I personally care less about powerful full-range SET amplifiers. I do not take their sound seriously, in fact I do not believe they are cable to do “right full-range sound” and what I see then I always imagine them with huge, bar...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still, there is an interesting phenomenon that I never was able to understand. I observe Lamm’s show rooms from I think 1998-1999 to 2006 when I did my last audio show. Surprisingly all Lamm rooms at audio shows sound ...
|
OK, thanks. I would leave for others to decide what the “higher resolution image” might mean. It might be some kind of untranslatable Japanese folklore. The more vibrant color palette is definably a valid accomplishment, no one knows through if it is...

Last week I hit I my local music store a DVD of Eugene Onegin that was recorded live last year at Salzburg Festival. It was expensive, $35 but I bought it. Hell I thought that I know all committed to recording media Onegin production and I took this ...

I today was abusing my damn Second arm, trying to get my bass back from it. It was not that it had no bass but it was very shallow and very different bass. It had a feeling that it was not from there, it was almost as some kind of time delay in b...

I knew that Bruckner will fuck up my mind, but I am grateful for that…
Lately I tuned my attention to organ music, in fact I’m listening a lot of organ music. It might appear that my playback got to the point where it might do a full justice ...

[quote user="Tax"] Your post has had the desired effect and I am doing some more research into Fane Studio 8M, 16 Ohm drivers in a 4 inch throated horn tuned to 115Hz with the intention of crossing it from 70Hz to 500Hz . This may be similar to w...
