Audio people know how “live” music sounds and what impact it has to listener. Well not all of them know, and a large number of them never visited concert halls and are familiar with music only by the chest pressure that they experienced at pop-clubs ...

[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...

[quote user="Gregm"]Coming back to the "multi-driver" spkrs -- especially unfamiliar ones. It has taken me a long time to "optimise" the positioning of a pair of 4-way spkrs (9 drive-units, of which two in the back, in phase)
….
One difficulty in ...

Well, there are a few places that can re-charge the drivers, GPA can do it for sure but it is not practical in my view as to remove the drivers from attic horns and to ship them is more pain then to pay to GPA $20 to re-charge them. The re-chargi...

I spent most of the nigh today working in my listening room while
listening my Dunlavy++. Since it was deep night, I was listening quietly and
mostly Jimmy Scott, that I love a lot. What the liberating experiences was with
the Dunlavy++!!! One of ...

I always do call and speak with people. This is Internet and they write whatever they want! I always would like to confirmer that behind the web proclamations there is something else then proclamations. BTW, this Denis sounded perfectly complement an...

A couple days back reading the Audio Tekne’s Philosophy Section:
http://www.audiotekne.com/en/policy_5.html
… in the part of “Amending your stereo system to improve it” I read the following:
“Please use the carbon de-coupler wi...

[quote user="Gregm"]I would agree. I'd feel that the objective of "audio journalism" (for wont of a better description) is entertainment -- not an "evaluation" that can be used for reference purposes.So, the components discussed/presented are simply ...

I receive an email form a visitor of my site with a “news” and was really laughing! Yes! I hate to know everything but proposed by me “The Rules of the Audio Morality Propagation” do work like a Swish watch!
It was enough of one audio cretin (...

Most of you know that I built Romy's horns for him. The one thing that you may not know is Romy recently requested additional horns from me. He wanted some 250Hz tractrix horns made for an upper-midrange Vitavox S2 compression driver. Being very...

Thanks, jk
I have given a lot of thoughts to this topic lately and have a number of conversations with various people about the subject. A friend of mine from Europe, who is currently at fitness protection program, suggested that:
“.. in my "real" ...

Hi Adrian, why do you choose for Edgarhorns? Edgarhorns are among the
ugliest things I've seen in my life (pardon me, being a typical audio
moron I don't have any technical background so I can only say things
regarding to cosmetics, heheh). Could ...

[quote user="MusicLover"] SO you are saynig you have meaured the horn system in question and it is truly flat? I would be interested to hear your measurement procedure. [/quote]
MusicLover, trust me, John know everything that need to be know about t...

It is strange topic that I always had difficulties. I have a storage filed with all possible audio goodies, starting from some exotic goodies that people would chaise on junk-years for years and ending with Jimmy Hoffa’s skeleton. It is not that...
|
That is funny but I received a few emails from audio people suggesting that I am a nut because at I suddenly expressed queasily in a monitor loudspeaker. Ironically only one of them uses some-type horn loading loudspeakers and the rest use large floo...

[quote user="manisandher"]
Yes, understood. But does it self-terminate? If not, you will need to use a T-connector and a 75 Ohm BNC terminator at the wordclock input. [/quote]
Mani, I do not think that it is necessary to self-terminate it....

I overly impressed with the new way or routing the antenna input with my TU-X1. This tuner with this new input get amassing sensitively (much higher than original) with a nose of a good CD player – very impressive! Way more interesting as it was righ...

Yestoday I visited the NY show and I did something that did not do for 3 years: I bought a few CDs at thier audiophile’s fleamarket. I did not really need them but lately I heard a lot of positive comments about the superior quality of new SACD-relea...

[quote user="Stitch"] When you look at the data sheets, you see, that they have different Hz range with different weight. A reason why I added some more mass to my Micro which is sitting on a VP. [/quote]
Actually it is not my observation. In ...

Well, I did not mean to express any specific attitude to Bottlehead people - the only experience I had to them was a few years ago visiting their meeting right here in Boston (I did not know what Bottlehead wa all about at that time). The meeting was...
|
It is not a the thread about Allnic but LCR RIAA correctors, still there was something expressed in here about the Allnic LCR phonocorrector… and I feel bad about it. It is not that I don’t think that Allnic LCR phonocorrector deserve positive m...

Let start from the largest drivers and go down. There are larger then 18” drivers (23” and 30”) but looking at this magnet structures I do not find them serious. I addition to make the 23” cone stiff enough requires a lot of diaphragm’s mass or to us...

No mater how ridicules the title of this article sounds on my site but I was quite glad to see the in the May’s issues of Stereophile the Robert J. Reina review of Advent loudspeakers. I do not think that Advent’s review is a sign of some kind of sin...

Positive Feedback published David Robinson’s review of Lamm M1.2 amplifier.
http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue34/lamm_1.2.htm
Frankly speaking I do have interest to see what people might say about Lamm M1.2. Not that I care about a review’s ob...

[quote user="Paul S"] Speakers: I built a version of Dick Olsher's 3-way Diamond Edition BassZilla (hard to find at www.blackdahlia.com), and I tricked it out considerably from his mule. Bass is BR, 15" Audax P380MR, which is a nice semi-...

The people who suffer from the vintagtism in audio are special breed of Audio Morons™. Those people discovered a single focus of interests in some kind of vintage item and this focus became a point an unconditional dedication and fanatical devotion. ...

Ok, I think it is it. I close the experimental phase of the MiniMe projects as I have selected and feel comfortable with MiniMe results. The MiniMe Bass section is the very original MiniMe enclosure with the very same drivers as I plane from star...

This weekend I made an interesting experiment. I had a visitor yesterday. The gay is not what I call overly critical and overly demanding listener but he is not a typical Audio Moron and has from my point of view a proper and sane react...

[quote user="drdna"] I can tell you already it will work. I have experimented extensively with adding lengths of metal to cables. It works well, but you can do a lot more by fine-tuning the amount of metal and in fact adjusting it slightly from l...
