[quote user="anthony"]I woke up this morning to have the brightest thought that my DHT issues are probably caused by how I have wired up the filament transformers. [/quote]After rewiring the filament transformers this morning, I have spent all day tr...

It look like the FM recoding on PC is shaping up and I was able to make some test recordings with quite positive result. (Sansui 1X – Larvy AD122 - Linx16 – WaveLab Light – HD - Linx16 - Bidat). Unfortunately there are many setting on the card a...

[quote user="Paul S"]Murat, this latest information from you has gotten you farther along than you might suppose at this time. From what you now say, it sounds like 6 months would be a minimum amount of time for you to spend getting a sense of the S...

[quote user="TonyB"]The differences between the battery operation and AC operation are to be expected.One case is isolated (hopefully) from AC, the other case is not. If anybody thinks otherwise,they are fooling themselves. [/quote] Tony, the fact is...

Adrian, Romy, (Dima), First, I most certainly agree that the textbook operating point for the 2A3 is not optimal and can be improved on, hence my own design from a few years ago. If you are sticking with a 2.5K load, you will simply not ge...

OK, folks, here are the subject that bothers me for years and if you have not an opinion but knowledge about the subject then, please, share your view and experience. My interest is: how to slice and merge digital files. I have a large file, let say ...

I have been wanting to set up my components for recording of broadcasts for a while now so this would be good incentive to shift my backside into gear.My Sansui TU-X1 has been restored and improvements made. I am very happy with the results at ...

Hi Roman... the installation is a combined joint-venture between Endo-san of ALE (bespoke drivers and horns) and Be Yamamura's (45 W solid state Class A amps and digital software and hardware).

Well, maybe a little cussing first to set the tone. The older SPU's are now well sought after, many will end up in collections at now over inflated prices probably in the Far-East where they are worshipped. I've heard a few older SPU's and even those...

[quote user="steverino"]Romy, I thought it was you or maybe I read it elsewhere. SACD was originally a multibit high sample rate format. I believe Sony went to one bit for "security" reasons to prevent copying. I think it's hard to rule out digital ...

[quote user="nycparamedic"] But you also might have overlooked some variables that frustrate many audiophile attempting this approach. Was Kmixer in Windows changing the sampling rate of your music? If you installed ASIO or that other plugin, was it ...

Is It Live ... or Yamaha? Channeling Glenn Gould By EDWARD ROTHSTEINMarch 12, 2007

Audio Sonar Acoustic Levelling (ASAL)
As an engineer, I’ve been intrigued by the various room treatment systems out there…most of which are sound (excuse the pun). My own 4-way front-loaded playback system is very dynamic…and suitable room...

For a relatively small outlay I can go and listen to some chamber music, a jazz band, a choir or, for a little more, an orchestra. The quality of 'realness' I hear is consistent regardless of how good the performers are and how great the merit o...

Ok, thanks for explaining. I
few things I would like to note.
If your preamp, being
incorporated between you front-end and you power amps degrades sound in any way
or does not make sound better then it is not a good preamp. Period, there is n...

Music presented at CES 2005 was a disastrer. No one single room that I visited (and I foolishly visited all of them, I think) played any content-loaded music. I’m not talking about the tastes but about value of musical content and the intention of th...

user="anthony"]My preferred source is a Phasure NOS1a G3 dac.
The thing has no discernible sound of it's own. It outputs 1.25VRMS SE
