Thinking about it again and again I decided for now to have integrated connection of my AV. The BlueRay player will be plug to the preamp of the main system. The preamp will drive two power amps: Milq and SS amp. The Milq will drive the full scope of...

[quote user="Serge"]Silbatone used a WE horn to play in mono and a pair of their own horn cabinets for 2-channel.The very cinema sound reinforcement looking horn was, I was told, a 16B. I will post some comments about the sound a bit later. [/quote]T...

OK, I can't resist dropping this 800USD "ultra sonic" record cleaning device in here. I couldn't make much out of it at THE Show, and I am still confused after watching the long video:https://www.analogplanet.com/content/if-charles-kirmusss-record-c...

Well, I always say, why pay more for the same thing? So it gets down to what they offer for the money. For 4,800USD I don't like the blow dryer in the record cleaner. And, despite what is said on the Kirmuss video I linked to, I do not believe the...

[quote user="steverino"]But the prospective Magico owner needs to know whether the Magicos reproduce the real Taiko drum closely enough to scare and demoralize all the JDs in the neighborhood. It's like those recorded barking dogs that homeowners use...

[quote user="Paul S"] I would like to hear something more rigorous and complex than "the usual" music the DIYers use to "prove" a design/system.[/quote]Was my thought too--"a girl with a banjo" audiopedophile(tm) crap.[quote user="Paul S"]Unusual TT!...

A wonderful post, haralanov, thanks you for posting it. It is pleasant to see that the person does not recite the idiocy that he heard from others but express his own thinking. I happen to disagreed with his approach. I do understand that driving...

[quote user="anthony"]Have put all my DHT's on the curve tracer to see if pairs can be matched for preamp duties. [/quote] It was very interesting to read about all of it. If you have a socket for YO186 then you can accommodate all 4V tubes and I si...

My lovely Japanese girlfriend enjoys teasing me about my love of Tchaikowsky. She thinks his music is too "sweet" and "romantic". I do love listening to Tchaikowsky, even Nutcracker. Yes, it is sweet and catchy. Maybe it is making h...

Speaking as a local audio guy... yeah the sound was poor but who knows?... whether it was the dvd?... the electronics?... the day? Plus it was Room #2, so...My policy, perhaps mistaken, in such a situation, is to enjoy the music.As to the OPPO, I'd l...

We in Boston are hit this weekend with a mean Nor'easter storm with wind, rain and show. They promises a feet or so and it is juts October…. I am having great time, secluding myself in my video room, lighting up fireplace, smoking my Cohiba, playing ...

Well, as I understand the iPlayer version is M4A files, which is low-loss compression of audio part of MPEG-4 video. It would be interesting to get uncompressed (I mean digitally uncompressed file). I also do not know that bits rate in that M4A compr...

I made the 543rd remodeling on the Opera room and move the video playback equipment to the new, I hope the last location. As I connected everything into PP2000 as it use to be (not PP2000+) but older not “Plus” version than I have some light MF buzzi...

Clark: You heard what units can do in my place.Romy: Took your advice and added high frequency rolloff to the woofers. The sound did clean up the way you predicted. Now if I can get my subwoofer amplifier back asnd rebalance the system.Paul: Am erxtr...

Romy - The sails may or may not fit the aesthetics of your room but it will be tough to get the fans to work effectively with them installed. I thought that a sail furling system might be an interesting option. There are different types but in a nut...

My understanding of Romy's point is that in addition to the designer's perception of what sound shall be, and marketing whore's mischief, we consumers share some of the burden of responsibility for the buying choices presented to us.

Something I see a lot of in studios is the "distribution amplifier", that joins and splits the audio (and/or "video") signals into any number of channels. I believe I want buffering, but I am not ready to track and impliment the "balanced" configura...

A few local audio guys temporarily donated to me some gear that completely out of blue made me to have my Opera Room operational. I have a big screen, some kind of a good projector, in few days I will have a good player. The sound is the Altec 19 and...
