The reason for posting is in a way relatively simple, some of us got the impression a few years ago, that it is not sufficient to be willing to pay any price to get a real superior unit. No matter what we will pay, in a way any commercial constructio...

I think it's a DIY construction...with the arm "floating in water".I'm waiting for the idiot who would try to make the arm itself out of water.Cheers,N-set...

All those "discussions" about the Sonic Quality from Schroeder Arms are similar to ask a Blind for the direction.(or to ask for a lab report from the latest hyped DIY unit)...

TKD has also high quality Parts which are not listed in the catalogue. I heard, some personal contact can be helpful to get their best units. They will be built on custom order only, in batches, when they made it, it is done. Price, well, when you ha...

a Hong Kong-based company DIY Hifi Supply is selling RIAA EQ modules, the first modulesthat I have seen at 10kOm. It is something that Thorsten did not do commercially… but if the silks sound good then it might be VERY interesting. Is anyone kno...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Topologically and according to all theories the SET is capable to produce dynamic range that is unspeakable for PP, unless some tricks used in PP amps and those tricks have own negative effect to sound. [/quote]I really do ...

...on the Placette. Biggest problem at the moment is that it does not have any gain and I definitely need some gain.What I have done is breadboarded a nice diy SS pre with 2x or 3x gain, dc coupled, current mirror, 100mA. It was started a couple of...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Audiofilofine, I have no formed opinion about what Rulit does. I do not want to steer the subject of the thread to the wrong direction but can you share your view and your reasons why you feel that what Rulit does is a fant...

Hi Romy…and fellow audio nutters. I’ve bitten the bullet, and shifted from BLH to front-loaded. Yes, I was an idiot, a moron for not doing this sooner. My project is ‘humble’ by Romy’s standard…but I feel it meets the following objectives I h...

I found 2490, so very soon I'll test how low it can go in JBLs 1x1m mouth horn designed for 2490.Also I've decided to order 270hz LeCleac'h horn from Poland (http://horns-diy.pl/horns/jmlc/jmlc-270/).If it works well with 2490, I order custom 240hz f...

Well, I never went so far as to call and/or speak with the guy, and I am certainly able to wend my way through the written hyperbole. I'm sorry you went through it (as though I had anything to do with it). Too bad, because those are ...

Well, I hope to find promising ULF coming from a DSP/Hypex set up. I just didn't hear it yet. As ever, I hate DIY, and I will only build my own if I have to.Best regards,Paul S...

I remember reading about a turbine subwoofer 15 years ago called the Phoenix Gold Cyclone or Typhoon. That was for kids in cars.Tom Danley the inventor had some comments:http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/subwoofers/55122-pg-cyclone-non-cone-subdriver.ht...

Those things are made to impress enough to buy whatever the maker of CD is selling. I'm glad you posted that review on DIY-audio although out of respect for the host it would be nice if you had posted it here first and out of politeness asked if you...

This is not a safe "project" for the average DIY guy, period. Of course, the copycats are the last to realize this. Dreamers, if you have to ask what a veristat is, do not even consider this.N-set, not everyone has your education and background...

What distinguishes the Nextel drivers from most of their competitors is the strong damping, both of the whole system (Qm) and the cone (short settling time for a paper cone, nothing that could be called a resonance). According to the theories of some...

Hi,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]So, I have no idea who was a target market for those TX-103 optimization kits [/quote]There is no "TX-103 optimisation kit". There is a commercial stepup product. It was designed to be sold through current, existing dela...

Well I don't know a better place to post it, and I do not feel it is enough information to justify a new topic.IIRC the ALE 160 driver is reported here (goodsoundclub) as having a 4" throat diameter but I found out it may be indeed 5" but with a "SUP...
