Well, I thought there might be an audio solution, but it sort of turned into a musing about how much of the money we spend benefits us, whether the expensive music deliver system (fancy hall with bad acoustics? 400 lb krell space heaters?) enhances t...

What you say may be true. I'm not sure there was an amplifier available in the mid to late 1980's that would have been suitable for these. They did get good reviews but I suspect that some of this was due to awe inspired by the technical achieve...

[quote user="Stitch"]Btw. I think the ML3 is a good sounding amp.[/quote] I do not think that the absolute quality of ML3 is a subject or a question. This quality is not known to people out there, very much like it is unknown to the most of ML3 owner...

Sometimes we have luck when we listen to a System and we can have the illusion of - more or less - pure music realism, but the majority of Systems are sophisticated hi-fi.Not enough, the more expensive the components are, the better dressed the sales...

What did you know; I was in Barnes & Noble and bought a first for quite long time September TAS magazine. I do not subscribe audio publications but seldom buy them. Since I did not do it for as long time I though it will be entertaining. It...

Chris, I'm not Romy but I've listened to some of their products -- about which I'll talk later. First:[quote user="dazzdax"]Hi Roman, FM Acoustics amplifiers from Switserland have been regarded by many audiophiles (mostly the ones with lots of money)...

[quote user="slowmotion"]I think I see where you are going , Richard, with me it's the other way round. If I connect with the music I get exited, and for me personally I work towards a system that connects me to the music and the performers more. All...

[quote user="haralanov"] Now back to the topic. Most of the WE drivers are full of compromises but unfortunately no one speak about it. People just create hype about them, but they do not recognize what is wrong with their sound, and because of t...

ArmAlex the fun thing is that you read Romy posts here without understanding his ideas and copy paste Romy instructions in your Audio system and the result is lower than those audiogon guys (an example of your audio logic -> you buy gryphon spea...

Paul,
I do not have any reasons to say anything about bias regarding any other tubes beside the 6C33C.
The point that I was trying to make the most of the people out there do not have a proper load for this CE amplifiers. They feel that when thier...

I wonder why audio people do not WORK with their playbacks. This subject always annoyed me. Let pretend an audio person build up some kind of playback installation. It is irrelevant what would it be: a huge vintage Bell Labs system, a contempora...

It is shame that in 21 century we have such mediocre, not to say moronic, park of music servers.
