I need to say that I did not do any experiments with any commercial audio equipment for a looooong time. Partially I have no needs as I do not buy anything and partially I have no interest. It is not that I have anything against commercial audio ...

I’ve been thinking about all this electricity stuff…
I’ve stopped using all power conditioning devices since Bush got re-elected, and I consequently left the country to start a new life in the land of 220v/50Hz (this BTW, is not an exaggeration).

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...

A couple days back reading the Audio Tekne’s Philosophy Section:

You should take care that you do not daisy chain the ground leads. Refer to following text.From my perspective, you should treat the L and N leads as one type of circuit and the PE as a separate circuit. Electrical codes, rules etc do not insist tha...

It is a recursive subject at my site that the sad state of music/audio industry is not due to some cosmic or social reasons but due to the very specific and very idiotic actions of very specific individuals who run the i...

*** I've received and read most of February issue of Stereophile. They review the last M1.2 Reference amplifier and the comments from the reviewer are more about how the music can flow and show as a unique event, with the kind of interaction with the...

Hi,[quote user="morricab"]As to the best transformers souding more transparent than the best resistors, I'll believe it when I (don't?) hear it. You claim to have heard this but I most certainly haven't. [/quote] Well, the claim is no...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]I do have a problem however with the notion that the reproduction of 'western' music requires different attributes than the reproduction of other types of music, for example Indian, Chinese or Japanese classical music. That...

As I have mentioned previously I’m slowly in a process of assessing other opportunities for my Macondo, since the EV T350 driver it too soft to be paired with Vitavox S2. While I am doing it an old observation keep knocking in my head. A few years ag...

Hagtech,
No one would argue that you are correct, but only from a perspective of a person who sells audio. However let for a second pretend that a product of audio is not a psychological help to the people who need it and not the amount of UPS shipm...

Yes, Anthony, any horn by nature has what I call horn arc. At the bottom of the range the channel boost output, then the gain slowly decay and become almost like a direct radiator and then the output begin to roll off at HF by horn until the driver r...

I went to THE Show again this year, along with a couple of audio friends. This year I was better prepared, with preconceived notions about what I wanted to see/hear, and where to find that gear. I did not try to “cover” the show, at all. I just wa...

[quote user="darkmoebius"] That's because "off the shelf" amps can be easily resold for little or no loss of money if they are not to the buyer's liking. The Melquiades, on the other hand, leaves the builder with $3,000 worth of parts not easily reso...

Hi Romy
