The good thing of having own dairy-oriented site is that I can look at what I was positing during the year and to have good grip of what was going on over the passed year. Still, although everything is on the surface, I would like to bring up few bri...

Richard Hardesty’s Audio Perfectionist Journal was something that was promising: it had no advertising or agenda and was solely based on the view one individual person. Agree or degree I with Richard’s view but it was his view and I do love high-atti...

Among all my mocking and humiliating the people who do audio professionally (well very few of them do it professionally, mostly they do it “for leaving”) I have to admit that there is one subject that made me to envy to some of the guys who do audio ...

I have owned a PurePower 2000i (prior to the company moving its production back to Canada) and while it had a positive effect on the playback it created more issues than it solved with its noisy switching recharging circuit and the internal fans. The...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]the “sound” of these oscillators/inverters is something
that describes the sound of electricity. Tesla for sure would make great batteries

I think you will only be able to decide about this after listening to some operas or other video-audio through the big system. The analog output of the video player may be good enough for the purpose, or it may sound terrible through the Milqs/Macon...

I think it has already been stated. Batteries in audio are inherently of limited utility. It is a tendency of audiophiles to dedicate themselves to a single "silver bullet" instead of building the system based on the particular needs and compromises ...

Let's first try to go over some concepts to see if the both of you are speaking the same language (from Sphile's glossary):
coloration
An audible "signature" with which a reproducing system imbues all signals passing through it.

[quote user="Axel"] I think, I mentioned it before, if your system works (for you) you listen to music ONLY, MOSTLY anyway, and all this definition stuff feels more and more like mind-fucking, that takes you away from the real thing -- the music, wha...

Ok, so you do not like 'soul' that you as the 'creator' have put into an object, that you happen to make what it is. - I guess that's not quite so fine by me, kind of stone-cold :-(Why would I CARE for a bunch of wires and a lump of metal, ...

The Targeted Audio Listening has nothing to do with general music listening and it is just an ingredient of a very narrow audio evolutions. It might be as stupid as just brainless acknowledgment of individual sound or as complex as assessment of...

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"] In my new room, I can't find the patience to listen to Bruckner. I can now listen to concertos and pieces with content in the tone and space, but if the music takes too long to get into it, I become impatient, then feel l...

I come across to an interesting thread at I think British site: http://www.wiredstate.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2047The thread discusses the definition of “HIGH-END Audio”. I am not sure that I agree with all of it. For sure the trims and de...

Romy, I have been trying to explain to myself what happened and how I got to it and trying to recreate this wonderful boiling point.

I wonder what will be left in audio for many audio people if 3 conditions exist in audio: 1) The subject of “one piece of equipment vs. another piece of equipment” is prohibitive. 2) You are blind from birth, never were able to see or read....

It is almost ironic, in the context of your original post, that you've refered me to "Physics" as a sort of generic introduction or prerequisite to practical musical ULF. But I do appreciate your applied thoughts on the evils of feedback loops, and ...
