I got home today and was listening the music of my carpenter in my basemen cutting the wood for my midbass horn. I was slowly thinking about the location of my perspective lower bass channels. The Midbass Horns, if the things go well, will cover...

Adrian,
Are any of those new tubes besides the Chinese tubes are single plated? I have bought some very nice 2A3 and 6A3 double plated from 1942 and 1944 and it will give me an ability to see what is going on with vintage tubes.
I was not ...

You know, it surprises me how much less fan to listen my playback without ULF. Nope, the playback does not sound bad from audio perspective without ULF but it for sure a bit different experience. From a certain perspective to be in a room with U...

The subject of electromagnetic, or as they called field-coil drivers, popped up at my site numerous times. (Look as it list of related threats). The advances or shortcomings of electromagnetic drivers are arguable, I have my vision, but it is not the...

A week it trashing audio.
I finished with my client with wish I worked for a while, the contract with a new client kicks in 2 weeks and this week I do not work. Well sort of. This week is a big project on my aim – to reconcile the value of my...

It is strange topic that I always had difficulties. I have a storage filed with all possible audio goodies, starting from some exotic goodies that people would chaise on junk-years for years and ending with Jimmy Hoffa’s skeleton. It is not that...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Assuming you go ahead with the mid-bass horn project: If you decide to run the woofer towers along with the mid-bass horns, it is logical to assume they'll produce much of the range produced by these new horns. [/quot...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I have 2 ULF "boxes"; each has an 18" McCauley 6174.
The enclosures are sealed and each measures 14 cubic feet. They are made from 70mm thick concrete blocks.
Power is from a pair of M1.1 amps (100 Watts each)....

Strangely, no one but its architect has written here about the sound of the full range Melquiades, and so I thought I would say something with the benefit of several months of listening to a version of it. I say a version because though the...

It is so funny. As Kitty and I are looking for different
houses we look at different listening rooms and we have different ways to think
about room sizes. She think about space for her piano and size of oriental ran
she would drop on the floor. Wh...

Just incorporated this wonder into my system! haven't heard a live orchestra broadcast yet but even voices from the studio have something special, some magic aura.
This is how I use it:

[quote user="Paul
S"]Yes, insane amounts of money are wasted on "exotic" cabinet
materials and construction methods, for instance. And the misguided idea
of keeping it one narrow stack per channel does, literally, compromise the
sound, as does t...

All thinking about ULF are usually centered on 3 subjects:
drivers, topology and amplification. Even though these 3 subsets very much intertwined
I still would like to talk about it separately. We do presume that we have the proper
drivers for pro...

One of the greatest and the most important things for me in power amplifiers is their ability to differentiate tones. When you listen live music you practically never hear two identical tones. Even two identical pitches presented after the diff...
