A clue!You are not using the ground on the PP3000 unit and have ferrite packages on the incoming mains supply.I am guessing that you have fitted a clamp directly around the power cord.If this is the case, then you are using the ferrite on the ground ...

[/quote]In my new room I would like to accomplish my long objective to get for Macondo a new Fundamental Channel. I would like my Fundamental Channel to employ 170-180 Hz slow-opening horn and to use a driver with 350-4...

Ok, I shall stop to annoy lost in frequency responses DIYAudio people and to lay cards on the table, explaining why I consider that for now the Speedysteve7’s installation and his efforts are condemned to end up with sonic nothingness. When I read Sp...

Romy, Why do you think the improved sonics were related to the residual noise or more precisely the hypothetical delta of noise components from one day to the next? You were very non specific about what was better and to what degree. If you are perc...

I have been running my nominally 8 Ohm speakers from the ML2s' 4 Ohm taps for quite a while, in order to keep the sound from getting squirrilly and to keep the bass strong enough.Today I used the re-capped/improved K&K phonostage as a source and ...

Most of the technology to do what needs to be done has been around for some time. The obvious conclusion is that it is the ordering of the technology at hand that makes all the difference. As an example, when the first "modern" MC cartridges came on ...

Hi D.,Call yourself whatever you like, but you started this thread not me. I am genuinely interested (or rather was)and was thinking of buying your items but am puzzled that you are not clear, in either your email to me or anywhere in this thread...

Dear Romy Chapter 1 in the audio cyclopedia, you should read it because you are the won who lacks experiance when it come to building a sound system. #1 from were you listen to system from you should be able to look down the thr...

This is an interesting thread. Romy is correct that the hifi industry is not user defined or driven really. Manufacturers have a standard vocabulary that they are able to use indiscriminately to describe the sonics produced by a given product (detail...

In my case, I have not observed any fluctuations in sound quality other than those resulting from my own state of fatigue (maybe they are doing something right with power generation/distribution over here... I don't see many complaints coming from ou...

Only, we don't know much about speakers do we?In my kitchen I have a $180 (list) Sony mini-system with subwoofer that is very very satisfying. That price includes AM/FM, dual cassette wells and 3-CD changer! But it's the main speakers that do th...

[quote user="msaudio"]If you put your speakers in the back extra bedroom, you could have your cake and eat it 2. You will have a normal living room and your headphones sound that you love from small room will be back and better then ever and it don't...

I've managed to make my own room treatments thus far, all bass oriented and although some broadband absorption has been used the bulk is effective 30hz - 500hz. It is an architectural type of solution where I have a covered the front and side walls...

hello kids, a few weeks ago i started my hunt for a pair of speakers....i've been attached to my big system with a pair of headphones for the past year and feel its time to get some speakers to listen to music with (plus, i think my ears are now...

I am very happy that you did not suspend my account. Because i will prove to you in the future that my idea for time alignment is correct. I have only had one account with your web site, and your web forum is the only one i am a member of. Because i ...

[quote user="decoud"]…. but nonetheless it *is* a set of horns and driver without which it is impossible to give body to the ideas that you talk about. Someone who has not heard the S2, for example, in the way in which you suggest one uses it, would ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Rowuk, I think you were shooting to a wrong target. You are trying to refer to some kind of sense of reasons and rationale. Unfortunately the individual above looks like does not inherent to rezoning but rather willing to p...

To save people from researching the differences between Romy's and my systems, I'll note the principal differences here, ignoring our ongoing mid-bass projects, which will be different, but both are incomplete, so not yet in the picture.As concerns t...

[quote user="Chirag"]The only things I can come up with is the possibility of using musical friendly woods (not that i have a clue what the difference between oak and cedar could be) that resonate sensitively just enough to produce a musically motiva...

Yep, I do not like the rest of the Nanut Mahler at all. That Mahler 6 I think was a big accident….
The caT[/quote]Hmmm ... nor do I.I don't think Nanut's superb Mahler 6 was an accident though. ...

While seeking for a CD capable of covering a low mid range, say from 300hz or under, I am offered a pair of TOA compression drivers of rather impressive size. Unfortunatelly a seller has no clue what model it is, except "it sounds as seducing as ...

[quote user="Paul S"]Today I used the re-capped/improved K&K phonostage as a source and I drove the speakers first from 8 Ohm and then from 16 Ohm taps, and I got a very pleasant surprize...... .It certainly gave a clue as to why Romy would opt a...

Another "classic" "experiment". Too bad the average player cannot begin to get the most from a Strad, and too bad the average listener/reader has no clue - at all. I am reminded here of upstart CA wines being "more popular" than top 1855 marques in...
|
Well, yes... I've not been to prison in over two years! Apart from keeping me off the streets at night, the results when listening to one of the 40Hz horns were, dare I say, encouraging, though I do hesitate to say so, as the "evaluation" was carried...

priviet. I tried many ways. I cut the front outside faceplate open, and put a second driver on it. So that two drivers were firing onto each other face to face in one single hornthroat, rest normal single K. To my surprise the output didn't increase ...

Steve, get a little clue in what you are saying as your preaching on this subject of worshiping the butteries become a bit annoying. What battery solution I already use? Ruing playback from battery and the issuers with PurePower buttery related only ...

In my case, it has nothing to do with convenience, and believe it or not, everything to do with quality.Shrink-to-fit, badly-mastered recordings... These are the cards we've been dealt. Ripping CDs is the sort of ritual I hate. I nevertheless spend c...

This is a part of HigherFi site. They are in a very specific business and they do what they do fine. The site is pretty much enumeration of everything in audio with price tags. They completely silent and with no expertise of any kind offered to buye...

[quote user="Paul S"]Well, you can count me among those who are perennially frustrated by all the unnessary stupidy that goes into most recordings, that's for sure, although I have several hundred records that I would like to keep for the p...
