Scooter, I was thinking myself if it was a pirated CD and I very carefully inspected it, I did not found any signs of not authenticity but I am not expect in it. To me it looks like a legitimate DG album. Though I admit that with contemporary mea...

I'm not sure exactly what I expected from swapping the digital cable at this point, but what I got was not it.Before I bought the Belkin Synopsis cable I just swapped out, I had sought out and purchased an Acoustic Revive cab...

[quote user="Paul S"] I wonder how many cities have good FM programming and broadcasting? Los Angeles was great, back when I lived in Venice, with interesting stuff going on around the clock. San Diego is quite limited, and I get Bupkis f...

The played today a little with Vitavox S2 driver with electromagnet and made some measurements. Measuring the relative magnetic force (I use Hirst GM04) I found out that increase current up to 3A linearly increases the magnetic force in the gap...

Jessie, at the home page, in the left, within the GoodSoundClub Section there is the “Announcements” item of menu, which will bring you to the thread with the instruction how to upload the images to the site.

This week I will be trying to address why the Milq midbass is clipping. This is very interesting one. Currently the Melquiades LF channel uses an output transformer 700R to 5R or 11.83 to 1. I thought before that I have much lower ratio, like 5:1 bu...

There is absolutely nothing in Fane 8M specifications that is responsible for the diver sound. So, what is the purpose to ask about the new specifications?One might think that someone can use “specifications” as an assu...

Keith,
you see, in Alphas the MF driver does down to let say even 500Hz then it mans that they need to bring those bass W-bins unto 500Hz but it is imposable even theoretically. Let me to expanse, it I very simple. When a “reflected” horn fires up a...

Actually I do not have the instability issue sorted out completely...I'm talking about circuit instability now, not the tube instability. Let us imagine all tubes are rock stable.As I see it there are at least two major sources of instability, in the...

With the omnidirectivety paranoia many people might loose from attention that fact that in order to be good omnidirectional speaker the RAAL new speaker has to be just a good conventional speaker first. The new RAAL speaker (does it have a name?) as ...

Hello Malinowski,
Sounds like you may already have the necessary experience in working with plaster, but in case you're not used to making anything this large:
For the final horns, especially if they are large, use hard modeling plaster. My up...

Collin,I am pleased that you found my suggestions worthwhile.
I approached the issue of your music room with two questions in mind:1- How to avoid the structural angle from interfering with the sound2- Would an enlarged room be worthwhile...

I have just taken out of my system a First Watt F5 clone Tim Rawson amp, It was substituted by a Telefunken PP amp with 6AQ5 tubes. Let me to explain.
My system consists of 6 way horn loaded speakers. I have a round Tactrix...

[quote user="manisandher"] For the past few months, I’ve been looking for a solution to a problem – how to recreate through speakers the same sound that I get through headphones. [/quote]I very much applaud to the desire to have speakers that do ...

[quote user="haralanov"] So the tweeter is always needed. The bad thing is it deforms (in 99,9999999999999999999% of the cases) the perfectly round audio window, formed by the midrange channel and "pull" some notes sometimes at its axis. These are of...

I was thinking about this when posting on the "deathbed audio wisdom" thread, where I said that to accept that there is a distinction between live performances and recordings, make peace with the notion, and derive the greatest pleasure from both bei...

“…stop by and bring some of your music….” – how many times we hear when we invited to listen someone’s playback. I am sure all of us have a selected favorite recording to assess playbacks and I would like to share some of mine that I have been ...

Romy, I do agree with all your comments. It is true that the magnitude of the rubber taste very much depends on the crossover frequency. I used them below 64Hz, but with first order filter, implemented before the amp that drives them. With that kind ...

It is nothing to do with Wisdom. It is my principle of application of “cost” as a common sense design tool. I do not bitch that Duelund caps are expensive. I just try to find a rational solution for using them that would embrace their price. My ...

I am not a big fun of Dvorak 9th under Ancerl. I’m not big fun nether the orchestra’s balance nor the recording quality. Anyhow…
I do not think that that you need to worry PH-77’s accuracy of curves or the comfort to switch them. It looks lik...

I was wondering what the noise of stereo signal come into FM and are any ways to reduce it? Naturally we get out stations in mono mode with practically no noise at all. The best tuners more then 85dB signals to noise ratio – that are very high number...

Keeping harassing different people bout the most interesting options for multiplex decoder for my Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 I was wondering if it makes sense to me to use the Rohde. It is a very good tuner but it is not necessary result in better s...

I keep thinking about the strangeness of my phase inversion.
I still do not think that it should be this way. My leading explanation is because
I did not implement the crossover precise. If the crossover called for let way
63mH coil and 795uF cap ...

It is complicated. Any tweeter is different and the RAAL’s “Water Drop” tweeter is more different then others. Almond any other tweeters that I heard this tweeter has something absolutely unique- it has no annoying upper MF nose. When I asked Alex to...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Eli, I do not think that it is PurePower objective to grab your money and to run. They are notorious with delays and it certainly might be unpleasant. With all due respect: 2 month delay is kind of nothing and if the unit ...

[quote user="HookEm"]The reproduction does not seem natural... too far away from what I would hear at a live event (e.g., female vocalist). Sort of bright and fatiguing at times. I may not be using the proper terminology to describe it, but I do...
