It is not necessarily so. You do not complain about HF harshness due to electricity problem. You complain only about excessive higher frequencies. However, the excessive higher frequencies might come from zillion another reasons, including the topolo...

[quote user="Bill"] I have set up a 16 channel system with 7 floor Edgar horns, six inexpensive height, and one overhead speaker (all under $150 each) and one subwoofer channel, all controlled by a Trinnov Altitude 16 pre-pro, which is a computer...

It is kind of sad day and I think I will take a break for a week or two and will not be playing with my speakers. I begin to integrate the 15-in woofer with Remedius and it was not as simple as appear. I do not think that the location when I have my ...

So far, I am listening without specialized electro-mechanical
delay enhancement, so any space I am hearing is either a matter of "cues" captured during recordings, cues added to recordings by engineers or similar,
or they are sonic artifacts result...

What fascinates me is the whole idea of room acoustic being basically invisible to us - despite measuring differently, we don't really notice the effects of room acoustics in the rooms we aren't actively listening in. Your friend's voice in an audito...

Hi Romy, I suppose I carry in my head, a general approximation of the sound of an orchestra. Whether that is how it sounds in a hall in Birmingham, London, Tallin, Paris or wherever else I've been to concerts doesn't matter. While the acous...

Hi,[quote user="Romy the Cat"] People frequently ask me what would be a good speaker to buy for $5.000, for $10.000 for $20.000 for $50.000 and so on. The more I think about it looking at the park of available loudspeakers the more I come to the obse...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Indeed, I did not realized that I shifted my thinking in this thread and an in my general views from the ways of using those “Resonating Oops” to the subject of Injection principles. I think I did it because Injection, as I...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Arno, I am glad that you take my comment with right attitude; this is indication that you are not dead, despite the fact that you are building a back-loaded horn. I do not think that you find a lot of useful horns informat...

This week two audio persons visited me. Both of them experimenting with loudspeakers of own design and during their visit I discounted my Macondo channels and demonstrated to then the contribution of the each channel to Macondo Sound. Both of them di...

[quote user="jweiss"] It was good to finally meet you at CES at the Cogent Room. I guess that you really found Steve and Rich's drivers pretty interesting (you initially wanted to buy a pair of the midrange drivers, remember?) [/quote]
Hi, Jonathan....

Last night and this morning I have been comparing my favourite SS preamp with gain and the breadboarded 10y. I've been using my dac with its low 1.125Vrms voltage output as the source because I know what it is capable of and know its (lack of) sound...

I wish it would be true and I would be busy to build my loudspeakers. Unfortunately it is a lot of work and I did not have even time to look at my site. The r22, the power resistor is not necessary the one which mitigate voltage in your tube....

Hi Romy,thank you for your answer. On weekend i will rebuild my amp for the 6E6P-DR. You are right, the tube datas shows that pin 8 is a screen. On D3A pin 8 is Grid 3 connected to screen.I will try it with pin 8 lifted and connected to ground. I hav...

[quote user="drdna"] I am quite sure it is a ground issue, as it is noise coming from the loudspeakers regardless of source or volume. Lifting the grounds on the amplifiers… eliminates the problem. [/quote] If it so them there is no need to contact t...

[quote user="cdwitmer"]Dear Robert and Roman,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Good question, HookEm. I would say my answer would be 2, “Any single driver back-loaded loudspeaker in general”. Do not get me wrong, driving your, or any other single drivers would do fine by ML2.0 and you will be able to...

Hi Romy, I don't doubt for a moment that there are plenty of people 'who know' who will wax lyrical about the benefits of open loop eq in feedback circuits. There are people 'who know' who will tell me that valve amplifiers cannot be as good as trans...

I use my SPU Mono in 282 Micro’s arm with AU wand that was specifically made for the SPU cartridges. I run it 3g, not-oil-damped into SU2,so, the SPU sees ~60Ohn. I tend a slightly overload the typical MC cartridges and run them at 60R-75R of thier “...

Simply put, this concept has more to do with tangible results than most other things we talk about. At least, potentially. In the same way that a person might go to the ophthalmologist and get a pair of prescription eyeglasses to see clea...
