Thanks Romy,Yes, I received your advice in the past privately regarding proper size for 1808 enclosure, and I thank you for pointing me in right directions. Yes, sealed box is simple calculation using e.g., WinISD. I am experimenting with&n...

[quote user="steverino"]FWIW I got my own PP 1050 a week ago and am pleased with the sound. It is the first active device that sounds as good as or better than my jury rigged passive filtration. Thanks Romy. As for chaining devices, I tried plugging ...

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...

At some point last year, after I had been offered an opportunity to buy some Vitavox S2 drivers from someone in Paris, and some S3s from Germany, I decided to approach Mike Harvey of Octave Audio, AKA Vitavox Hifi, to get some information about how I...

I think this post need to have an epigrapher:
“We knew what we wanted to hear, and so we developped, and developped, and developped... In hundreds of small and bigger steps. Over thirty years. Till we were "there" where we always wanted ...

Yep, Telstar. The 1547 was use in Sony and Teac CD players and believe the first CD-SACD machines used that chip. I know very little about those chips and have none of my personal experience to deal with all of it. The reasons why I brought it up bec...

[quote user="alexd"]To answer your question about DAW output vs tuner. Well Tuner is not highest quality source to start with. I do not think you will hear much difference between DAW analog output and tuner analog output.[/quote]
It is unquestionab...

user="decoud"] It may well be that PP's equipment is touched by god,
but seems foolish to come to that conclusion without ever having heard the same
fundamental design done by anyone else. [/quote]

[quote user="Tommy"]I believe that you are right on the LAMM issues look at the sewers! The market is flooded with them and everyone wants to sell them including dealers and private folks. I have never seen so much Lamm crapolla for sale as in last f...

[quote user="hagtech"]Yes, steel chassis can be both good and bad. It likes to conduct magnetic fields, so you have to treat things appropriately. A little spacing under a choke can go a long way. Otherise you have a 120Hz motor.&nb...

Twogoodears,
I am sorry, I do not know what you mean asking me to speculate on these pictures. I know very little about ALE drivers and I would not make any guesses. The system design that is presented on the picture is certainly not of my li...

Beinum recorded the Bruckner 8 in 1955 twice, in April and In June. My comment above goes for June recording.
There is something else I would like to add in context to Beinum 55 vs. Lubeck’s Wand.
The Lubeck’s Wand to me is still the ultim...

[quote user="kodomo"]Well, with my unit, you are right under one condition. It does not matter if I am on the battery or the ac line as long as the unit is connected, it sounds the same but it does not perform good. However if I am on the battery...

The situation reported has been presented unfairly we believe and includes completely false information regarding PurePower. We were working to solve a problem with a PurePower installation in California for over a year providing three replacemen...

[quote user="scooter"] Indeed, this is a reference to how important electricity might be. After last night, I almost feel as though my equipment is a much less important factor and takes a backseat to everything else. At this stage, I am thinking...

DA, looks like very nice and lucid assembly. How do you like the sound of the thing? The output stage 200mA /187V. It is a bit too small but I will do. I do not know what the gap you have in your OPT. If it is limited to 200mA then stay there, you ...

[quote user="anthony"]…. so my fingers
are crossed that I can keep temperatures manageable without a fan.[/quote]I do not think you need to be afraid of forced ventilation.
There is a feeling in Hi-Fi that forced ventilation is some kind of derivat...

I mean to make this post with the observations for a number of weeks. The days are passing by and I hoped that I might get deeper to the bottom of it. Unfortunately I was not able to.
So, the Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 is feeding a modified Yamaha ...

[quote user="drdna"]
The VERY INTERESTING idea is that the introduction of noise as a dithering element for the analog signal (for our brain to decode) can be helpful in increasing the retrieval of information vital to conveying the Sound. Perhaps ...

Ok, it is a lot of information on my plate and I am trying to make sense of it. Below I will share my observations about the new Pure Power 3000+.
The first thing first. In the post I made a few days back:

Well, I finally found and implemented a digital front end that I can live with. I have been so cynical about digital up to now that I have kept and used an old, cheap Sony player (albeit one actually made in Japan...) because up to now it seeme...
