Yes indeed. The company was originally Nova Physics and appears to have been sold on to Sam Laufer, a lawyer by profession originally who brought in Mark Porzilli of Melos and Pipedreams fame. I do not know if this company actually manufactures or se...

I experimented with a DEQ2496 on and off for about 6 months, and had a love-hate relationship with the unit. I eventually dumped the machine. The unit has a ton of features and in someways makes conceptual sense, in someways does not make practical...

I would like to share my 5-way horn project.
The idea was to have full range system, so the first horn built was Tapped Horn.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I personally, dealing with horns do not use theoretical bases to observe what happen with them and I tend to use purely empirical ways. It is my believe that NO one TRULY knows what the hell it going on with horns and no on...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I bought a few Linn Records own recordings of Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Dunedin Consort. They pushed them as “Studio Master” but they are WMA files – means the re-rendered compress...

[quote user="manisandher"] Oh yes, I've tried this for sure. There is a difference between the three modes; DIG_IN, REFWCLK and MASTER. The first two seem to add something in the HF that I can imagine many people judging as being 'extra resolutio...
