de Charlus,I don't think that you are taking the posts the way that they were meant.Your initial post started with a collection of what you consider to be the finest drivers for specific tasks. That is just fine and you may well be correct.The real j...

I looked at the schematic for Herb's 300B SET many years ago. It's been copied and slightly modified by many.... personally, I would not use it for a 300B amp... then again I probably wouldn't use it for a 2A3 or 45 either (I think my input/driver d...

[quote user="noviygera"]I am very curious what "properly made" means when perusing the tonal attributes of LF. What properties or specifications other than driver diameter do you evaluate when perusing a better tone?[/quote]

A lot of people ask me about those drivers and I’ll try to compile my vision about them. I did try most of the possible tweeters: dome tweeters with cloth cones, varies type of hard metal domes, compression drivers with aluminum, titanium, phenolic a...

I have a tradition of exchanging music with people in the end of the year. This morning I made some “selected” CD-copies to a local guy and among them I recorded my favorite performance of Tchaikovsky violin concerto by Tossy Spivakovsky. This kind o...

[quote user="drdna"] This implies that it is up to the stereo equipment to determine the perception and perhaps there can be one ideal stereo system. While it is consistent with what is observed, it means that there is no human variation in listening...

The other day I was listening to a friend´s system with nice Avalon speakers, only one 10" seemed to be enough, of course it seemed we were playing house when listening to music, everything was small and very nice and pretty...Now when matc...

There are many ways to deal with EAR-843PT. To my ears it works wonderfully, this in my case it coupled with Expressive Technologies ET2 transformer that probably takes in totally new league. I kind of so addicted to this transformer that I even run ...

Ok... Assuming the lack of time alignment is compensated for via a DSP:
There are likely large chunks of the frequency spectrum that go un addressed, and equally large chunks that are mall-addressed.
I would say that there are two main ranges ...

Yep, another TT but what does it mean “Analog is Back” and “new hope for the discriminated analog Audiophile”? This language is a crap that industry and armature cheerleaders develop to pump themselves and others up. However, in my view this lang...

We enter a complicated region as the lower driver we go the drivers could be used for different purposes and it is very hard to generalize. A 10-incher might be MF driver and LF driver. In my past I experimented with few MF 10-inchers, including some...

It looks to me that I will be able to live with my 6 driver
line array. Again no measurements were made but it is what it “looks”. Sound-wise it is very reputable and I just might
leave it as is. My current room is 6 larger to what I had in downto...
