Personally, speculatively. It's my belief that one or one maker *shouldn't* have to wander too far past this range for practicality and morality...I can understand if some goodness can't be value developed easily (even then, there could be probl...

[quote user="el`Ol"]I heard the Orgon and I didn`t notice any electronic colorations. The midrange of course doesn`t have the sweetness of an SET, but is the most realistic I have heard from a piece of hifi. The two things on my wishlist would be mor...

Romy,We have discussed apottted Compression Driver's before, and I would not commit to promising performance you would like. Howere, here is a place where spotted speakers might well answer your needs, without altering anything you are currently doin...

After thinking about this for a while, I have had a thought that should be relatively easy for anyone motivated to explore and I would be interested to see what others on this forum observe from such experiments.Fundamentally I think the injection ch...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I see some kind of so called “transmission line” that is fractured from multiple labyrinths where each of section acts as different resonant chamber… then I do not want to hear about “energy releasing and the rest crap.[/qu...

This is kind of shit that I hate. I went to AA and read a person said:
“Don't miss the CAR room... That would be Classic Audio Reproduction. But that's only if they are showing the same basic design as last year, which uses modified JBL drive...

All below is written by Thomas Dunker
Yeah, "sound consistent independent of signal level" is a very precise way to sum up my whole speaker philosophy. Anything that is assumed to be constant, but which actually changes with signal dynamics is what ...

Positioning your speakers in your room is one of the most complicated tasks. The advanced and audio- experienced audio people can position speakers with 5-10 inch precision and get OK result (as far as they concern) but here is where everything only ...

Antonio,Works just fine with ported, unported or open baffle. The process works on the boundary layer of the cone. This is the very thin area between cone material and air. The actual mechanism just disallows energy trapped in this zone from reflecti...

Among many outrages foolishness that are so common among the people who going high-end audio one of the most ridicules is use of Single-Ended Triodes and low sensitivity speakers. The people who have db-meters between their ears instead of brain are ...

When I read raves from low powered amps with such speaker designs I ask myself, is it product placement or is there a different kind of listening among Americans, Japanese, Europeans...?
I made a visit to an audiophile with Lamm LL1, ML3 and Wilson ...

How refreshing! Too bad he's one of a handful in an "industry" long gone bad. I sort-of wish he spent more time on in-home/hi-fi stuff.Paul S...

ROMY Your analogy of fitting the foot to the shoe is on the right track... Some times you need is a better pair of sox,,,You dont need to change the decorum of the Symphony hall..When you have a shitty orchestra,,, Sometimes rearranging the musicio...

Haralanov, I've spun this thread off the "Speakers for a Powerful SET" thread, as you suggested. I took a couple of pictures, but I can't figure out how to upload them, just yet. I'm also not sure what you could see from the outside, anyway.As for th...

hi Koshka Sr...the reply has been illustrative as usual... when you> finish you medical school you will be searching in very different price range. :-) yes, but then we have residency....5, maybe 7 years of *relative* poverty :-O > When you ent...

I receive sometimes emails for peoples asking me what to but and what do not buy. What wherever foolish reasons they feel that if I have interest in audio it means I have an interest to consult them in their purposeless buying decisions. I usually di...

Recently there was probably nothing as low in audio as the BS surrounded Kharma loudspeakers. Each single step Kharma takes is further and further in-depth Kharma into the realm of bogusness. It is not that I find that “Kharma the Manufacturer” or “K...

Hi Romy, I recently heard the smallest Cessaro and while I felt that the bass was not adequate for long term satisfaction it was also not a total disaster. From the midbass on up; however, the speaker is simply superb and one of the very best h...

"Speakers Corner Records revives classical music powerhouse with new Decca labal reissues! Much can be said about Decca. About how the record label founded in Britain in 1929 grew to be such a classical genre powerhouse, revered by audiophiles for su...

Hi,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]T, do you familiar with Stanislavsky's System? [/quote]In passing, not in depth. Stanislavskies contention makes a lot of sense. Again I agree that one should first and foremost work from a serious vision what ...

[quote user="rowuk"]
The Fs
resonance does have its width BUT that means that the 30 Hz PR resonance
out of my example is excited when the driver is not exactly at 30 Hz
(not that a 30Hz PR can resonate at 32 0r 28Hz!). By ...

This might sound weird but I have a mini usb speaker attached to my
laptop and they radically sound good ......

[quote user="Hugh"]The rewards of ideal speaker placement is something I've experienced as well and perhaps is related to DPLOS or possbily audio-moronism. While not easy to find or predictable between speaker brands the result is consistant.&n...

Thanks, Mani. My comment is about the 1948 Western Electric I generally do not like those types of the speakers. There is a community of people who use those open baffles, insisting that they are the only speakers that decay 6bB per octave under the ...

You do not need to listen comedians you juts need to look at some of the products pictures and you will be laughing. The 6Moons’ Jeff Day screwed a driver into a sewer pipe and then desired to write a “review” about it (I did not read it). I wonder o...

Romy, thanks a lot for your response. I have no idea how come I did not come across your website years ago. I found it a few days ago and I spent many hours reading it. I am greatly intrigued by the Milq and I have some follow up questions, I hope so...

I still find that what Polymer Audio is reasonable if to take under consideration what they are. The Polymer Audio try to appeal for a totally different segment of prospective customers – the Robb Report reading and the sleazy Rolexes wearing y...

The Morons™ at AA’s between selling to each other what they did not like and topping each other on their shoulders came up with a subject what horn installation would be if price would be no object. The question is semi-foolish as price is never ...

First of all, the people who read this thread need to understand that I use the metaphor “idiots owners” purely in pedagogical sense. There is nothing idiotic to run neither single driver speakers, to have very bad speakers or not to have speaker...
