In continuation to the "A new round of Pacific’s DAC listening" post.... I have a number of revisions of this little contest between two DACs in this thread and in other threads. In all of them the Lavry 924 has a little edge over Pacific Microso...

I think we have to subdivide bass into upper bass from 100hz to whatever your midrange does and bass under 100hz and then maybe infrabass.
Front loaded upper bass horns are fantastic and I would say if you never heard one, you really nev...

The Hi-Fi is boutique products and it is customary to sell it for boutique prices. I am sure the economy also “helps”.

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] After observing a pair of AK151s operating in free air, though only lightly driven, I just don't see how they can possibly generate so much pressure, as the cone barely moves! [/quote]

Wolfy, first of all your
question is based upon wrong supposition. I never asserted that tubes belong in
the power amplifier and not in preamp section. I never remember made this comment

Romy, I have been trying to explain to myself what happened and how I got to it and trying to recreate this wonderful boiling point.
