I remember seeing this echowars guy all over the boards with respect to vfet amp work. I don't know his work and don't remember where he is located but might be worth pinginghttp://audiokarma.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45419&highlight=b-2 htt...

HI AllHas anyone one here have any experience with Yamaha 6681B. I have a good pair with working original diaphragms lined up. I will be looking at using them in a 400hz Le Cleac'h above a 100cm 160hz Horn, possibly with a Fane 8m from the current GB...

It is not the amp but the Yamaha preamp that gives the problem. A good kick in my butt to finish the 801 pre a la Anthony. Apologies for spamming. ...

Nope, we eventfully do not get the family Yamaha C7 and now
we are on the market and looking for a piano .
From what we have seen and learned we now are looking for Mason and
Hamlin of 6.3 feet made before mid 30s of 20 century. They need to ...

[quote user="Wojtek"]With the stock radio-CD and buzzing fulrange speakers in my Civic I often find myself puzzled how pleasant and musical this crap sounds. If only I could get close to it at home -fruitless pursuit so far .Romy when it comes to tub...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Yesterday I was working for a half day at the part of the house were my Altec 19 are sitting and just to keep myself entertained I set up the Altec 19 to play from my add-hog playback: Sony $30 DVD player, Yamaha C2A preamp...

To move further I need to address a VERY important point.
The reverberation injection is NOT Surround Sound, not multichannel and not any
know to us typical encodings: Dolby, AC3... etc. To be honest when I hear the
mentioning of Surround sound I ...

Jim thanks for the review and for the tip. I was not familiar with the T-2 model before. I is really interesting what this tuner dose and how unexpectedly musically it performs. I listened today a number of broadcasts from the CDs that I am well fami...

Meyersound has the patent for a suspension that consists of copper-beryllium plus damping material. Copper-beryllium has a young's modulus comparable to polymers, but a bending-linearity that can't be achieved with plastics. The old Meyersound driver...

Howdy Paul,I mention the Dunnoys only in reference to Romy's comment about properly structured harmonics. What main channels I use is irrelevant to this thread. I'm sorry that comment is so blunt, I don't mean to be unfriendly, but I say it that way ...

I am in the process of setting up a DAW to record fm broadcast. Recently I installed a M-Audio 2496 DAC in a computer to do the recording. I am using a Yamaha T-85 tuner. Prior to routing the i.c. cables through the DAC I had no background noise f...
|
After hearing what a well designed FM station recording setup could deliver I became a believer. The question was what would be the cost involved to implement a good setup. After doing some research on the cost of Romy's components to capture fm br...

I would like to pass some observations on my about sound quality in my video room. The sound in my video room is what I would call very very good, I am not kidding – really good. It is delivered by Altec 21S speaker driven by Yamaha B2 amp and ...

Me again..In my search for another jbl 2482 I chanced upon a Yamaha JA6601 Driver. http://picasaweb.google.com/jbjbjbjbjb/YamahaJA6601It looks very similar to the one that produces these amazing response plots on the Azura 204 horn.http://www.azuraho...

Speaking as a local audio guy... yeah the sound was poor but who knows?... whether it was the dvd?... the electronics?... the day? Plus it was Room #2, so...My policy, perhaps mistaken, in such a situation, is to enjoy the music.As to the OPPO, I'd l...

Here is a link describing Meyer Sound's design philosophy, production and implementation:http://www.meyersound.com/support/forums/talkshop/drivers.htmThey began production of their own drivers to improve longevity and reliability in the field. These...

Well, since I will not experiment with many of them I'm kind of narrowing down the scope of the amps that I would like to get. In 70s-80s break there was a short period of time when Yamaha and Sony made top of the line amps around V-FET output t...
|
Last few days listening MiniMe with B-2 my patients was running out. With all more or less OK sound my B-2 had wondering eye about imaging. The amp has a minor fluctuation of gain between the channels and this fluctuation can be addressed by …kic...

I think you also mentioned that you were involved with the Voyd (which for a Pink Triangle user as I was back then, looked very charming). I recall Voyd being recently acquired by Audio Note UK; are you affiliated with them?Anyway, I actually wa...

Prior to three days ago, i was almost ready to give up on the Dannoy's as I couldn't get close to the sound heard at Romy's with his setup of the same speakers. Then i was able to add my newly obtained Yamaha B2 amps, and was once m...

"Nope, we eventfully do not get the family Yamaha C7..." Sadness."My poor wifey is very pissed with me...Well, it is given – I am pain in ass shopper but I responded that I was shopping for wife for 42 years and then got a pure-gold-wife for a bargai...

Something is very strange going on with me, I wonder if it is some kind of brain cancer or some kind of neurological things. I still have no speakers arrived but I was listening today broker 5 with Danlavy 2021 driven by Yamaha B3. There we multiple ...

Well, I'm pleased to own the vinyl set in question, and if I ever listen to the Mustard set it will be out of curiosity.I bet I'll even miss Gould's much-hated-by-me humming...Or do their computers add that "perfectly", too?Remember, we are not talik...
|
Sorry for reviving this thread without a good reason, but there is something I wanted to add to my comments about amplification. Recently I heard this system http://www.hornfabrik-eder.de/ which was driven by an old Telefunken studio amp. O...
|
I do not think that you really can trust an answer from someone willing to tell you what to do. Sure, the Klughorn is a great thing, but I have never heard it suitable integrated - which says NOTHING about the horn and driver but a lot about those us...

Not Amplitude. It's the rock solid phase linearity. It feels like a brick wall all the way up and down. I haven't looked at any graphs and haven't measured anything but that is my guess. There is no question of the great tone of vintage Tannoy but al...
|
It wasn't the caps. The 12 inch drivers were both frozen solid after being stored in a dry basement for 30 years. Looks like the coils somehow fused to the magnets.Ordered a used pair from Japan for $300 with shipping and they arrived after 20 days i...

Hi again Romy. I have never tried many of the 'super tuners' such as the Sansui TU-X1, Accuphase T-1100, Yamaha CT-7000 etc so I have no idea how this newer BW Broadcast unit would compare with them. Luckily the BBC still broadcast some very good qua...
|
This is kind of strange but never played MiniMe loud. If I want the concert style play from audio I usually use Macondo. The MiniMe usually plays at the level of 60-80dB but today I have fun to listen something and I cranked it up. To my surprise Min...
|
That suck, it was two days as my playback shine at full glory and then my bass amps blew up. It has heavy noise from one channel and sounded like it self-arouses like crazy. It turned out the one of PS large caps got burned and stopped to filtrate th...
