[quote user="Romy the Cat"]From where I am staying Injection is not debatable. What dubious is - the methods of Injections. The large panels of Layered Sound has own advantaged and own disadvantages. I was considering in past to use another Red injec...

[quote user="Winnie"]Firstly let me say that I believe musicians could be just about the most important people to judge the quality of Hi Fi. They know how the music sounds during creation so can best judge if that quality has been preserved (less de...

[quote user="stevie7V"]Further, as Shelley is also a very accomplished classical pianist, I'd expect his system to sound very realistic as well.[/quote] There have been a lot of discussions about this before, but one must always take this sort ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]If you consider APS PurePower as just a power treating or regenerating devise then I feel that the whole “kinky” point of this devise might be missed. We get horrible sound with bad electricity and we are accusto...

The idea of 360 degree radiation of sound has great intuitive appeal to me since I feel the best recordings are done with two omnidirectional microphones. The most precise reproduction of the musical event would seem to be: sounds enter microph...

[quote user="Paul S"] I was simply amazed years ago by the little Sony "Pro Walkman" tape recorder, which could literally create and play back material that was sonically better than most records.[/quote] I also have used a professional DAT recorder ...

The interesting thing about the Bottlehead people is that they are pretty good guys. "High and outside" is I think Paul Stubbelbine, who is an expert at mastering. He remastered my girlfriend's last album. I was very impressed. His ...

The question in my mind Romy is: why? I will be interested to hear your comment on what your goal was to learn about your system in introducing these and what the results are. After the extent to which you have described the sound of your...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I did not evaluate the contribution of each change incrementally but I might report that the whole package works extremely differently-positive.[/quote]I am kind of disappointed, since you typically advocate a very careful ...

Well,It is funny since they are identical digitally recorded tracks you would think they are the same. I would very much be interested to know if the binary code is identical or not for the two tracks.I listened to DAC3, which sounds like a rea...
|
|
If it was not clear from my oblique comments before, I agree with what all have said, DAC1 seems to be techinically more correct but at the expense of some information loss. DAC2, which I prefer, has more distortions but also has more complete ...

When I listened to DAC1, I felt like I was in a very clean lunchroom as part of a taste test experiment with German scientists to try different crackers. Everything is so clean and tidy. The crackers are tasty, but they are spending an ob...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Does K-Stereo unit deal with Soundstage or with REAL spatial reconstruction? What is the more interesting in the results of K-Stereo unit would be to learn if it deals with spatial reconstruction via makin...

Well, this kind of reminds me of an experiment I did with multiple speakers each with a varied delay built into the signal path to emulate room reflections. This allowed me to manipulate and move the image around. The end result is to min...

Hi! I have got these 6E6P tubes from Georgia (in the former USSR, not the home of sweet potato pie). I have removed them all from their protective glass packaging, but I am unsure of how next to hook them up.Adrian...

Wow! Paul, I have to say you really hit the nail on the head this time; whereas usually you strike me a bit more obliquely:[quote user="Paul S"]...the Berning ... makes the music happen as oposed to letting it happen...[/quote]This is exactly w...
|

Well,Berning is a genius to be sure. Here he fixed his sights on the "evil" output transformer. Every part of the circuit alters the sound somehow, of course, and the goal is to find the least damaging topology. The question is aske...
|
|
It was not so long ago that the Super Milq was a twinkle in Romy's eye,and now it has come to the point he is a strong proponent of DSET (not to be confused with DH-SET). I am always a big believer in the power of topology. I was thinking about...
|
|
I was so impressed by the concepts Berning put forward, though Romy correctly points out that it solves some problems whilst creating others. As is always the case, topological change is like a chess game. Anyway I actually bought a Berni...

I'm sure we'd all like to find out the specifics of this amplifier's design and theory, without any unnecessary mystery. It would be nice of you to illuminate us all as to the details in a non-asinine way. 0.o...

Well, I'll stick my neck out and tell you what I think. I would say that it sounds right now that you have a kind of undefined idea of how you understand the sounds of audio reproduction. Sort of on the level that you know that you like s...
