[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I think this requires me to raise my voice as I feel that this presumption is very common and unfortunately very mistaken. Melquiades might NOT be a solution... A person should evolve his reference points and his assessmen...

guy, i noticed you've mentioned a DHT 10Y linestage.i'm wondering what are your thoughts if there is a relatively easily obtainable (in say lifetime quantities:)) DHT (or triode stripped DHP or DH tetrode a la 307A or 807) capable of d...

Continuing the thoughts from the post: A powerful full-range SET? What a bogus idea! What I would actually would like to see is the industry not to furnish idiotic loudspeakers with granite drivers and then trying to push high power SETs to drive the...

[quote user="Gregm"]Actually, that could be a viable commercial product: a "stereo am"p allowing for four channels. One hi side, one low side, per channel.Any moron purchasing this could be stratosphrically happy flabbergasting his pals by "passively...

Can you remind us how & why you arrived at the resonance frequency you have set for these drivers in this particular horn?...

[quote user="zanon"]…. I have a sound bar for my TV which manipulates phase so you can pick between the audio seeming to come from a wider source, or from a focused point source. So, for your action movie set it on wide, and for your period piece, se...

[quote user="N-set"]And paralled drivers? May I ask why you wanted to avoid them but would accept paralled output tubes?[/quote] I would for sure avoid any paralleling, would it be driver or output. Still, driver provides voltage gain and output stag...

[quote user="decoud"]For sand to work here in friction does it not have to be load bearing itself: i.e. inside a steel cage that propagates the vibration through the walls there will not be much friction, no? What you want is a sandcastle.....[/quote...

Happy New Year to everybody![quote user="Paul S"]N-Set, how do you plan to convert the 3 phase back to 1 phase? Also, it is likely that the whole house system uses the same ground. [/quote] Paul, each phase to neutral is 230V, so as I understand in...

Sadly I have no ADC set up, and the digital replay BBC3 offer is of course lossy, 128 kbps aac, I think, though the repeat broadcast should be ok. ...

Imagine you buy a cheap professional SS power amp. One of those AB or D class ones which can be bridged to provide 1,5, 2Kw or more. Imagine you feed it with a perfect sinusoidal tone generator set at 60Hz at its signal input, and that you ...

Idiocy aside - and there is enough money in audio to guarantee not all of the pople in it can be idiots - why is it that no-one seems to have come up with a commercial dual channel SET solution: one channel for HF and MF and another for LF? While not...

[quote user="decoud"]I suspect wavelets would be much better than a fourier transform and rather less good than emd. The reason is that since we do not know what features of the signal are decisive in perceiving it as real, a signal-adaptive techniqu...

A visitor of my site sent an email about Australian Patrick Turner who is geting more SET power by paralleling the 845 tubes. It is not uncontroversial amps but itis 55W of SET…

Have a hum through my center channel speaker, the SET amp of which sits directly in front of the pp200 about a foot away. It is not relaTED to the DC offset of the 2000 as adjusting that does nothing to the hum, and running the amp from the wall rat...

I am familiar with the fresh 6C33C behavior, and I do set bias much lower while burning them in. This set of tubes has been installed for about 3 months; the amps are operating about 45 hours a week. Before switching them on the next time, I'll t...

This is funny. I closed my house on March 16 and today is March first. It is lost a year passed and only now I begin to feel that my playback is back. The status “back” it means that al major problems are filtered out and I just turn playback on and ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I still, can’t figure out Zu Druids. I would heavily highpass it to use with SET...[/quote]Do you think 150Hz is too low with a 7W SET?In all honesty, I think I was heavily influenced by the Zu Druid 'hype' myself. I had bo...

and not very encouraging. The set up was as follows: a Lowther ex4 playing from ~12k down in a big ~100Hz tratrix. A Murata up on top, and a 15" Beyma on the bottom. The Beyma is in an Onken so the results may not be fully indicative of performance i...

If LF are sealed, I would suspect that the strong SS/hybrid would be better able to keep the drivers "off the air cushion". When the drivers get to that point I hear something I would describe like this: Take your fingernail and...

[quote user="JANDL100"] Re: the Mahler "Nanut set" - I think you might find that symphonies 2, 3, 7, 8 & 9 are not by Nanut after all. But please let me know if I am wrong about that![/quote]I got the CD SET yesterday. Here is what it...

I have not seen it myself, but I have been told that the French box set does include the complete symphonies (27 in all) plus orchestral poems, sinfoniettas, etc. I think that it does NOT include the violin concerto or the cello concerto. This box se...

user="xandcg"]I would like to know, if you do not mind to explain,
since you cannot drive your bass modules using SET, why you use Solid State
amplifiers instead Pentode or Push-Pull Triode?[/quote]
