I managed to get a hold of a decent demo copy of RCA LSC-2413 (stereo), which features the 1960 iteration of the Juilliard Quartet playing the perennially-conjoined Ravel and Debussy String Quartets. Despite the Juilliard's reputation of fast play, ...

[quote user="mem916"] OK, I finally have my sample re-recorded in a format matching your file. Details are the same as before. (I set the Tascam inputs to "bypass" and used the Callisto to attenuate the signal. Levels are the same.) The only chan...

OK here is another take of the same section. This time with the Aesthetix Callisto. I set the Tascam's inputs to "bypass" and used the volume controls on the Callisto to attenuate the signal to about the same level as the previous recording...

This very musical masterpiece "owns" me since my boyhood, as my mother used to listen to it, as I learned about its title getting older (without NEVER knowing who performed it); sometimes she was reading in dimmed light, a book on her laps, more ofte...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Tim, it is all very interesting and I would like to learn about the Proteus’ inner wire juts for a sake of general education on the subject. However, I would not go for a duplication of what Purist did. Doing it you will s...

Well, without any theory or gut feeling to guide us, we are flailing around. So let me tell you what my instincts tell me and you can take it or leave it.I think the main advantage of the EM is reducing flux modulation. There was a post recently by o...

In his latest YouTube,Romy mentioned using my prepro to time align my drivers.I use the Trinnov Altitude 16 prepro which has a total of 20 channels. 16 of the channels have balanced analog outputs and the othe four Channels use the rca and optical sp...

I do not know if it was because economy, because the Japanese events early on this year or because any other reasons but there is a lot of Goto drivers for the last couple months on used market. The prices go down and it looks like nowadays the G...

What I heard in your room on Saturday was superb reproduction of what was recorded from 40 Hz. up. This is ideal probably for a recording of a chamber group in a small hall without anybody present. One could hear the hall surroundings which replaced ...

[quote user="gordan"]Roman,I don't think I've ever read your explanation why not 2482? We are all on a holy grail path to find a (somehow) available good compression driver that can go down to almost 200hz in domestic conditions and there are not man...

This weekend a friend of mine visited me to listen my playback and there was a very illustrative occurrence. We listening my audio and everything was like it should be in the program. He was visiting my last time in 2002-2003, before the Macondo was ...

Yes you don't want to go over 0 "dBFS" for sure. In fact it is not good to even hit 0 dB from what I have read in an AES paper. Something odd happens when you play it back (I can't remember the details). I shoot for peaks at -2 or -3 dBFS when...

Hi,[quote user="morricab"]You may be right. It would perhaps be worthwhile to look into "better" transformers but I am not sure that an advantage can be found over just going RCA to XLR adaptor into the balanced inputs and thereby bypassing the...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I do not think that the fluid is a big deal. I think the fluidness of the isolation is the key, I would use different liquid. In my past I tried silicon and Scotch Whisky and the result was very good. Would it be possible ...

I think guessing what the hell they did with tweeters would make since if whatever they did sound right. Since Living Voice’s is not the company that has a lot of exposure in US I do not think I will ever hear those speakers. Even if they have US rep...

Well, I decided it was time to start using some "proper" interconnects between the preamp and DSET's, ordered them and had them delivered. To date I had been using cheap interconnects from the local electronic shop (literally $6) which should be ok...

Which 2A3s and other output tubes have you tried so far, and how do they sound and compare in your amp/system?Also, remember that you may have to tweak operating points a little to get the most out of any of the tubes you try.

Okay, I think I understand.... and thanks for the link on the YO-186... if I can ever locate some of these I'll be sure to grab some (hmmm, a trip to Russia perhaps). As tubes get very hot internally, there were some procedures for trying to eliminat...

Hi Dima,Yep, I really think that I get this one right: I never take the time to do any research about it until your posting came. Luckily, I got the clues in less than 15 minutes. If only other things can be like that...About VR tubes stability, now:...

[quote user="drdna"] Exactly. Thus, it suggests a ground loop internal to the PP2000, doesn't it? [/quote]
In my view it is highly unlikely as a definition of loop itself implies two contacts to ground and PP2000 has only one. I do not think t...
