[quote user="haralanov"] Yes, you are right. Power – you have almost unlimited power. Dynamics – you have as much dynamics as you want. But there are a lot of associated problems with that kind of dynamics. The following illustration is taken by ...

Recently an audio guy visited me. I played to him some music as, as I uselessly do - from all possible sources and we ended up to have a conservation which sources is able to produce more interesting result. The people who hear my playback know t...

Ok, I made some further experiments driving this time my S2 driver from Milq DH DSET. The hell of the sensitively - it was too much. So, I went for 4:1 inner-stage ratio. The result was very successful and the amp looks like was able to get more...

If it is possible to generalize which group of individuals in audio possess maximum amplitude of idiocy and at the same time archived the minimum audio result then unquestionably the leading position would be belong the audio industry marketing boys ...

Well, I never felt that for prototyping I need more then one-channels crossover as by use of the poor sounding prototyping crossovers I never look at the system in it’s entirely but rather for the “technical listing” of just two channels that I...

Here is a snippet from an email from Jonathan Carr (Lyra cartridge designer) about objectives and considerations regarding cartridge loading. Most of this is old news, I only re-post it here as a convenient synopsis on this most misunderstood t...

Paul,It would be improper for me to write down what I have worked on over almost 40 years in the telcoms business. WRT a CV for example, I have in the past written it all down and the reviewers do not believe it. Eventually, i stopped bothering abo...

[quote user="hagtech"] It's difficult for me to guess exactly what the possible sonic effects of the ripples would be. I see a tube operating at a fixed point, having a particular distortion spectrum. Say -42dB 2nd harmonic. Then, t...

Devo, the GM-100 for sure is a good triode to get 160 watts
output power in A1. Still, it would be a good chose, from my point of view,
ONLY from a prospect of embracing as good DIY audio project. There is nothing wrong
then to do the good DIY aud...

Paul, l I have written about it somewhere: the passive speaker-level crossovers on bass channels are no good. Marko has 250Hz that with 3rd order would be around 10mH and 2mH. With air core then would be very large coils with huge amount of DCR – ver...

I spend quite a few hours playing with the new channel trying to ingrate into Macondo but so far not successful.
Since the new channel and the Macondo upperbass horn have identical sensitively and identical impedance I figured that I would drive it...

I was asked a few days ago what I think about Zandèn new CD player and I replied that I do not think about it.

Paul McGowan, the head of PS Audio send his newsletter with his comments about SACD. The comments are childish and in many way absolutely ignorant. I hate what the industry professionals twist the facts and go into pure falsification in order to ...

I'm following with interest the thread and must say that I'm baffled: Goto's "instructions" are - SIMPLY said - a mix between non-existent and wrong... I love what Goto's did in my system... BUT I think I did more with "my own" care, "my own" taste, ...

Regarding combined driver diaphragm area for ULF: Romy wrote: "...I disagree that using a bunch of 10" drivers is some kind of compromised in way. The six 10” drivers give me a surface of 2.3 18” drivers..." I recognize the relative and impo...

Romy,I might have overlooked something on your site but I understand that your ULF amp is driven directly by the preamp line stage. If that is the case, you may want to consider an old technique for integrating subwoofers and drive your ULF amp w...

Before I go into describing the concepts of Imbedded Macro-Positioning I would like to pass some overturning statements. They are not necessary directly related to the Imbedded notion but they do have SOME relation and I would like you to think...

I recently completed some upper bass horns which I'm now enjoying very much. Sadly I lack the skills of someone like Jessie so my efforts are crude in comparison, but they are working well for me which is the main thing.I already had some old frontlo...

Congratulations on the build! anthony wrote: Yours uses all toroids, or mostly so, which are more efficient than the EI that I use.
Why have you chosen EI vs toroids? The latter emit less.
Cheers,

Well, I spent today a number of hours trying to advance my observations regarding abilities of the one-stage Melquiades. It was quite interesting. Thankfully the electivity today was way better during the second part of day. I loaded the 6E6P heavier...

Bud, yes and no. They are right and the ultra high frequencies do pass any capacitors, indictors and transformers and I am attractive to the idea of filtering somehow by using the skin effect, I fins it is VERY elegant. The problem is that I do n...

Well, it took almost two month and much more money then I thought but I was eventually able to get very decent sound out of monitors. The SL600 sitting on my “fundamental channel’s” tripods did not do well as I told before and I was forced to s...
