I don't know about the SMS but a few people have tried to clean up the Behringer DCX. I pulled all digital correction out of my system before investigating further but found some interesting mods to the output stage during investigation last year...

Hi Roman and glad you read my minimalist reports;-)))...as always, I'm only hinting, suggesting further reading and/or WEB surfing...I'm (trying to) attach a link with Hiraga's essay/review after Klaus' and Reinhard's visit, last June...I'll possibly...

"French designs where they have been built into a raised floor area"If you have a flat ceiling you can put this LeCleach Idea attached to the ceiling.You will place some sound absorbers and/or difussers on the rest of the ceiling anyway: with that y...

Well, Bill, I disagree what you're
saying. I disagree with surround sound, I disagree with the concert Hall
experience and I disagree with objectives to reconstruct concert Hall
experience. I'm not denying concert Hall experience itself I'm just s...

Klaus,I should start by saying that I'm not a scientist and not an engineer. I arrived at the following conclusions as a result of a little research and some thinking about the problem. It is possible that I am incorrect.I don't know how yo...

I always had a strange thing with Wagner – I appreciate and deeply respect his music but I never liked it. It is not that do “not like it” but rather I just do not feel that Wagner’s things are the part of my sonic realization of world. As I wrote be...

I do not know how “extraordinary experience” it will be but the BSO for the first time with Levine went to European Festivals Tour. The Brits, French and Germans will be able to catch 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...

Last year I am in obsessive and compulsive quest for most interesting Third Movement of the Mahler first symphony. I happen with me from time to time. I love that French funeral march into which Mahler stick so much twist but I am under a neurotic f...

Amy the Kitty last night was purring, purring and then asked me if I want when we have a free day in London to make a short ride to Paris. I kind of perplexed with it. I do not have a special feeling about Paris; I was there and it was a nice city, s...

I love Alicia's touch on this record! On side 1 she plays the Italian Concerto and the French Suite #6 in E; on side 2 she plays the Fantasia in C Minor and the English Suite #2 in A Major.This stereo recording is very nice, too, to the point w...

Romy, I suspect that 200 Hz high-pass will be too low for that driver, even 2nd order, and almost certainly with just 6 dB roll-off. I think more like 500 Hz with 1st order, and might still require the coil.Yellow-type drivers take on and ...

I was sitting there in a sushi place (eating sushi...), with "Sports TVs" buzzing away in the background, when the chairs the "sports talker guys" were sitting in suddenly caught my eye. This was the first time I realized that some chairs like these...

...you usually are quite thorough in your assessments.I use Macondo also for watching concerts and would also really appreciate any insight you may have into making surround sound successful even though this is not what you are doing here. The Trinn...

The English language got so big because we English speakers have long simply adopted words and phrases from other languages to try to better describe things. Americans at times use the word "ensemble" to speak of what we discuss here, but I think th...

People are not required to like or dislike anything. I guess the question you raise would require some additional info to answer. Some people have Austro German music as their reference and therefore don't really like styles which are at variance, fo...

Very sad news. I never meat him and we never listened anything together but I did read a lot of his internet posts and his thinking. Jean Michel was for sure in many ways data-only oriented person, it is the domain where I do not particularly strong ...

I also thought London should have more and better classical stations than Madrid. In Spain we have only two or three sindicated broadcast nets and but for the Radio Clasica channel and RNE3, all the others are always programming crappy music and "tal...

Sure, it is a matter of personal preference but to my taste anything shiny of glossy should not be used in horn or in audio… unless you are French of course :-) As far as I concern everything should be absolutely black, completely not glittery,...

Hi Romy,How do I stuff the SME headshell (or other headshells) with silicon? I am tech idiot and can't imagine how to keep the silicon from just running out of the headshell, is there a type of silicon that dries after application I guess? By the way...

Some people say the BSO is the most "European" sounding US orchestra. Well, when listening to the recordings of the orchestra under the baton of Charles Münch it sounds truly wonderful and... indeed like a fine European orchestra. The Deutsche Grammo...

Thanks, Rony, the same good holidays wishings to you. It was ironic that you mentioned the “Samson et Dracica” in your late email. I have a friend of mine, a local French guy – Jerome, who gave me the Chung’s performance of this opera a few months ag...

It came back to me after a few years. I heard is before with Paris Conservatory and with all French pianists and conductor - it was very pleasant. Now it came back to me with young players from an Asia, most likely Korean CD, where I cannot read the...

I wonder if you can do some "sound forecast" just by looking at them. The drivers seem to be of some sort of synthetic plastic material, which were true, I fear wouldn't sound much of my liking. They remind me of the Watt&Puppy, Joseph... and som...
