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, the third phase is a bitch. If I have a n extra motor then I might try this

but for now I think I will try a regular capacitive static converter with a cap to convert the US st...

Here is a little update on my DIY suspended rack.The top TT table is made and preliminary tested for lekages.This is basically a 1,4m x 0,7m DIY Vibraplane clone. The steel profile is now filled with perlite. I feel it damps worse than sand+steel sho...

That being said, many of us seem to move away from pots and go to either discrete resistor switches or discrete resistor matrix schemes.As far as pots go, Alps seems to have the "good enough" market cornered.If you look through the site, you will rea...

Dan,
I do not know were you’re going with “next step”, but I do see that some people treat interaction at this site as another swamp of DIY movement. This endless DIY paranoia when people pursuit abstract BS objectives and fulfill bogus frustrations...

Of course, the object is to be sure you never have a situation where HV is on while heaters are off, whether switching "on" or "off". And the usual DIY way to do this with totally separate PSs is...separate switching. If this or a similar approach ...

...I think it has something to do with a small obsessive part of my personality, but as I have spent more and more time on this project I have wanted to do a better job as far as quality of workmanship and design and aesthetics are ...

Hello - pretty new to the goodsoundclub.com. Lets say I want to build my own 3-way horn loaded Hifi System. Is there any literature how to design the horns? lets say if I would have some nice 3d-drawings of one already existing 3-way horn loaded syst...

Hi Romy…and fellow audio nutters. I’ve bitten the bullet, and shifted from BLH to front-loaded. Yes, I was an idiot, a moron for not doing this sooner. My project is ‘humble’ by Romy’s standard…but I feel it meets the following objectives I h...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Yesterday I was working for a half day at the part of the house were my Altec 19 are sitting and just to keep myself entertained I set up the Altec 19 to play from my add-hog playback: Sony $30 DVD player, Yamaha C2A preamp...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Still, doing whatever crazy and Macondo-dedicated things I will be doing with one stage I will have my full-range Milq as a tested reference trying to get result no worse then the one that I got from a “default” Melquiades ...

Has anyone built the DIY Melquiades amp shown on this site? Looks like an easy DIY project to pop off over a weekend. If I build them (which would be PURELY for fun because they're not going to be able to compete with my sweet sweet Quicksi...

How do I hate DIY? Let me count the ways...Is there some reason you cannot make through-holes to facilitate soldering leads to your copper sheet? Use a hot iron (800 F) and plenty of aggressive flux to pre-tin the holes... Stand parts on short leads...

[quote user="Rewind"] The Fanes are the most detailed midbass speakers I have heard without a horn, but with the paper horn the detail was gone. [/quote]I am sorry you are naive. Fanes are not too detailed midbass speakers. Also, of Faned have lost w...

If you look around the site, there isn't much DIY effort to just build "anything" here.You could probably get exactly what you are looking for by googling "Econowave" or SEOS though.On the other hand, you could just build what you drew and then tell ...

I have no idea what he is and what he is looking for. He declares himself as “just an average guy in an average basement shop building hi-fi audio horn speakers from wood”. I do not even know in what country his leaves, not that it is important...

[quote user="Paul S"]The usual "trick" to "stop inductance" of wire wound resistors is the "old double-wound trick", like those offered by Mills:

Yes, some of the people who "know the most", and can contribute so much indispensable information - up to a point - can be simultaneously so generally confused that it's literally wearying. Imagine gazing into a magic mirror, where everything is so...

N-set, have you tried wall mounting for the TT suppport? This can improve on floor borne solutions in typically framed structures. Perhaps you know the sizes and spans of the floor joists and have it all worked out already. Otherwise, as a generic...

I guess I needed to say that, outright. Of course I do care about seamless power during line lapses, but not much. I mainly see the battery as a "treated", high-current DC reservoir/source for converting to laundered AC. And, like I have said many...

Good points. Romy, you can throw as much money at this problem as you like but you need to face the reality that some of your gear is going to get trashed in a move. If I were you, would make a quick list of the stuff that needs to be moved, noting t...

This is not a safe "project" for the average DIY guy, period. Of course, the copycats are the last to realize this. Dreamers, if you have to ask what a veristat is, do not even consider this.N-set, not everyone has your education and background...

Scott, I do not believe that people come to audio because the love of music. In fact the “love of music” itself is some kind of vaselino-chewee term that I would like do not use. An interest in Music has nothing to do with audio. I’ve been saying thi...

Alex, I have never made anything hi-fi for fun, but only if I thought I could do as well or better than anything suitable that I could find and also afford. I think I've detailed constructions I've used in the Cable thread, which is where this stuff ...
