Here is a VERY interesting paper http://www.anstendig.org/Stereo.htmlSTEREO: A MISUNDERSTANDINGTHE THEORY, SOUND-SYSTEMS, AND PROBLEMS OF HEARINGThere is a common misconception that the addition of stereophonic sound-reproduction was the necessary, c...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] I'm sure there are many bad implementations of the 845 and 211. Almost all of the commercially available ones are pretty mediocre. However I have heard good examples of both so I know it can be done. [/quote]
Actually I d...

Aura made their 1808 driver in 80s and most of the 90s and it was wonderful. It had huge high-temperature neodymium magnet, unique magnet geometry with underhung 4" edgewound aluminum voice coil. It was the only 18-inch...

Well, I have to admit that I did not listen the whole sound of AC vs. DC filaments yet. I will bring home today my DC lab supply that I use for my electromagnet coil and will give the try. I still at this point am not concerned about the “whole ...

Amperidian,
Those “evens” that you experienced I your cars are well known to me - the auto sound is very different subject though and I would not mix in into FM thread... The phenomena of car sound has nothing to do with FM in particular, you might...

I have been thinking recently about the subject of my playback’s sound vs. Live sound and I have to tell you that those thoughts are much more complicated than one might expect. Under normal circumstances it would be foolishness to talk seriously abo...

[quote user="Paul S"] I heard back from Lamms about the relay pulses. They suggested I bias the amps again and then Lamms went silent when that didn't work. But the problem disappeared when I got around to replacing the 12AX7s that came w...

Moreart, believe me or not, but I perfectly understand your constructions – they are nothing more than a simple reflection of your own way of thinking about audio and sound - just a pile of glued wooden panels without any audio based motivation behin...

I see, it looks like they come up with new RIFF64 format that has no 2G limitation. That is good. I never used RIFF64 but I used Sony W64. The W64 was available for a whole with Sound Forge and become available in WaveLab-6. He W64 format was th...

[quote user="drdna"]Experimenting with the new 2A3 tubes has been a very interesting experience. It has given me insight into more specifically exactly what I am looking for in the stereo sounds, which I associate with the Sound.
The most we can as...

[quote user="Paul S"]While you are merely being empirical, there are actually plenty of devices that aim to "benefit" the end sound of SS gain by using tubes to "condition" the signal from DACs, etc. Also, there are plenty of commercial widgets ...

[quote user="Thorsten"]Forgive me for saying so, but since Bishop Berkley and David Hume it should be well clear that there is NOTHING WHATSOEVER that is actually objective, at least as long as we are subject to the limitations of matter and the huma...

Yesterday I visited a local audio guy who bought new speakers and for all intended purposes new amplifiers: I wanted to see what Sound he got. I did not like his Sound I literally did not acknowledge the visit as any audio experience. Very few pe...

[quote user="kodomo"]I heard the same not just from one but from a few guys for my playback as well! I think it is because of the all encompassing effect and the strength of the stereo image. Most people have never heard that strong of a phantom cent...

Recently there was probably nothing as low in audio as the BS surrounded Kharma loudspeakers. Each single step Kharma takes is further and further in-depth Kharma into the realm of bogusness. It is not that I find that “Kharma the Manufacturer” or “K...

Well, when we are talking about Cogent we need clearly differentiate two things: the Cogent’s drivers and the Cogent’s installation. The problem is that since Cogent’s drivers are something so called “compression drivers” then their performance might...

[quote user="cv"] I'm enjoying this account of Melquiades upbringing. I must ask though: how are you sure that what you are hearing isn't on the recording? Not that I don't believe you, I just wonder if the stuff has been there all along and undiscov...

Jim, what is operational point of the 6E5P, what it drivers (how it coupled) and how do you bias the 5E5P? BTW, the clipping at the bottom is very good, very symmetrical. Try to measure which stage clips first: the driver or the output stage. One m...

Floobydust, I do not have a lot of experience with listening the 45 of internal construction. I bought a dozen of so 45, all different brands and I will slowly listen them. However, I do not necessarily looking for better tubes but I rather am lookin...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Funny I thought that that for MiniMe it would not be so critical but as soon I plugged the DEQ-2496 in MiniMe pass I have heard that depersonalized DEQ sound.[/quote]It is funny how some people seem to not hear this at all ...

Floobydust, I very much disagree with you on it, not because I have an alternative view but because I have practical evidences that what you say is not sufficient definition of “good for sound electricity”. The lower THD is not adequate representatio...

el`Ol,it is quite fascinating how well you depicted (listening to WP 8!) what I heard, listening to some 5.xI.E. "some characteristic shining or radiance probably induced by the breakup of carbon-doped paper cones in combination with the anorganic-pa...

Without mentioning the reasons here are a few pointers: 1) There is no proper tone 2) Horizontal imaging is less refined then I would like it to be. 3) Sound is not wet enough. 4) At high volumes room can’t dissipate HF 5) S...

I think that thinking about the audio problems in terms of phase is perhaps logical but counter productive for the reasons you enumerate Paul. It is not the humane thinking... but room *loading* and the DPoLS placement philosophy are... feeling the m...

I wonder if the Super Electricity Days hide another side in themselves. Remind you that the Super Electricity Days in the magnitude of sound quality are way beyond of what any devises including the PP2000 are able to furnish. I might explain the OTHE...
