No, I do not use external clock as I have only one digital devise
in case of recording. When I record I use Pacific or Lavry internal clock as
master and I always slave Lynx to my A/D. I use to run it independent and it
was fine but then last ye...

Form email I got from John Wright
“PS, In case you care, the Bidat gets better all the time with fresh updates ….I mean it will sound broken in comparison. I have made some very good changes to the power supply and the output stage that ...

[quote user="Paul S"] I wonder how many cities have good FM programming and broadcasting? Los Angeles was great, back when I lived in Venice, with interesting stuff going on around the clock. San Diego is quite limited, and I get Bupkis f...

I see, I did not understood what you said as I was under impression that ANY I/O clocks must be conventionally 75Ohm terminated. Sure, Lynx id 75R terminated. The page 24 …

Well, I do not think that I would be able to recode it to CD witch appropriate level of quality but it would be interesting to be able to load it to hard drive and to see if FM level sound still might survive on HD. Also I would be able to writhe a f...

Below is the very same fragment from the very same LP (also not original but re-issue). The file is 88/24, FLAC compression.

Ok, looking at the flawless performance of my PP2000 I decided to get the PP3000, which was ordered today:

As I turn my entire playback on (phonostage and Pacific) I suck 96% from PP200...

It looks like you're looking at the right brands for ADC. It seems
likely to me that getting proper A/D conversion is as hard as or harder
than getting proper D/A conversion. I'm currently shopping for a good
A/D converter for a number of purposes...

I was sitting quietly and without bother anybody, listening my new discovered and wonderfully-different played Tosca by MTT and Hungarian State Symphony and suddenly I realized that it was Thursday evening and WCRB shall be broadcasting live from...

[quote user="scooter"]* Regarding playback, I misspoke in my original post of an "Audiophile music server." Upon further reflection, this is an oxymoron, if not a moronic phrase. I think it is highly unlikely that a dedicated audiophile CD player w...

As I said: most debates on the subject that I ever heard so far are not accurate representation of Analog vs. Digital dilemma. The same as the discussion in this thread about the “natural continuous process”, the “discrete process” and the “brain re...

I wrote about it many many times but it keep shook me, primary because it very much violates all intellectual provision I can extend against what I am saying. Today FM again flew my socks off and it was not special FM but objectively crappy FM.

[quote user="drdna"] Honestly for now, the character of the tuner is unobtrusive enough that I notice mostly the problems I have with the preamplifier and the electricity. However, I would be interested about what you had thought at this point to be ...

[quote user="manisandher"] Yes, please try this - I would be very interested in your experience. (Does your Lynx have built-in 75 Ohm termination?) . [/quote]
Yes, Lynx has 75R clocks in and out.

I've just received a really interesting email from Mark Donahu, Chief Mastering Engineer at Soundmirror. I really appreciate his taking time to reply to my query - they're obviously a decent bunch of guys there...PS. Sorry if this post is full of sm...

Wow, it is worth to live in Boston and have a day of miserable rain.
I really like what I was getting with CD and I have a few very interesting results coming that should be even more exiting, at least one of them is more defiantly is very exciting ...

There was a Reference Recordings company that did some nice
sound and sometimes, unfortunately much less frequently, some good music. The premises
behind the Reference Recordings that they were pure PCM recording, uselessly
done in 4x with Pacific...

[quote user="manisandher"] What I'm having more difficulty with is playing 176.4/192KHz sample rate files with the Model Two in Master mode. The Model Two can only output a clock at 1x or 2x 44.1KHz or 48KHz. My AFI1 cannot double the clock frequ...

I spent a bigger part of day today to finish the “End of Life" Phonostage, there were many things to do but it is now over. Done! Complete! Amen! I it closed up and sat in it’s permanent place.
A few observations looking back. First, I spent a LOT...

I have to admit that I was experimenting last night with Pacific’s Low Level Extension and it was not bad at all. It would not be my last words as I would need the whole system up and running to see what is going on – the region where the Low Level E...

I never hit such a huge jackpot as I just did with the Lavry DA-924. The most funny in that even that I did it absolutely blindly. I had some minor beef with DA-924 sound: upperbass/lower midrange and the slightly too much extended HF (very very clea...

[quote user="el`Ol"] ….I can´t say much about the dCS upsampler, because I only heard it in combination with a Lamm/Wilson combination that in my ears showed some surrealistic saccharine sweetness I found quite annoying. You mentioned some time that ...

Dear Romy,K-Stereo receives a digital data feed, performs a bit-rate conversion in preparation for internal processing, then as a last step optionally performs dither for the reduced word length digital output. The machine contains an internal ...

[quote user="peter foster"] I would probably start testing using TU-X1 FM OUTPUT (FIXED) as a first option. [/quote]
If you have the FIXED output then it is all “tweaking” that you need to do. Bothe of my TU-X1 were export version and both outputs w...

If you read my site or talk to me then you know that I am very much not a proponent to dummy idea of balancing specific problems of playback system by using specific complimentary cables. I always tend to use individually neutral components with ...

OK, it now looks like my dive in the world of PC is over and I pretty much know where I am staying. A well of so ago I was completely ignorant about the subject but now I could at least to understand what the common buzz-worlds means and able to ask ...

The news just come inhttp://www.amr-audio.co.uk/html/pr_ph77.htmlThorsten use to tell me that his ambitions phonostage project will be coming through in fall of 2008. Well, it is late but it is there: the AMR announced their new PH-77 Phono Equal...
