[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Ok, let dive a little bit further into my examination of the subject of Lamm ML3
What is important is to undusted that my view less targets the Lamm ML3 but rather it targets the ML3 as a representative of entire cla...

I should have said UP or Down in the listening chair. Toward and away from the speakers will also do it, unless you're sitting midway between tweeter and mid of course, but not to the extent of up/down will.I just did an experiment with some fishing ...

[quote user="Paul S"] I really would not know where to start with most of the crap out there, since most commercial SS sounds like it makes "music" by inhaling it. But I've heard "acceptable" units from those listed, albeit in some poor environ...

[quote user="serenechaos"]I don't know where this goes, so I'm just starting it as a new thread; please move (or even edit or delete) as appropriate. After reading too many wondourus reviews of ceramic driver speakers in general, and only havin...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]If you are still in MF frustrations then I have something that you might find interesting. Recently I pick up in UK a pair of Vitavox S3 drivers. I figure that if you wish I might let you to play with before they die in my...

[quote user="drdna"] The first key would be
that the digital reproduction be of a high enough sample rate to fall
below the threshold of perception. The scond would be, in my mind, that
the process of reproduction not create a new structure, but r...

[quote user="Paul S"]Adrian, I wonder how you wound up with the never-mentioned FET 10? I prefer it to the EAR 834 I heard. Is this another case where it's full of old caps? I would not be at all surprised if futzing with those caps might yield as ...

I think my complaining against HF might be understood as my position in opposition to HF in generals. There is nothing could be further from truth. I am a strong supporter of excessive bandwidth of electronics and acoustic systems. I do not min i...

The PP2000, eventually(!!!!), demonstrated something that I was looking for long time. Years after year I read and listen comments of different audio people when they describe benefits of different power treatment devises and year after year th...

I am looking back and my last 2 month frustrations with presentation width, with vertical midbass horns integrations, with relatively aggressive sound bite, with somehow overly labored lateral imaging propagation prom Macondo and am realizing th...

I have written about it multiple times but the site has become so big that it is getting hard to find anything that took place in past.
Anyone knows that amplifier and particularly tube amplifier need some times after they get turn on to soun...

All Acoustic System or let say playbacks has signature or some kind of own character of sound. That is normal we all accept it and live with it. It is important to differentiate a character of playback from major mistakes of playback, but it is a...

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...

1) If you decided to use the 12” JBL 2206H driver then I doubt that you might talk about 4” throat. A 12” driver with wide outer suspension might go with 7”-8” throat. The 6” might do, though it might be a stretch....

First of all this post is NOT related to the recent PP2000 problems but it has a border, general view.
The recent LX’s posts made me to think about the PP2000 buttery. He reports that his buttery got way weaken from 2009. I used my older PP200...

I have to admit that my first unsuccessful experiment with APS PurePower regenerator made me anxious like hell. In context of the none-loaded unit I’ve heard some results that I was searching for a long time. The APS claim that they have “fixed” it a...

[quote user="Jorge"] You can become that which you most hate: a Reviewer![/quote]Actually to review audio products is not something that I would hate but it I has to be only on my terms – the condition that certainly does not exist and would not...

Gargoyle, I do not know the answer.
I have two friends who make paper MF horns and they claim that they are fine. I
did not heard their system but even if I did then there a very high change that
I would not be able to say anything defiantly. To s...

[quote user="miab"]Yes the Bidat does lock 48khz very well and so does the Idat-m. Something even more suprising and coming from someone that knows these dacs very well is that on a few samples of Bidat they even lock at 96khz! Alas I am not so l...

Hello Romy,
While discussing SACD’s and DVD-A’s aledged superiority in a webforum a recording engineer posted his description of real world 24 bit recording.
I don’t really feel like translating the whole thing but I’ll try to sumarize it in numb...

[quote user="be"]Both the Fane and the Goto where used as compression drivers, so there where no principal differences of use. [/quote]
Wow, who made such experiment? Bring this person to my forum, it would be interesting to interview him! I still d...
|
All that I will be saying are the subject of my own experience with horns and my personal observations. You shouldn’t agree and most likely you will not. That is fine with me. I have lot of reasons behind what I will be saying and opened for some cla...

[quote user="Paul S"]For me, the gratuitous mention of "name" yachts in the early part of the blurb is such an obvious Pimp Job that I literally could not get past it on my first try. And I have to disagree about the "design', and the "execution...

A few months John Hasquin sent me a picture of someone’s horns suggesting … actually he did not suggested anything but after I saw the picture I was laughing hard and quite long. I found that those horns were very symptomatic to the most horns ...

Audio people know how “live” music sounds and what impact it has to listener. Well not all of them know, and a large number of them never visited concert halls and are familiar with music only by the chest pressure that they experienced at pop-clubs ...

[quote user="Gregm"] No-one is criticising the ML3 (amplification) product. We are discussing the concept and the applicability of such products, i.e. the ultimate limitation of an amplifier called upon to work from DC to daylight and, accordingly, d...

OK, the amp is running for the 6C41C for a few days and it looks like the tube should be burned-in sufficiently enough for now. Still I have to note that the sound of 6C41C was not changed since my initial listening of this tube.
Originally I drove ...

After a month of listening exclusively Melquiades and decided yestoday re-switch everything and to play Lamm’s ML2.
I was quite shocked with the result and I did not anticipate the ML2 could be so way off. I will not elaborate about the a...
