Dear Romy, regarding your efforts to solve variations in mains power supply, there has been an interesting thread on RAT related to the use of toroids as power transformers that morphed into a discussion about the level of DC offset in mains power su...

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...

Ok, Andrew, this is allergy something. I would highly advise you in future before you post any discrete updates, questions, and ideas about what you to inform about the holistic objective of your project, sort of a view from 50.000 feet...

I have a local audio guy coming to my room recently and he hive
me an interesting feedback. He said that my playback sounds like a headphone. I

[quote user="manisandher"] This is very interesting and something that I have not noticed. Because I cannot double the clock frequency going into the Weiss AFI1, I have tended to ignore playing/recording 4fs files. But, I've kept the second AES/E...

[quote user="manisandher"]
The Weiss AFI1 interface is measuring the following clock rates (in KHz) from the Model Two:
- 44.122- 88.244- 176.488
AND
- 48.000- 96.000- 192.000
Does this imply that the 48x clock is more accurate th...

[quote user="Paul S"] So I'm wondering how things are going for the bold explorers who forked over their expectations for a whack at the PP2000. Have the things turned out to be Plug and Play along with All That, or is this yet another case whe...

It was yesterday around 4 PM – I viciously took it off and decided never use it again. I was listening Brahms German Requiem with James Levine and BSO – a phenomenal performances in my view and one moment after being offended by each note the F...

Taking about the external events I more inclined to look at SOHO data and to correlate it with sonic results – probably it is what I need start to do. SOHO is the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory an international project studies the Sun’s sola...

Well, since I made my Absolute Tone pitch I think people got a slightly wrong impression about I am looking for in THIS jornes and I think the readers of my site “get” the idea of “Absolute Tone” too one-dimensional. Let me to peal one layer down fro...

Many people know that I run a side business doing wedding photography. During the 24 years that I have been doing the wedding gigs, and after over 950 jobs that I went through I kind of have seen all imaginable wedding bands. Certainly the “events mu...

This thread is not about PurePower but since there is a LOT
about PP in there I think it would be reasonable to post it here. I got last
night a email with the following information. For sure my congratulation to Canadian,

Since the 2007-2008 alchemic music season and consequentially live FM season was over (the event I marked with my “End of the live Phonostage”) I have been spinning a lot of vinyl lately. So, I spent some time with different phono cables with my diff...

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

I'm open to Classical, I have about 200 or so albums, I do like some pieces very much. I simply prefer jazz, blues, folk and male/female vocal on the main. I don't listen to rock at all, the horns are currently playing Charlie Haden (Jazz) as...

An Audio Amplifier Design Philosophy

Joe,
The “decoration” you described came from the fact that you wrote your message on MS Word that adds ugly formatting when you paste it into native HTML editors. I also write in Word and I uselessly before I unload my posts I paste my Word’s text ...

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...

Although all of it has no relation to digital crossovers but still:

I have to say I totally disagree with you on these numbers. Perhaps for some solid state designs (somehow subjectively solid state watts never seem to have as much grunt as valve ones), driving modern multiple-driver speakers where the crossover ...

Stefano,
I do not have any strong objection regarding to what ALE do. Bent bass horn are more evil then straight horn but considering the small throat of the ALE drivers and their desire to make it to work low the length of the horn become to...
