Romy,I'm not sure how "transparent" you find the Lavry etc AD/DAs, but since you have them, it might not be difficult to throw in an adjustable digital delay; eg these chips from TI http://focus.ti.com/paramsearch/docs/parametricsearch.tsp?family=ana...

After exploring the options for Multiplexing decoding on digital domain I decided to downgrade this perspective for now. Here are some cone and prose of Digital Multiplexing as I can see them
Pros:
Ability to have better noise performance. This i...

Is it possible to change phase response in analog domain very easily?I think it's not easy and if it's possible it need complex circuit...

Hi all.We are small company, dedicated to creation of highest quality audio products. Analog and Digital. We have auditioned many music servers on the market.However most of them do not sound as good as good quality 16Bits cd transport. The approach ...

N-set, for one thing, a certain amount of "flutter" is a normal part of analog recording processes, if indeed the test tracks are "analog" from end to end. I have no clear notion of what any (subsequent?) digital processing itself "looks like", but...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The main worsening of Sound by digital technology does not come from limitation of formats but from a corruption of recording culture. In past the tape or a disk was tangible analog evidence all manipulation that took place...

I spend a couple days playing with my digital, listening, measuring, trying to realize how to use it, trying to take advantage (if it exists) of my new Pacific processor. It is a true remarkable machine but the Pacific processor also highlighted to m...

from both digital and analog tape formats, but as time goes by it may be easier to get good digital source material.So far the best recorded sound I have heard was (years ago) via Mark Levinson's (justly celebrated, IMO) Studer/Revox rigs; however,&n...

A few days ago I was expressing my dissatisfaction with the BS-mania that industry spread about the digital masters.

[quote user="steverino"]Romy, I thought it was you or maybe I read it elsewhere. SACD was originally a multibit high sample rate format. I believe Sony went to one bit for "security" reasons to prevent copying. I think it's hard to rule out digital ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, interesting. The problem might be in ADC, I/O cared, Recorder or DAC. When you do the experiment do you record the file? If so then you might plug ADC directly into DAC. Might your problem be with cloaking? I do know wh...

Nope, sorry, it does not make any sense for me. The use of Rowland amp I guess is fine if it being use for testing of the filters. Still if you use high-pass for your midrange horn then what resistor does in your RC filter? A first order filter, rega...

I fully disclosed to the new owner what issues I had only with analog, which he also uses. Well he received it late last week and he also has the buzzing sound with analog! The is confident he can solve the issue and I wish him all the luck but now t...

Hi Romy and everyone!. it´s me again! Here with another contribution.Are you familiar with a guy called Jean Nantais? He rebuilds Idler Lenco Turntables and bolt them to high mass plinths. (basically completely removing all issues regarding idler whe...

You are right, the DAC18 is 16 bits device, we could not find many sources of 24 Bits material being output in digital form via SPDIF or USB.Due to the Digital Copyright Law, no devices can output (in digital form) anything higher than 16 Bits / 48 K...

hi romy,i like fm. and i like comparing different tunas. in the past ten years, i have bought and sold at least a hundred different tunas. i presently have more than thirty. easily 90% of my music listening is fm, even in the ...

I was told that they were thinking to stop analog FM stations and have them broadcasting in digital DAB, but I found the official webpage of the government about it. It's sure that they will stop (in Spain, don't know other countries) aerial analog T...

I think that picking a DAC is like picking speakers - regardless of the price, we don't know what we have until we get there. I do not think that it is possible to compare digital and analog playback forms. With a turntable we have as many choices (g...

[quote user="drdna"] The VERY INTERESTING idea is that the introduction of noise as a dithering element for the analog signal (for our brain to decode) can be helpful in increasing the retrieval of information vital to conveying the Sound. [/quote] T...

use the Beringher for bass under 100 hz, driven by the main amp. We tried a lot of different
solutions, including analog active xovers, the DCX is clearly better than the

Well, the added benefits of cross-source validation is that some of the sources are stable but others are less stable and might vary in its basic quality with time. For instance digital is very stable and since you once set it up properly then it rem...

[quote user="steverino"]FM is Analog Signal Processing vs DSP. The compression aspect is only really intrusive on orchestral works. Pop and jazz are already compressed and chamber music presents a more limited dynamic range if not limited contrast. B...
