Yep, another TT but what does it mean “Analog is Back” and “new hope for the discriminated analog Audiophile”? This language is a crap that industry and armature cheerleaders develop to pump themselves and others up. However, in my view this lang...

[quote user="rowuk"]Amir,you have now posted twice that "proper" USB is better than SPDIF. The problem is that it isn't, unless someone makes up rules to define their own sense of better. The problem here is that they have not defined anything that i...

After dealing with my tuner pick digital noise from my AD and DA, and particularly from Lavry DAC, I loaded Lavry with quite substantial amount of ferrite anti-RF filters:

It includes the a...

in my idea philosophy of converting analog to digital is like philosophy of modern art like cubism. dividing structure to it's elements and working on elements then constructing new structure from new elements.I think digital for it's wrong approach ...

Sine I read about the new Orion phonostage I was thinking about the whole story behind it. The whole Constellation Audio as the company that started 2-3 years back strike me as some kind of combined efforts of a group of dealer and distributors...

The worsening quietly of Metropolitan broadcasts is not a secret to anyone but did anyone notice that those hoodlums this session become even more obnoxious. Now the MET FM broadcasts are not live anymore but they are A/Ded, then come to some kind of...

Hi Romy,Thank's for the information.I will look into this in the very near future.Yes, i am finding as i get older(mature?) i am liking some/most classical much more.I was able to find some more on the tuners specs on this pagehttp://www.fmtunerinfo....

Jessie, that about sums up my basic impression of digital sound in general for many years, until very recently. Just add thin, disjointed and arbitrary "harmonics" and noise that makes your skin crawl, and so far the more elaborate the sys...

Actually I have no interest to compare Tape vs CD vs Vinyl, I enjoy listening to music even when I listen to MP3 in my Car. what is interesting to me is Tape machines are beautiful equipments and I enjoy looking at tape machines in my room.Analog sou...

I have found the problem and was able to resolve the noise quandary.
The Lavry ADC has balance analog input and the Sansui has single-ended output. I use my PAD’s Dominus cable with an RCA to XLR adapter. The adaptor was made by BAT and I used it f...

That's a fine looking analog rig you got there. Glad to see you switched to tape instead of other belts. My friends at Galibier and Redpoint are really into it. They say the taller the tape, the better. I believe they are usin...

Like I said before, my favorite analog threads are the Technics threads; but 103 threads run a close second.These folks are downright fervent!Mention the 103 in the same breath with a Technics TT and watch the counter roll blurred until it blows smok...

Hello Romy,I thought we were just discussing technical issues around tonearm bearings with a focus on the peciuliarities of the bearing used in my arms. I have no intention to sell you anything. As stated in my first posting, I do not want to convert...

Stitch, you expressed a very valid point of view. We are at severe devaluation of reference points and nowadays any Moron with a rudimental knowledge of HTML and a few vocal cronies can become a “reputed manufacturer”. A few months ago a guy I know b...

In fact, digital recording allows the industry to process easily every musical material (a very powerful exchange-tool). Unfortunately, digital recordings are also highly corruptible in the musical-expresive potential as you point...

The size, I can understand.But can't you simply take the tape out from your Placette and plug it into the Pacific's analog inputs? I'm assuming that the Placette has, in addition to its variable output, a fixed output...Surely this would help wit...

Very interesting read. I like comfy!Now for ultimate comfiness: would you recommend an actual unit for prototyping?...A digital crossover that works OK, with >=2 analog unbalanced inputs and outputs, 2*3 channels output, possible 6db slopes a...

Hi Paul,SPL out of Germany seems to have some interesting blending functions on their headphone amplifier. Not sure if they have other products that better suit your needs and didn't look to see if they are doing the processing in the digital or anal...

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. But on the evidence most ...

I usually do not do the Audiogon posting. There are too many idiots in there and they are under too much protection of the douchebags that run that site. Not to mention that I well remember WHY I was “banned” from Audiogon to begin with:

Hi Romy, I haven't been listening to much analog past few years, so,thout I would adjust my 901 and get back to basics. I really like this cartridge and forgot how great the bass can be. It is lovely on pianoforte, simple schubert songs...

if there is only one output on the source, it should feed the main speaker preamp or Dac. The preamp or dac digital or analog output would the feed the pre-pro or receiver with auro 3d capability which would then feed the ambiance channels.If the sou...

Paul I think the minimum requirement for good sound is not complex nor expensive.when minimum requirement is considered then I do not care about debates like paper vs metal, set vs pushpull , solidstate vs tubes , digital vs analog or horn vs dynamic...

A reader of my site sent me interesting information. It looks like Accuphase came up with a new model: T1100.

[quote user="gordan"]Najda volume
control is analogue in each channel. The rest I don't know, especially I don't
know how DSP is implemented and if individual time delays are possible. But if
you are able to physically time align your setup, I thi...
