N-set, it is nice to see that you are keep punching the idea, somebody shall, I guess.. About the filters. For the low-pass and in this application I do not use inductors and much prefer RC filter. In LC filters the band-pass flows over coil. If we a...

While I was moving in to my new home John Wight undertook my Bidat for his new update. Up to now I did not have playback properly performing but the last 2-3 weeks I feel that my playback is back. Again, whatever I lien now has only upperbass horn a...

[quote user="David"]I think for a start there are so many different ways of getting a sound that is acceptable to the listener it pays not to be too dogmatic.I am in the early days of developing my system with speakers from 4 different manufacturers ...

I spend my time/effort/money to get a good sound from computer or MacBook.my trial and error proved me that I could not attack CEC TL0-X by Computer Audio.I also lost my money 4500$ in ordering external PSU to Paul Hynes. Paul is not trusted and do n...

Using the AD/DA and employing those Dominus cables I could not believe lived without the tape loop. Plugging Pacific into the loop I in fact save one spare cable and got assurance that I would never will move/plug/unplug my AD anymore. I feel like w...

I am with you on this one. I am also very suspicious of gigantic, 4-chassis phono stages if only because I just wonder why the need for all those damn noisy parts, along with concommitment connections?So it really pisses me off to admit that th...

[quote user="jtavan"] I would be interested to hear your reaction to the same CD ripped properly on a CD-ROM drive rather than recorded from SPDIF stream. If your transport is VERY good, they should be equivalent... but on damaged discs, or with bad ...

I set up both Super Milqs on their new stands and they look very-very cute in comfy in their corners. They also srayhigher and I can reach the plate current regulators without bending my body. Since I become “circumferentially challenged” lately...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] In here is not the value are important but the concept the you block DC not with capacitor but with an “active” resistor that backed up with positive voltage. BTW, eventually if you wish to go “kinky Milq” and have a v...

[quote user="manisandher"]Well let's just say that I find the retailer's version of events difficult to believe. It would be just amazing if something pierced the (quite hefty) packing material and the metal underside of the power supply casing... an...

So, what you would have to do is buy a bunch of #9 AWG solid copper wire from China, so it is only 99% pure,acid etch the surface, paint it with tar and wind it up in a snake sex twist. Or pay them to do it for you.The idea is sound, the application ...

Howdy,Here are two links to videos demonstrating experiments in the speed of electricity.The first shows how a portion of flow is instantaneous and the rest at the speed of light. Measured with a really quick scope and a 1000m loop of wire.https://ww...

Paul S wrote in BlueWhat are you doing to vary the port? I was thinking about a tube that could slide (or thread) in and out, so it could be played with. There are any number of ways to do this with o-rings, etc., as long as the tube...

...to obsess about speaker wire. Thinking about this a little more I realise that my preference for foil cables has always been in relation to speakers with passive crossovers. DSET is much more simple, the amplifier is driving the transducer direc...

I set up one of my TU-X1 to work from own front end and from Schwarz via high quality relay. It very convenient – push a button and the front-end switched. Everything is well shielded, there are no noises and everything is very nice. What however sur...

Unfortuanately, the NJ Symphony "Golden Collection" is up for sale. The orchestra paid so much for the collection, they can not pay off the debt. They are looking for high rollers who can buy the instruments, but permit the orchestr...

Today I was trying to make some experiments. I made some recodings to my reel-to-reel machine from LP. I did not go crazy and ran fairly poor cables just off my preamps. It was BASF 486 at 15ips ½ track. It was not bad, in fact quite good....

Here's my latest hallucination :So I'm sitting there listening and sucking down a beer, when, à propos de rien, it comes to me; more on how to neutralize a suspended floor. After shoring it up with screw jacks (which btw, would make excellent scratch...

Paul, I do not care about dusts. I coved what need to be coved about the rest…. I do not care. The building of midbass - is a final stage of my moving and ….unpacking. So, I did not put any “vulnerable” furniture in the house as I knew that the midba...

I know, I know, you all need from each other are the building plans and building ideas. You all need to know are the list of the drivers, list of horns types, and list of the recommendation how to drive the channels. But I would like to note that wit...

Most of my colleagues are more interested in HOW the recorded music was performed than how it was recorded or played back. When I listen to music, even my cheap iPhone speaker gives me a respresentation of the players "soul".Add that to the pain in t...

OK here is another take of the same section. This time with the Aesthetix Callisto. I set the Tascam's inputs to "bypass" and used the volume controls on the Callisto to attenuate the signal to about the same level as the previous recording...

[quote user="mem916"] OK, I finally have my sample re-recorded in a format matching your file. Details are the same as before. (I set the Tascam inputs to "bypass" and used the Callisto to attenuate the signal. Levels are the same.) The only chan...

Charlus, it is not about an expression of gratitude, trust me, I am very indifferent neither to criticism or appreciation. Ironically what you are trying to do is in a way an organic holding a touch of a few audio ideas that I happened to advocate as...

Who knows why, but I can get away with running tiny, unshielded 6N POCC Cu arm wires straight into my step-up transformer. OTOH, I absolutely have to use shielded cable for the run between my step-up tranny and the K&K. For well-shielded phono ...

Well, thanks for the heads up, I was planning on giving myself a PP2000 for Xmas, now I have to re think this.I used to have a 10Kva Isolation transformer and a DIY sort of Line conditioning system with a bunch of nice 4.7 mfd caps between Positive ...

Romy, Why do you think the improved sonics were related to the residual noise or more precisely the hypothetical delta of noise components from one day to the next? You were very non specific about what was better and to what degree. If you are perc...
