I always had a great gift of prophecy. When I saw W Bush for a first time I did not question what I have seen/herd and declared him as a retarget idiot. Good for us – the stupid Americans - that we allow this dirt to ruin our county for 2 terms. When...

While my Obbligato caps are traveling from Asia and instead of finish my MF amplifier and listening it I am blowing up my steam about the amp at my site there is a subject that I would like to share.

If you think that I am not an idiot then read further. I have been looking at my Macondo calibration

I separated my two of my PP2000 in my rack with 3 feet space and run everything from one PP2000 and both Milq power amps from another PP2000. I also routed the incoming power cords that that are far from each other and far from outcoming power co...

[quote user="Paul S"]Yes, Bud, I agree that the most common problem for the full-tilt regenerators is that they begin to exhibit various problems in direct proportion to current demands. And this seems to be true even when they are used "below capac...

I can’t stress now much I am fallen in love with my new PP2000. I was playing it today all day and can’t not see any single thing that I would bitch. I perhaps is missing too much the sound of proper electricity but my feeling is that the new uni...

I have to admit that I personally care less about powerful full-range SET amplifiers. I do not take their sound seriously, in fact I do not believe they are cable to do “right full-range sound” and what I see then I always imagine them with huge, bar...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still, there is an interesting phenomenon that I never was able to understand. I observe Lamm’s show rooms from I think 1998-1999 to 2006 when I did my last audio show. Surprisingly all Lamm rooms at audio shows sound ...

[quote user="Bill"]Have a hum through my center channel speaker, the SET amp of which sits directly in front of the pp200 about a foot away. It is not relaTED to the DC offset of the 2000 as adjusting that does nothing to the hum, and running th...

Upper range effect is amassing, though not much different then with other regenerators. With PS Audio’s Power Plant the compression at MF-HF is also reduced or eliminated and that ugly heavy dense pressure blanket got lifted. The Power Plant while do...

[quote user="glaesemann"]Roman in a few posts you have made reference to the interesting topic of cable current loading. I'm keenly interested in your findings.[/quote]
Glaesemann, there is not a lot to talk about it. My observation showed that prac...

OK, thanks. I would leave for others to decide what the “higher resolution image” might mean. It might be some kind of untranslatable Japanese folklore. The more vibrant color palette is definably a valid accomplishment, no one knows through if it is...

Paul,
You certainly have an attitude toward the subject and I have no idea why. The subject of this thread, or put in this way - the subject of my interest, is how to deal with electricity problem and how to provide a playback with stable (sou...

I was thinking about the throat of my hypothetic midbass horn. This is complex, controversial and it has pretty much no answer, at least in the formeat I ask it. I will share my thoughts with you. Let pretend that I went for exponential midbass profi...

OK, as now, I see no problem to conclude to the project successfully in 1-2 weeks. The horn give much less problem then was expected, as my progress with crossover going on the midbass horns sound more and more disciplinized. Today I will be expl...

[quote user="Tax"] Your post has had the desired effect and I am doing some more research into Fane Studio 8M, 16 Ohm drivers in a 4 inch throated horn tuned to 115Hz with the intention of crossing it from 70Hz to 500Hz . This may be similar to w...

After posting last night the post above I got a few emails from the people asking me why I am so angry and why I feel that industry people are valuable only in dead form. Those unfortunate audio people with their questions are so dull. I have exp...
