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...

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...

I really enjoyed reading an ignorant rant by someone who has probably neither heard the Continuum turntable, nor who is willing to say anything substantive about its design, yet he's more than happy to mock me and the people who designed and built th...

Many audio publications grand some kind of idiotic rewards: “Product of Year”, “Editor Choose Award”, the “Best Sound at Show, “The Golden Ears” and so on. Trying to stay in the moronic awards-granting crowd I decided to form my own award: I would ca...

[quote user="Jorge"] I have never found the law of diminishing returns to apply to audio! Going crazy always sounds better… [/quote]

[quote user="vinylithicum"] Here are some of my observations regarding the Wolf von Langa RCA 1428 replica. I long time wondered where mr. von Langa gets his phase correction elements and the diaphragm for his RCA 1428 replica. It's obvious that ...

I got home today, power up the payback and played some bootlegs of Australian festivals that Kostas Metaxas sent me another day. I paid attention that the sound was strange it was too hard atop. That was something new. I put in my player the CDs...

Anyone who has more than a superficial experience with better turntables knows that speed stability is not the subject that civilized people shall even mention. Any turntables shall stabilize speed of disc rotation at the point that it is not au...

Yes, Jonathan,
I have seen this resemblance with JBL in the shape of the back plate but it does not mean anything. The curved back magnetic path make a lot of sense, so he might adopt it from JBL. There is nothing wrong with it.
