This is the last article in the planed overview. Here I would like to cover options available among commercially available High-Efficiency systems. As you might expect it will not be too exiting.
In a ways commercial systems inherent all problems of...

what do you see fundamentally appealing in the symmetry of the differential circuits and what the relations between Sound the symmetry? Not to mention that the perfectly symmetric circuits do not exists. I’m very far form...

Moreart Most people on this site only badmouth things they don't understand. From what i have read the last few years on romy's site, there is a leader and a bunch of follower's that have no clue of audio basic's in sound reproduction. The leader j...

Your comments are quite funny and contrary to the facts. Romy can hear, as I can too, the difference between solid state amplification and tube amplification because his system is properly setup and can resolve all the nuances. The slightest com...

At this point I think that the main advantage of efficient speakers is that they represent the best chance for a sort linearity that to my knowledge can't be gotten any other way. It seems like inefficient drivers simply do not sound the s...

[quote user="Vasyachkin"] i don't see horns as equalization devices. i don't even believe in flat response as a reasonable design goal for a speaker. i believe equalization should be done electronically. to me horns are well, what they actually...

"Meant to be?"
With 100.5 dB efficiency in quarter space I plan to use a dedicated tube amp. Yes, some people use high powered amps to see how loud they can get Def Leppard, but I don't see any reason to. And some tapped horns...

Hi folks. Who ever listened to Living Voice Vox Olympian Speakers might've liked them as much as I do.
They got a great realism in their projection. Some things are obvious, some even claimed.
Its claimed to use excellent drivers, high quality ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of time I am afraid. Let pretend that tomorrow I will build/buy some kind of speaker that would do the perfect ULF channel ...

As the builder behind these horns, I can answer some of your questions. It's true, I was primarily focused on the woodworking/building side, and now I'm experimenting with amplification and crossovers. I can't speak authoritatively on those subjects...

[quote user="Paul S"]Thanks, Scott L. I get the math, and no doubt hearing is believing. Still, I do know for certain that "a driver" can be influenced by a defined amount of trapped air in an enclosure, at least as far as the sound that comes from ...

Obviously I have not carefully read everything you've written about Melquiades, mostly because I have just been stopped in my tracks by the ML2s, so I still have a lot to think about as it is. But if anything could "sell" Melquiades I'd guess i...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Can you post or explain the topology of your 6SN7-2A3?[/quote]The amplifiers I use started from a kit I bought, the Moondog, so here you can see the basic topology. It is very simple. The first stage here can be eliminated,...

I finally added a -15 dB voltage divider to my ML2s last week to fix the noise problem from my L1 preamp - Why did I wait so long?!!The result is absolute dead silence. Nothing. Nada. It is almost impossible to tell if the system is powered on, ev...

hi Romy! Good thought with the current on the damping...
I had another thought. High excusion might create lots of distortion in a compression chamber. No surprise.
But in my oppinion the sizes are often not in proportion. Lets calculate......

[quote user="audiofilofine"] All parts of the tweeter shave been designed and built.All are built in magnetic steel in preferenceto pure iron because pure iron is heated during processing and after processing was not possible to check that the charac...

I keep thinking about the temperature. Whatever the best I heard in Class A was running very very very hot. However, what is the association between sound, heat dissipation design and temperature. It is obviously that any amplifier designers wo...

It’s a bit offtopic, but:[quote user="Paul S"] I haven't seen anything like this in over a decade, and I don't have the patience to wait until I find and acquire something like this, IF it exists. [/quote]The problem is that it does not exist… Simply...

[quote user="Paul S"] With the Wright amps the G2Si did not seem to live up to their efficiency specs using my little cap and coil crossover. I can't offer good descriptions of their sound with the ML2s until I get my TT going, but ...

After thinking about this for a while, I have had a thought that should be relatively easy for anyone motivated to explore and I would be interested to see what others on this forum observe from such experiments.Fundamentally I think the injection ch...

Firstly are your observations regarding the ZH270 relating to comparisons with other push pull designs or SET's?
Secondly could you explain which characteristics of the recording are destroyed, and what mechanism David Berning uses to acheive this...

I have no comments about it besides assuring that the company that state all of it does crap in term of Sound. Still, I find that the way in which they think about construction of the walls of their back-loaded horn worth very much attention. Tak...

I believe that the Arum Cantus is typical of most ribbons in mirroring one of the principal failings of MC cartridges, a rising top end (over 20k), although I have not actually heard this - at all - with my own small Arum Cantus, and I just go n...

This subject of digital crossovers became quite popular during last few years and many audio-people give up and go for a simplicity and painlessness of digital crossovering. There is an army of people out there who would swear by a complete transpare...

In the last 10 years I had some chances to visit owners with very expensive Systems (>500.000,-- $) and all they had the same in common:
Absolutely no idea about real High End or Music reproduction and I mean non, nada, nothing, they went to a d...
