just a couple thoughts: the nicest mini-monit0rs i've ever heard used an unusual mounting technique. http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0807/micropure_kotaro.htm i had difficulty communicating with the maker due to language ba...

I'm sorry, I thought I mentioned that I was responding to the earlier post about HF, up the thread. I guess I misunderstood from other reading that you much preferred your crossovers at line level, while I was proposing it a...

Very interesting! (and impressive construction there KO)I know this isn't quite the subject of the thread, but could you tell a bit more about the 212E amp, in particular, the regulator topology?Regarding 845 vs 211 - Romy, I suspect what you were he...

Since I have no Macondo for 2-3 weeks (completely disassembled in expectation of my new frame – had to be ready two weeks back) I was playing music on that “celebrated” Demon M31. I ma telling you that I’m not use to have this type experience for yea...

The air in my small orange grove is still enough most of the time, and I actually enjoy smoking there - when weather permits and the air is - still. If you don't yet have a garden and/or fruit trees, this is another thing to enjoy, with the adde...

I got my IBM ThinkCentre machine and true felt in love with it. What is wonderful little box. It is very quiet as it as it is fast for what I need to do and it is just perfect size for in-system DAW. I got IceDoc external drive array and they work ve...

Last night an audio guy visited me and he brought to me the CD with this “somebody playing drums somewhere”. He read my site before he went o my placed and he brought to me this recording as demonstration of what it was. I did listen for the first pe...

I just checked the silicone pot, wearing magnifying glasses. The main bath is limpid, as ever. However, some silicone has somehow gotten out of the bath and onto the rim of the tub. Likely it's been there all along, but I just ...

[quote user="op.9"]@Cat: it seems there are still
"morons" out there ;-) your "Mini-me" has dominated the
majority of your precious time so less chance for you to rectify bystander's

Yes, to a large degree it is true. Lately I d...

Jarek,I am a professional musician, and am very much in "tune" with creative processes.A random result is not automatically "bad", but because of its "randomness", there is a lot of ground to cover BEFORE one can even think about further steps. Case ...

"ASR do not use the regular ICs but the ICs that they removed form the demilitarized Russian nuclear missiles console and fallen Chinese satellites" :) ...which means that they use cheap, used ICs. So, the dealer has a better margin & can di...

Hi Romy,
I'm not sure if you're looking for a seperate 'mini system' amplifier, but you might want to look at the handsome little T-amps from www.audiomagus.com
Regards,
Neil...

The first thing that comes to mind is what is the range that the drivers will cover and what is the Fs of the drivers.
Another thing to consider is the loading type on the bass units you have.
I take it that they are sealed ? If so I would not con...

Sure, Mike, however what I learned with my living experience that that is nothing really valuable in life that is expansive. Anyhow, Mike, thanks for the pictures. BTW, some of them are very nice, very-very nice phonographically.
I was particularly...

I hope these friends of mine who clamed that that stupid Denon M31 might play music will read this post. After of a 3 weeks or living with Macondo I found myself having no radio. My portable playback, that does very well, is on my work. I do no...

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...

Dealing more with Sun Audio SV-2A3 kit it amassed me how bad the kit was. The guys made very cheap, in fact I hardly believe that this company has anything to do with Japan – it looks more like K-Mart level of amplifier. I heard a number of very posi...

This weekend a local audio guy came to my palace and was bitching about his bass. I have small 1 cub feet pair sealed foxes with 8” version of my 25W drivers, I think they are 21W. I used them on the side of my bed to allow my old Koshka to climb in ...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"][QUOTE]This makes it inappropriate for evaluating a system or a component from a technical point of view when compared to jazz band or, even better, to a symphonic orchestra which are far richer in diversity, scale or any ot...

Ok, I did try the 4th order filter and it did not sound as I wanted. The 3rd order is right slope foe my room but I need to go for custom filters separately dedicated for right and left channels. The problem is my right channel with the att...

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"] … I am going to revise my "Mini" speakers for a second system (different location) and I have not decided how serious they should be. [/quote] From one point I would like it to be better, not because it need to be but beca...

[quote user="Telus"]I followed this link since I wanted to learn more about the different viewpoints and counterpoints but I couldn't find any of the posts to which you refer. Is this the correct link?[/quote]It was a correct link but the ...

Well, I do not know what it would mean. Regardless his “constitutional status” Row’s article is much more informative and much more educational for people who have interest in the MAXXes then the brainless saliva dropping that many industry cheerlead...

Hi Romy and Company:
My CD player has seen better days so I did some research and though you might be interested in my experience with the "Music server" concept. Punchline: fun, sounds great and is very convenient!
You can create your own aud...

It is a mid of April and the weather is turning to be beautiful. The house of ours is kind of outdoorsy facility and we spent a LOT of time on the deck during worm mouths. We have huge deck that covers all 3 sides of house and we have a very cool dec...

[quote user="Tuga"]Joe, Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy a good pizza. Unfortunately I won't find one in a Pizzahut. "That" man's 2 for 1 pleasure says a lot about his evaluating capabilities... I also enjoy several different kinds of music, mostly...

[quote user="clarkjohnsen"] Thanks for the lecture on material I've been closely acquainted with for thirty years. But please don't try to dodge the issue, viz., that you erroneously said AC plug polarity has "nothing to do with The Wood Effect". The...
|
Well all right then...I've been wondering if the Mini LF sections had been having effects on Macondo's LF channels by introducing some sympatheic resonances. If you left the ports at just the 2" diameter by .5" in length, then the tuning w...
|
KM, I don't know how you come up with the belief that I conclude that "it's a bad performing driver." Either the 138, or the earlier 120... Or that because I didn't use 120s that i haven't heard them. And as ever...
