A horn is a very simple dev...

Since I started this thread I have received a number of emails from people bitching that I do not like this, criticize that and that they can’t figure out what I do like. I reply to them invariably – “Do not read my site as you are too much a Mor...

Mike at AudioFederation.com posted in his blog something that I feel should be expended upon.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I have to admit that since the torch of sane sounding horn-loaded loudspeakers nowadays in my hands (among the outspoken people with web presences) I feel sort of an obligation to comment about new interesting species ...

OK. After a few days of self-education and harassment of various technical people I got what I need – the truth and the reasons why both of my Sansuis TU-X1 sounded so honorable from 75R FM input and so much better from FA-7 input. Below I will...

Somebody from AA was asking about electromagnet. The subject pup up here from time to time but this time Bruce Edgar uploaded an interesting comment. Bruce is not a typical AA Moron and if he says “inaccurate things” then it is not due to ignoran...

[quote user="rowuk"]Amir,In live music, we have intermodulation. Two trumpets or a trumpet and oboe playing together create sum and difference tones that change depending on pitch interval for instance. For music in major keys, this intermodulati...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"]I thought I was quite clear about my evaluation program: Put it on. Play some music. Does it present a compelling emotional experience of musical enjoyment for me? If yes...GOOD! If no, maybe somebody else will like it. This...

I do not care about the Bruno Walter’s or the Mahler’s himself comments. I care about myself and in the way how I want it to play not one plays, and I am disappointed.
I am not a huge fun of Mahler First Symphony; in fact I am not a huge fun ...

[quote user="alex"]Sorry Romy,We are
talking about pivoted tonearm with overhang. That is the geometry that
creates force to pull the cartridge toward the centre of the record. If
you take a moment to observe how anti-scate weight is at...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]When Srajan Ebaen was a little boy he loved to help in his uncle’s in French restaurant. They lived in a small German village, filled with many pragmatic eateries that served large meals with sausages and potato. The u...

This weekend I was told that there is a new power conditioner out there: Dmitri from Running Springs Audio. I never heard the company and have no idea that they are, what they do and what the stand for.
A quick search lead me to number of posi...

This thread is a derivation of the thread: Wilsons, EMM, Ozawa, Saint-Saens and...[quote user="clarkjohnsen"]While in general I agree with Romy about Wilsons, I have once or twice heard them sound really, really good. On the other hand I have also he...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It is not a the thread about Allnic but LCR RIAA correctors, still there was something expressed in here about the Allnic LCR phonocorrector… and I feel bad about it. It is not that I don’t think that Allnic LCR phono...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] OK, I agree – it might be not necessary as PP2000 does produce fine electricity in a convenient package. Furthermore it violates the rule that I try to follow in audio generally: define snick objective and ONLY then re...

Some folks from Australian audio site nominated my Macondo as the ugliest loudspeaker. I would disagree but my objective in this thread is not arguing about tastes but to talk a bit about reference points of judgments. It is irrelevant to me per...

[quote user="drdna"] I know all the compromises involved with the EdgarHorns, I have heard them when I visited Bruce Edgar in Gardena, and they were pretty good compared to most of what is out there. I realized that I would likely never be able...

Doug, it is a lot of tuner went over your hand. I wonder what drove you to do so. Was any specific quality of sound that you were looking and the tuner that you own did not serve you?

Well, the Magazines are more or less an advertising tool for the Manufactures and their Importers. They don‘t write for the customers, they write for the other Party.

What happens when we say "Yeah man, that's what I said, the sound of your system sucks"?
What makes people so sensitive to criticism of their decisions regarding audio?
What makes audio different than other realms open to criticism?

It is not a secret that my short interaction with Murat and
my observation the progress he has with his playback made me to feel that his
is an idiot. There is nothing new in it, most of accidental audio people are
idiots. Nevertheless, I think it...
