The subject of this head is not the Continuum Turntable but rather the little frighten Moron with sentimental name Michael Fremer. It is important to note that Michael Fremer is not just a Moron own problems but the persons who is with his proactive ...

I presume that whoever read this thread have gone over my comments about the Sound of the former PurePower 1050, particulary my comments about the PurePower’s “Super Texture” at the page #5 of this thread. This controversial “Super Texture” was my ma...

A few days ago I received an email from self-accused big horn connoisseur who completely out of sudden accuse me that my attitude towards to a specific topologies that he happens using his playback prohibit him to join the site and share his "wis...

Roman wants to "test" other amps on the monitors .It is quite impossible on tri-amped Macondo-maybe he will become a rewiever -heheheh. I can assume that Macondo is so absorbing that it is impossible to just play a background music or work and not to...

I do not a lot abound these “digital” amplifiers, never had one but I’m very negatively alarmed with this recent popularity among certain people. I have no background to seriously report about T-amps sound but I might with a full authority to testify...

Go figure, but today I got to enjoy my rebuilt phono cartridge for several hours, once the system got up to cruise temperature. The sound's been better, but not for a L-O-N-G time, and I have no idea what "worked" this time, what might be different ...

Stitch, If you think that you are making some kind of joke then you are mistaken. In most case selling high-end audio to morons is a purely psychopathic game that takes advantage of compulsiveness of audio fools and their desire to be comforted. You...

Oh, might God, Murat, I am so sorry. This is the very first
time when I got mistaken in assessment of internet audio hoodlums. I thought
that you are a Moron but after listening
of your evaluation session that you so kindly uploaded and comme...

And that's an optimistic estimation. I know well for my profession. It's possible that the 10% using their brains don't do audio, so within this activity the ratio would be even worse.I've been an ignorant moron for audio matters many years. But fort...

I have quite a confidence that if you meet and talk with Joseph Goebbels or Lavrenti Beria or with Idi Amin then they all will come along like “nice guys”. When I met and spoke with Valin he seemed “normal” as well. Hey even I appear as “a nice guy” ...

[quote user="Brian Clark"]Yes, that cartridge has NO vertical compliance AT ALL. Keep it away from your precious stereo pressings at all costs![/quote]Oops, you are right!!! What the hell I was expected to see! Sorry for being a Moron! This is funny ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] A few months ago I bought the first pressing of the same album… only sealed (paid $60 - love Horowitz in the end of 40s begin of 50s)... and you know what? Suddenly the entire album could be perfectly tracked with the cont...

Robin, what you say about shifting your head while listening is very interesting in the context of this thread, since I happen to know that one of Haralnov's primary goals is the elimination of the tweeter (or any driver, for that matter) as a "sour...

Thanks Paul...yes, I've already come clean that I'm a moron for getting into BLH's....! (However, at least that got me into horns!)Your other points are valid.I fear I don't have a lot of technical and nuanced answers up to Romy's standards though. I...

I think that we need some standard interfaces on our playback gear to log operating parameters. Temperature, Gm, current, voltage. On loudspeakers maybe temperature/impedance, for digital playback I would like to see jitter, correction, transcoding e...

Romyyour site is very educational for me, and shure for many people who frequent your site.But at the same time, it really nervs to see your snobism, your percepcion that who is notso educated, has so much knowledge like you, is a moron ( h...

Checking if you playback can discriminate absolute polarity is very simple and very effective way to find out if you acoustic system is not fundamentally faulty. Flip the polarity and monitor the result. If you did not experience dramatic changes at ...

Hi Romy,I knew that my asking about the cart used would make you to write the kind of comment you've done.What I've enjoyed most and exclusively of the disc has been the music, all are terrific pieces and some, like the Kodaly, Kalman and S...

I was asked a few days ago what I think about Zandèn new CD player and I replied that I do not think about it.
Truly, those companies produce new models each 18 month to initiate new rounds of cash extraction from clueless, deaf and blind audi...

I'm still puzzling about the thing of the TX-103. I've been talking to a friend who shares this absurd passion and I think is not a moron, and less ignorant than myself. He doesn't know the S&B stepup, but is using some Bertolucci transformers. D...

I am glad to hear you do care what your speaker system looks like, or should I say, will admit you care.MACONDO is about the best looking speaker system I have ever seen. It is the embodiment of van der Rohe's dictum of form following function. It ...

Moron it is then...Anyways, seeing the back chamber of my midbass horn, you would say that its way to big, no? And you would recommend me to proceed with a similar tuning process as you describe in this link?http://audio-db.info/AudioDB/BazaPraktiki/...

Just new to this forum and there is so much to absorb.. One post I read suggested that horns be constructedwith dimensions to suit 1 oct. below the lowest Freq. to be used. I know that Mr. Le Cleache favours this ashe says the group delay is bette...

What I found fascinating in relationship between high-end audio and prices that price high-end is not a subject of “benefit of purpose” but the subject of believing in values. Without cognitive understanding this simple difference the industry stupid...
