I have been observing these phenomena for years and I have no explanation for it. Not that I requires any explaining, BTW…
Pretend that you have a stereo installation where right and left channels produce absolutely symmetrical acoustic output. A sl...

James,
forget about music, music and audio are separate entities in they should be treated separately. I have written a lot about it before.
In the realm of pure audio “it” exists as a moment of realization. The entire truth however about the “it” ...

This is my very wet audio dream over the years. I never had a good Chair. My room never allowed me to do so but as I will be moving my wet dream about a perfect listening Chair begin to erect my imagination.
Now I have nice leather couch… I li...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Well, Nicanor, I very much disagree that room acoustic being basically invisible to us. People who deal with sound more or less intelligent always not only pay attention to room acoustic but recognize sound ONLY in context ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]No, you did not do before and you are not doing it still. I think the problem with that you are expressing is that you have no desire to EXPLAIN FOR YOURSELF what you do. Forgot about the amplifiers, speakers and the ...

The good thing of having own dairy-oriented site is that I can look at what I was positing during the year and to have good grip of what was going on over the passed year. Still, although everything is on the surface, I would like to bring up few bri...

I wrote about it many many times but it keep shook me, primary because it very much violates all intellectual provision I can extend against what I am saying. Today FM again flew my socks off and it was not special FM but objectively crappy FM.

Romy,It is indeed an interesting subject; I am instinctively drawn to it due to the fact that the majority of orchestral instruments - the majority of my listening is orchestral/chamber/classical soloists - produce their own sound through the resonan...

There was a big room in there with big Schweikert speakers (with thier grainy and insultingly confident Sound), some king of not particularly good electronics and the entire EMM Labs’ front-end. Many rooms at the show used EMM Labs so-call preamplifi...

[quote user="Morfeas"] Wouldn't comment because using a public forum for free advertisement is not my cup of tea. [/quote]
Morfeas, you of cause might do whatever you wish but I would like to point out that the concept of “free advertisement”...

I except suggestions and critique. I live in Turkey and I am not living in a city, I live at the coast. It is not possible for me to go and experience most of the stuff first hand. There is no one really interested in horns or have multi-way horn sys...

I was slowly looking for a compression driver that would go in my Fundamental Chanel down to 200Hz. The YL Acoustic 550N attracted my attention. Then I realized that it is the narrow throat type of the drivers, aka WE555, not exactly that I would...

It is absolutely amassing how many audio people misunderstand Audio Neutrality. The Audio Neutrality is one of the most import moments of audio reproduction and still it is misunderstood. Not good!
The very first step to begin understanding of real ...

Well that was my father. We founded the company together - he invests, I researches, mostly. Bruce Edgar and Sam Saye taught me how to design, and we built our first prototype system in California.Think I need a bit more clarification on the five tim...

Stressing Bass in my former post I would like do not overly accent the lower bass itself but rather an organic combination of bass with something that I would call “full body” sound.
It we look at many properly setups, loaded and amplified cartridge...

With regards to the links, as it happens, I totally agree that 15in Tannoy Reds struggle to handle complex music. The crossover is too simplistic and the cones too hard to control with a low power amp. Reds can be lovely in a simple vintage system bu...

ArmAlex the fun thing is that you read Romy posts here without understanding his ideas and copy paste Romy instructions in your Audio system and the result is lower than those audiogon guys (an example of your audio logic -> you buy gryphon spea...

Me being exuberant about the new ULF capacity does not necessarily mean that ULF contribution is right and proper, let me to explain. There is a musical event that has it sonic representation. This sonic representation better or worst was captured by...

[quote user="manisandher"]For a living, I teach presentation skills to executives and senior managers ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJetXp2r3pc ) . I always begin by considering the listeners and what they are looking for. I'll ask people what turns ...

Well, leaving aside my "grinding axes", namely my habitual love to remind people and myself that there are plenty Morons in audio I do think that Berkeley's parley to Reference DAC is interesting. It is interesting not by the DAC as a unit but rather...

it seems even Thorsten do not believe computer source could be perfect and he just guide us to reach max from computer."
The computer is a great music server but also a source of jitter ...

[quote user="Amir"]these are my findings about computer audio after some trial error:1. computer audio is very very hardware/OS/software dependent. computer structure is multi task (time sharing) and using it as a real time single task processor is n...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Also do not forget that the phonostage that you built has very lash and very polite sound. [/quote]I would like to stress the politeness and lushness of 834PT-AIR phonocorrector. This characteristic of this phonostage s...

I am kind of semi-evaluating a power amplifier now and think about the following: there is a correct relation between harmonic content of amplifier and it’s dynamic aptitude.
I have heard many amplifiers that run across the dynamic range with a tre...

Rakesh,
Yes, life is too short but the definition of belter ULF channel is not something that one might learn during "a project next coming weekend". The most important in audio is a state of realization and obtaining this state is a matter of...
