[quote user="steverino"]FWIW I got my own PP 1050 a week ago and am pleased with the sound. It is the first active device that sounds as good as or better than my jury rigged passive filtration. Thanks Romy. As for chaining devices, I tried plugging ...

[quote user="serenechaos"]I don't know where this goes, so I'm just starting it as a new thread; please move (or even edit or delete) as appropriate. After reading too many wondourus reviews of ceramic driver speakers in general, and only havin...

In the world or audio you
learn new and interesting facts every day.
AC caps (ceramic, electrolytic, polyester and polypropylene metallized foil types) can buzz at various frequencies.
This is not nonsense, and is quite normal behav...

[quote user="drdna"] What was more concerning is today some 60 Hz hum also re-emerged in the system, sounding like a vibrating cell phone going off in the back of the room. It was interesting how it was sort of localizable, but the hum is annoying. A...

I think it is a simple case of different strokes for different folks.
Drdna writes about communicating the essence of sound - I write about the essence of music. He writes about wondering what Coltrane was thinking. I write about hearing him looki...

Paul,
I re-mapped your post to your older thread; I hope you do not mind…
Anyhow, I find absolutely nothing in the older ML2’ sound related to L1/L2 “X-Factor”. As I suggested in the second post of the flowing thread:

Here is another question that almost from the DIY-Audio universe. Dima is finishing Zaratustra II amplifiers. It will be quite interesting beast and I’m slowing begin to think about the power supplies – it will be my responsibility. The Zaratust...

Well, when we are talking about Cogent we need clearly differentiate two things: the Cogent’s drivers and the Cogent’s installation. The problem is that since Cogent’s drivers are something so called “compression drivers” then their performance might...

In reference to the two (or three) prototypes, the base design contains one (1) driver, a second proposal to the base design uses two (2) drivers (using almost the same exact enclosure--an increase of volume/area in the chamber containing the two [2]...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I don't have a problem with what Lamm has done in offering the ML3 (ignoring the price)... If I have a problem it is more related to how the product is being represented. Representations aside, depending on how it sounds,...

Romy, i hope this post doesn't offend your sensibilities. I am not gonna say a word about the physics principles that have led me to the conclusion that this is something that should be tried ( unless you ask of course ).

I made experiments running HF filaments from dedicated Hammond 6.3V transformer vs. lifting ground on my 6.3V IDH filaments. I did not listen Sound but rather measure the noise – the result was identical. In the best cases I was able to get 0.63m...

I ran across this Negative stiffness isolation platform (the anti Viagra??) independently but I should have known the Cat had pounced years earlier. It is hard to tell how much the concept has advanced since 2007 as I only found one firm doing it (Mi...
