Hi Dima,Yep, I really think that I get this one right: I never take the time to do any research about it until your posting came. Luckily, I got the clues in less than 15 minutes. If only other things can be like that...About VR tubes stability, now:...

Jim, returning back to the subject of tube testing….
I do not know if you have seen my most recent obsession; the idea of driving my Macondo with 1.8W of a single 6E5P:

I do not have any disappointment that there was no serious public overview of ML2. I have quite low esteem to audio public generally and to the people who facilitate public overview in particularly. It has nothing to do with cynicism but rather with ...

Say whatever you want but some of the vintage drivers has
it. Not all of them but some of them do and the question how to get it. I
always has been an enthusiast of midbass horn and I am very much the enthusiast
now but there are some topological ...

Ok, let dive a little bit further into my examination of the subject of Lamm ML3
What is important is to undusted that my view less targets the Lamm ML3 but rather it targets the ML3 as a representative of entire class of amplifiers. When I to...

Wojtek, since you have invoked me by name, I will respond directly to associated remarks, while Greg and Romy have answered to other points as well as I might have done.I believe I have mentioned that I have been at hi-fi fairly seriou...

[quote user="rowuk"]Maybe a lot of what Romy or Harlanov hear is determined by what they have conditioned themselves hear in a specific way? Maybe we are all victims of our own "conditioning" and need to address this first? What IS amazing to me is t...

I pitch for many times an idea that most of audio people never experienced any truly great level of high-end audio reproduction that might be a reference for their hi-fi objectives. Experiences from audio installations and live sound are different an...

I never knew that it will be so much fun. As I started the basement cleanup project I did kind of remotely conceptualize that I will try to make a winter pipe smoking place. Instead I discover in my house a new listening room that I have to tell you ...

I got my pair of F120A by-the-book bookshelves a few weeks ago and yes, in the beginning they were very much "compressed" sounding. Things improved a bit over time, but the low treble (which gives instruments their "color") is still recessed. So I ...

This last "venture " of yours is most welcome .A lot of of the people I know and most of the listeners from audio shows are always surprised when small monitors produce big bass and try to
impress with big sound. I never liked this "pushe...

[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 ...

[quote user="Dominic"] i thought of it as soft and chalked it up to not being as strong a motor as was needed and begrudgingly accepted that perhaps 'field coil' did not mean 'powerful motor'. I'm starting to think otherwise…[/quote]

Funny for in my DSET case it is mostly about a primitive equalization in MF. Well, almost.
I god a few other versions of 2A3, one more 604 and a few 45. I in fact like the 45s, even though with my attenuator wide open I have ~2dB less gain the...

Thanks for your comments, Romy.Edgarhorns weren't an obvious choice. Many horns never worked for me. The Avantgardes left me cold. So did the single-driver crowd (I just don't get it....), Altec VOTs, PA systems, etc. But there were some systems ...

Very nice, Keith, thanks. The most interesting would be to access the “Absolute Tone” capacity of the Gamma. Frankly I feel that with TADs it should not be very too advanced as they are at BMS/TOA domain, only with a little TAD syntactic twist. Even ...

I was very sorry to learn that Fane has closed up shop.
Their very client-oriented service was totally out of time, even for England.
About a year ago, expecting a big "NO" for an answer, they actually agreed to fire up the "assembly line" (?) ...

Hi, Touch.
I see what you are trying to do. However, I think that you have reached a point in your craziness when you need to stop using off the shelf accidental horn solutions. I feel you need to recompile your system as a custom installation that ...

How difficult is it to find 437As good enough for a phonostage? For commercial applications is it a dead tube. WE might produce it again when they stated to redo the tubes but the existence of the Russian 6C45P pretty mu...

I think first, it needs clarifying that rich is only planning to use the driver from 50 to 250.. it will surely play, and play well, up into the k's.. I'd be very surprised if it didn't play all the way up to the 4kHz of most phenolics.. as to t...

Serenechaos,
You did not mention one another ugly fact the all recommendations about the “quality” of components have any validity in a relatively short distance. It might be no true if we are taking about vintage element but the contemporary produc...

[quote user="Paul S"] I really would not know where to start with most of the crap out there, since most commercial SS sounds like it makes "music" by inhaling it. But I've heard "acceptable" units from those listed, albeit in some poor environ...

[quote user="serenechaos"]How does it suck? It does not generate second and fourth harmonics? It did change something else in a negative way? There was an unexpected negative effect on Sound, which you don't think can be "fixed?" Sometimes it's good ...

Yes, it is a common deal and it is possible very frequently to get a bunch of the Vitamins Q for very little money. Thanks God that no one from Sprague pay (paid) to market-makers to drool about the Vitamins’s sound and therefore the wide majority of...

CV, Good scenario as well but my leading idea is slightly different. I would like to keep any reactance from the path, would it be inductive of capacitive, to assure ultra fast response time. Basically I would like to maintain the MF amp as it used ...
