Hi! I am reading about your problems with integrating the drop with the rest, with a cap. I dont think it is due to the input transformer. As far as I can see from the RAAL measurement, the drop shows an unusual 4 dB/oct. slope from app. 14kHz a...

Having heard specifically the Kharma 3.2 at length in the home of a friend for the life of me I cannot see the fascination. Absolutely the coldest sound I've ever heard. This speaker even with tube amplification I can describe best as like a 200...
