I haven't played Du Pre in a while, so I too will be absorbing her genius tomorrow, followed by a donation to the National MS Society. Her performances of Haydn, Boccerini, Schumann, and (of course) Elgar's Cello Concerti inspired me to as...

Romy wrote (in blue)Do you mean to post WAV files that might be indicative to the sound of Ortofone Jubilee.Yes.Farmer when he went into his Australian TT craze spread CDs that according to him demonstrated “good sound from the new TT”.Well, if an ac...

Would it be possible for you to post some samples?
With kindest regards,

I too have no respect for DIY'ers of any type, and audio is certainly the worst place for such people. I don't identify with or socialize among such people, or even audiophiles in general. The only thing that motivates most of t...

So that's the story. I've never really paid any attention to the Magico speakers. I Googled their name and saw the words "Extreme Fidelity." That instantly killed my curiosity and I did not continue searching. Just anothe...

It may be good, though i've worried about SS since Tymphany took over. I have seen many good companies with good products completely screwed by new management. Their re-packageing of Peerless into V-Line (or whatever the hell that was) sp...

MiniMe is growing up...It is a shame that you will not be able to utilize the ringy dustcap that the origional drivers have, but the JBL LE5-2 driver is quite nice and should not bring many surprises.
I found something today that you might find usef...

I'm glad you had the opportunity to look into the G10. I find it to be a very intellectually satisfying material, which (to this sick mind) is important. G10 is a material that reminds a person of cleanliness, stability, perfect cons...

Piano Sonata No. 21 in C major, Op. 53, WaldsteinA very nice performance of the begining of Beethoven's "heroic" phase (1803-1812). Wilhelm Kempff's genius pianissimo (perhaps the best of any pianist I have heard) made the d...

It will not be 1” of wood but a few mm of something very strong- steel, aluminum or architecture plastic

If you have an industrial plastics company close, you might look into a material called G10. Its avai...

Very good. Raal 70-20XR...interesting. Where are you planning to cross these over?I remember the discussion about the internal balloon. That is a very good idea and this may be the perfect opportunity to try it. It will also b...

Okay, here's a graph that shows theoretically what will happen when the volume is doubled and a few other circumstances. It should give you an idea of what's going on. It is important to note that when the Vb is doubled, th...

For the sake of helpfullness, I think that we may separate the differences of the ported speaker designs of myself and Petar. What I have described is the standard, pedistrian model of a vented speaker. Petar's is a hybrid aperiodic-...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]...but I was wondering how the length of the port and the most important the proximity of it to boundary affects sound. [/quote]A general rule is to keep the end of the port at least twice its diameter away from walls....

This may help explain......

That is certainly a new idea. Unless it is really easy to take it out and start over, I would not do it. I just have no idea whether or not it will work without making noise. I have always just used mathematical calculatio...

The least offensive result I have gotten from a ported speaker was closest to the yellow option. I built a pair of small monitors with ports on the top purely because it was the only way they would fit. I cannot reasonably e...

My curiosity peaked with Jessie Dazzle’s last few posts. I realized that, in France, he receives 220v, 50 Hz power. I then recalled Romy’s post at http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?postID=1177#1177. I was wondering i...

In addition to Peter Foster's idea, you might find someone who knows about electron microscopes. I know almost nothing about them but would imagine that power would be critical to their performance. I think Xiaowei Zhuang is the ramrod ar...
