I am revising the architecture of my playback in context of benefits
of reverberation fields injection. Certainly, Macondo and Melquiades stay as
they are. I always had a pilot system that runs in parallel with Macondo driven
by a cold SS amp. I u...

[quote user="anthony"]I plan to
build a fullrange Melquiades for a friend and then if that works out the DSET 6
or 7 channel version for myself. [/quote]
That is very good approach in my view. The
problem is in this approach that you have t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]However,
if I did it again then I would not do it in context of multi-channel amplifier
but rather I would make a maket amplifier able would test my ideas with it. [/quote]While I do like the idea of experimenting with MF...

[quote user="KOTriode"] Without regulation, this amp would not work correctly due to its design: DC coupled and fixed bias. The high transconductance will make the bias current varied as much as 50-100ma due power line fluctuation without the reg...

Mani,
I would leave the subject of DSET/horn setup for another thread and would drop a few words about Zu Druids. They are not the speakers that I would ordinary comment but since I have a local guy with Zu Druids and I had a chance to hear th...

This weekend I made an interesting experiment. I had a visitor yesterday. The gay is not what I call overly critical and overly demanding listener but he is not a typical Audio Moron and has from my point of view a proper and sane react...

[quote user="Chirag"] Well..my first question would be regarding the application. The big Melq tube is already doing the bass towers...is it not enough current? [/quote]
Chirag, I’m not planning to use this power amp in my system. ...

[quote user="darkmoebius"] That's because "off the shelf" amps can be easily resold for little or no loss of money if they are not to the buyer's liking. The Melquiades, on the other hand, leaves the builder with $3,000 worth of parts not easily reso...

First of all: I have moved this thread into the Milq Forum…..
[quote user="RonyWeissman"] I'm going to try and build a Melquiades type amplifier (with some help from friends) following the advice given above to make it as simple as possible.&n...

Reading at my site Paul’s narrative about his fight with ML2’s tube and the ML2’s tube sockets I need to confess that I always was suspecting that he is some kind of odd wacko with bizarre and sick approach to the subject of amplifier tubing. Too muc...

I kind of feel that I am way off in my familiarity about what is going on with new audio products. My horizon is very restricted with my own needs and with my own interests. I am irregularly read audio publications and irregularly visit some audio si...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] One of the things that solicited me to try the APS unit was the assurance of the APS guy (Richard) that what I run ASP unit from internal battery + regeneration vs. the plugged in wall + regeneration ….I should hear no dif...

After many hours and much efforts I have connected the new 6-channels Super Milq to my 6-channels Macondo, with omission of tweeters for now. I made some measurements and initial adjustments and then was trying to listen it briefly. I did not l...

Something had changed very positively with multi-amping. I am not quite sure if it is because the full multi-amping of the specific of the implementation but it is what it is. The entire dynamic relationship between volume of a given tone and the ton...

It was an audio eventful year and I have experimented and discovered many fascinating things. Here is a brief summary of the 2007 audio-events and a short look what my audio happening will might take please in 2008.

[quote user="drdna"] 1. This particular EdgarHorn is being sold to make way for a Cain & Cain speaker which is based initially on a single-driver type backloaded horn. To me this suggested that the seller was seeking the benefit...

Ok, I do not know what it was: was it DHT, was it 300B, was it some other specifics of this given amp or whatever… but those two aspects that I named: intentional density of colors and randomness of pace are something that I would like to exercise in...

A few months ago a reader of my site contacted me and informed about that he found a very interesting driver, that his is using and he is very excited about it. The driver is JBL 2490.

Thank you for answers .
Yes you are right there is nothing about test jacks (I do hope its the right name ) in the schematics.
Sorry for not being clear.

Strangely, no one but its architect has written here about the sound of the full range Melquiades, and so I thought I would say something with the benefit of several months of listening to a version of it. I say a version because though the...

[quote user="anthony"]In the 6 Channel Version of Super Melquiades
thread at post #89 you mention trouble you

user="anthony"]Looks like the Red 10's are circa 92dB/w/m as an
entire "speaker" including woofer. I've never played with them
before, but I wonder how much, if any, SPL is scrubbed from the tweeter by the
crossover so that it matches the...
