Dear Romy, taking ultrasound equipment as an example, there would appear to be much in common in the operation of ultrasound equipment as with a sound system. There is analog signal send/receive, conversion of analog signal received to digital ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I find it very covenant to run analog source and then be able to switch the source signal passing across Pacific A/D-D/A where both D/A and DAW run from the same Pacific’s A/D clock. In fact it is so convenient that I asked...

Here we go: another yell of a disturbed feline.... How come that after years and years of analog glory, decadence and renaissance the audio industry still has no seriously performing RIAA phonocorrectors. I would not even go to MC correctors or...
|
Romy, the suspense is killing me. Since it works so great at 10% I hope you will at least try this thing with your analog gear, too. Sure, something that actually works for amps would be almost unbelievable in and of itself...

That is very interesting post Romy. I noticed that I have changed a lot of CD-Players and Dacs over the years until I found the sound I wanted, but only had to change my Tuner once, and my analog playback has been the same for years and years n...

Witti,the sound of YouTube is all that I hear. Digitized analog playback is a sort of backup, but any real advantages of analog playback are lost when you digitize so there is no LCR sound left.How did you digitize the playback?...

You can try: https://www.ap-linux.com/ instead. I think there is not anything special on Voyager, it is just tweaked to use very little space what is not a problem on that board. You can easily find a CompactFlash card with 64GB, what is a lot more m...

[quote user="alexd"]To answer your question about DAW output vs tuner. Well Tuner is not highest quality source to start with. I do not think you will hear much difference between DAW analog output and tuner analog output.[/quote]
It is unquestionab...

If you follow this thread and my successes and tribulation with PurePower regenerators than you remember that I had problem with sound running two PP2000 for right and left channels. So, I had everything, including my DAW plugged into on PP2000,...

It seems that brainlessness knows no limits. Both Mr. Hansen and Mr. Rankin speak nonsense. Wasting time on text like this is like reading the brochures from extreme audio equipment. All the things that "audiophiles" expect someone to say, get sa...

it seems digital design is harder than analog design.good Q&A Charles Hansen, Gordon Rankin:http://www.audiostream.com/content/draft#Jwd0w77ZLMYORVJa.97http://www.audiostream.com/content/theres-no-such-thing-digital-conversation-charles-hansen-go...

This subject of digital crossovers became quite popular during last few years and many audio-people give up and go for a simplicity and painlessness of digital crossovering. There is an army of people out there who would swear by a complete transpare...

BTW,the contemporary preamps are rather music servers with analog emergency operation.http://www.audionec.com/...

Hi Romy,I am curious as to why you object to the use of digital crossovers. Is it solely due to the ADC for analog sources? Assuming that digital is the sole source, would you still conceptually object and why? I realize you probably have touched...

[quote user="Bill"] If you are going to build such a huge cabinet or put a hole in the floor to use the basement as a chamber, why not just build horns in the basement with a straight 8-10 foot section in the basement with the back chamber re...
|
Romy's thread makes for sad reading. I assume from all that I have seen that most of the "high res" files were taken from 16 bit Cd files or processed at that rate at some point in the processing chain. There are probably a handful of conscientious e...
|
[quote user="Kerry Brown"] A digital crossover with lower bit depth and sampling rate than the recordings it's processing won't deliver maximum sound quality; unfortunately my DEQX crossover is limited to 24/96 so it can't process hi-res digital ...
|
I mean we can take real live analog music, convert it 100% to digital and get incredible playback if we pay attention to details but we can't take an ANALog 60/50Hz AC signal and clean it up enough for MEGA expensive equipment.Electricity IS a proble...
|
Well my PP 2000 + has gone back twice and currently I have it but can not use it due to a grounding issue only with analog. The guys at PP are trying to figure this all out but no answers to date. It is dead quite with digital but I don't listen to d...
|
I like to know is there any idea in romy mind about proper digital implementation ?do you think we can replace analog with proper implemented digital without lossing any important thing?but about my idea :I think digital at it's best can give us tran...

[quote user="jp"]In my experimentations, the da924 doesnt contribute much noise in my setup. Rather in my setup its the lavry ad122 thats the trouble maker. When all digital is turned off I have a very quiet background. Here are my observations...
|
Nope, I never neard it. Well, I did, as well I heard some this small TTs but it was at the conditions where it was virtually imposable to say anything defiantly. The most weak element of most of the better analog installations are dead phonostages an...

i am well aware of the problems the 47 labs approach brings along with the good things it does.i have at times in my setups good results,in other setups disaster.47 and audionote use no digital/oversampling filter.this obviously can have negative con...

On a really fundamental level, this conversation isn't working. Good luck with the site, and happy listening (digital or analog).MW...

[quote user="steverino"]Romy, I thought it was you or maybe I read it elsewhere. SACD was originally a multibit high sample rate format. I believe Sony went to one bit for "security" reasons to prevent copying. I think it's hard to rule out digital ...

I listened one time (just one time) to master tape (revox reel).micro harmonic was so better than dCS Elgar (digital source) and it was better in micro dynamic. i did not tested good DSD in a good DAC vs good analog but in micro linearity analog and ...
