I find this project so fascinating. I find it particularly interesting because one of my first experiences of good sound involved a field coil driver. Many years ago my grandfather bought an old hammond chord organ(predates the b3 and other...

Recently I am trying to get some distance from this so called ''hobby" of mine (i.e., a lite...

Still, you Boston people have no idea what it's like to have literally nothing, ever, apart from the odd bit included by happenstance on the 1 ridiculous station that's available. The 1 station I get here has NO IDEA WHATSOEVER they are playing....

...This feeling of lost phonostage really poisons my entire getting new house ceremony and I am very upset…Is it God punished me for the overly ambitions name of the phonostage – “The End of Life Phonostage” or is it som...

Jessie, the "Horn Free Lunch" derives exactly and specifically from "efficiency" registered at frequencies much higher than those ultimately required from the driver in the horn speaker. The horn is there only to provide "gain" at lower frequencies...

[quote user="Paul S"]But I do appreciate your applied thoughts on the evils of feedback loops.[/quote]I don't think that feedback loops are evil. They solve some problems and create others. Your human body employs a virtually infinite number of suc...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Kunashirsky, I do not want to “estimate the remastered vinyl obtained by this technology”. Nether I want to “go to Page 8 of your site” or to any other page. It look like you have some kind of strong believes about some kin...

Since Sound in new home is mostly set I kind lost interest to do anything “project-wise”. I play my music and I gradually tune ingredients to get the sonic mixture that I accustom to. Last two week I was slowly playing with my analog setup. Since...

Hi Romy and JJTriode:
I wish I could take credit for all of the very pertinent commentary by Rosalyn Tureck, extracted below but I will not. I do agree with the sentiment though and the reasoning behind her expressed...

I play a lot of LP recently and last night I noted that sound was quite bad. It was like a bad electricity day only atop of it sound has some kind of odd digitalization atop of everything. Of course I was blaming the PurePower 3000 but then I realize...

de Charlus, thank you very much for the wonderful narrative. For sure an exposure to a good audio installation and witnessing what it can do to sound able to redefine our believes in functional meaning of a playback. I think we all who mingling with...

Ok, understood, at least somewhat. Are you suggesting that the S2 operates at the frequencies between 1000hz and 3.6khz? I am not insisting upon using the driver at the frequencies that I was initially suggesting; far from it, actually, as these were...

At the risk of sounding like a yahoo, can i ask you romy if you have used your PC for internet radio playback. , as opposed to cd or other forms of digital playback ? My cd collection played out of iTunes to my DAC sounds lifeless, pointless. Howev...

Rony, not to beg the issue of sound, per se, but I have lived in 4 houses that looked +/- like the one you've pictured. They were not the best with respect to rote Sound development, but they were very Family Friendly, which, in the end, has served ...

First, I'm impressed someone managed to create a website of substance on such a vapid topic as high end audio..Last night I saw the seattle symphony orchestra do berlioz damnation of faust. I was late because I stupidly didn't look at the ticket and...

Haralanov, I partially know what you are talking about and I got my sense of it when I added the Fundamentals and Insertion channels. They both are position above MF and act as nice compliment to Macondo upperbass horn. I still do not know if the...

It has been changed. Looking at the extend of my record collection, the efforts I went with my TT setup and my “End of the Life Phonostage” it would be hardly expected from me to be somebody else a die-hard vinyl dude but it is what it is. Those feel...

It has been a lot of audio damage in this household
lately. A year ago, my wife, for whatever reasons, decided to get a dog, which clearly
