Peter,It is obviously that in your installation Lavry and FM are much more isolated then in mine. In fact if your power amp breaks both ground and central wire then when you switch you playback to “Leg B” then digital in not in the picture at all. Ev...

Peter,
The subject of the music servers and the subjects of HOW to record FM are probably the subjects of other threads. I am sure that recording might be implemented by different means - as long as you feel that you do not lose the quality that FM...

The quoted subject of this
post describes the sound of this beast very well. Some commentary about your
post.
If you do have good stations
in your region worth listening then you can do better than simple 167cm

I began to research live broadcasts in my area, and I found there is one station that broadcasts live every Saturday morning some local folk music, readings, sort of variety show, from a local club I have actually been to in Berkeley. I had no idea. ...

Perusing my objective to be able to do FM recording remotely by VPN to my home recording equipment I think I found the last entry that I would like to have. I do not clearly understand if it is exactly what I need but it looks very promising.

3MBS tell me that they cuurently do not know which bit rate is going to be used in their digital broadcast. They have a contract with another company which decides on how much bandwith is allocated. They are pushing for a high bandwith because th...

[quote user="rwjp"]I live in Melbourne Australia and happened to listen to this live broadcast last night, at a low level due to having two young kids.

Since FM long has been my primary at the most enjoyable audio source I decided to push the envelope a little further. The Rohde & Schwarz tuner bind via wide-bandwidth output with modified Yamaha T-85 MPX decoder sounds identical to Sansui TU-X1....

[quote user="rowuk"]How many sources do you currently have? If you are building a phono corrector, make it for 4 volts output. If you have a PC for digital playback, there are good DACs with more than 2V output. That would leave a tuner to pimp - cer...

[quote user="scooter"]Sorry about that. Vince has good days and bad days; sometimes he just does not get it and you did correct by running out. Given his background in 80s solid state amps and your interesting piece of gear I thought he would have ...

[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...

My tastes in audio slowly but irreversibly migrate out of the “common audiophile sense”. Years ago I met some people form NY and Chicago, the former classical radio-station employees, the people with encyclopedic knowledge and understanding of m...

I spoke with various people about availability of upgrades for Sansui TU-X1. I have to admit that I have no problems with it sound and my concern is purely intellectual – there are better sounding resistors nowadays and there are better caps then ele...

[quote user="guy sergeant"] Can you describe how your vinyl playback and conventional CD playback fall short of what you are getting from FM? [/quote]
Guy, you are asking a resemble question but what do you expect me to say? Do you expect me to conv...

The Boston FM radio and my Sansui TU-X1 tuner gave another magnificent treat - a whole weekend of Bruno Walter music. I always liked Bruno Walter, although he never was my “buy on spot” conductor. Performances of some conductor (for instance Sc...

Last two weeks I play a strange game with myself while I am waking in my room. I walk soft like a Cat and really pay attention where I lend my leads, I afraid to step on anything. Nope, I did not pawn my Cat and got a hamster. What I afraid to step o...

There is large army of people who dedicate quite a lot of efforts in audio for “voicing” audio components, believing that different passive elements of electric circuit, cables, directivity of cables and many other things are “gravely important”.&nbs...

[quote user="peter foster"] I would probably start testing using TU-X1 FM OUTPUT (FIXED) as a first option. [/quote]
If you have the FIXED output then it is all “tweaking” that you need to do. Bothe of my TU-X1 were export version and both outputs w...

Thanks, Stitch, it give me a good laugh. The description of my Cats without the context of the idiots to whom I replied did not sound right. I would prefer to use this description instead:

Hi romy,
I am sorry I will not be much help regarding sound quality of FM at present. I do not currently record but hope to do so in the future. My FM stereo reception is poor but this is mostly to do with my aerial. I also live in a d...
