Hm…m… I do not know how about that.
Well, the SG146XX
where the most interesting from one perspective and the most problematic from

I have no comments about it besides assuring that the company that state all of it does crap in term of Sound. Still, I find that the way in which they think about construction of the walls of their back-loaded horn worth very much attention. Tak...

There
are some commercial preamps that have sub 10R output: Karana, Quicksilver,
Rogueaudio and many others. Some of them will ship the units to you to try. It
might be good to experiment with them. To have you local guy who will work with
you is...

Here is the general specification for the parts that I used. The selection of the parts implies some liberty of course. It will be your amp after all, not mine - do whatever you wish. In some case when I feel that requirement is critical I will stres...

A few things I would like to say in context of Pham’s playback.
I will leave his infatuation with turntables alone – man like to collect turntables and he within his constitutional right to do whatever makes him happy. The problem that I see ...

I was promising to tell stories of my audio miracles with no
order of chronology or importance, so here is another one. I think it was in
2002-2003. I was transitioning from Lamm amplifications to Melquiades and was contemplating
to introduce a DH...

Last year Amy’s
parents began considering to move closer to us. They are at their high 70s,
with own health problems and with a desire to spend more time with grandkids…
nothing different then with many other families... They were looking for vari...
