Hmmm - the whole LCR thing, I don't like the idea. I'll admit to having no experience of it, but in engineering terms, it just gives you a constant impedance filter. The EQ is still done by caps essentially, far as I can tell. I see the wh...

Hello Coops,
Can you explain more why the Allnic 1500 is the best phono you have heard, and why was it superior to the Cole LCR ?
What is the superiority of LCR-RIAA phonostages , besides having excellent RIAA correction curves ? What about the...

IMO, any sonic benefits from running Lowthers stock are totally swamped by excessive, ragged response that is generally (but not steadily...) rising - a lot - toward HF. There have been many ideas for "taming the Lowther", and here is another one, b...

Hi,this is my first post. This forum seems to be the hotbed for Goto discussion of some sort but there is barely any data but only a swamp of assumptions. So I bought a pair of SG-370DX drivers with S600 horns and measured them. Here's the frequency...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"][/quote]Ok, here are some thoughts that I have after the last night experiments. The tests were made with Sunfire subwoofer, wiath is bad sounding machine but excellent LF test source. The Sunfire slope wary from 3rd order...

I heard the 'cole' LCR phono by the hifi supply recently at a friends house and it sounded ok, the Allnic 1500 that I am using at the moment is the best phono I have heard, and the price is extremely reasonable for the design, valve regula...

Romy,what I meant was why choose LCR active over a RC RIAA passive EQ?Is there a logical explanation for this or does it just sound better in your experience?/P...

Cello HI I have only heard the Cole for a short time, so it wouldn't be fair to compare, also I really can't say to what extent the LCR circuit contributes to the sound of the 1500, the Allnic is very dynamic, has high resolution and makes inst...

What you posted on to youtube is not "sound" rather about as far away from that as one can get. The TEAC has its own sonic signature as does YouTube and anyone who listens own playback chain. There is no way that anyone can determine anything about t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] It is not a the thread about Allnic but LCR RIAA correctors, still there was something expressed in here about the Allnic LCR phonocorrector… and I feel bad about it. It is not that I don’t think that Allnic LCR phono...

Romy Hi, I just didn't want you to think that i was just another hifi dealer , I just really liked the speakers, re the Allnics innards I will forward your question to Ralph at Cessaro he is the international distributor, I do k...

You are right about the sound of YouTube.I recorded the sound directly from LCR phono through TASCAM DR-100 recorder (24 bit / 96 kHz) and added it into video then uploaded to YouTube....

"So, my position is my feeling that LCR might be adventitious and it is what I “prefer” as better RIAA filter. Still, I use my feedback RC, so what, who said that what I USE must be what I prefer?"Romy that is Very refreshing view!Im not convinced th...

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?...

Recently I was visiting a guy who has Alnic H-1500 LCR Phono stage. I actually had a chance to open it up and to inspect it.

Looks like another case where clean AC wall power is demanded and supposed. Since they use triode output, I wonder if the "gain path" of the pentode is "wired triode", as well, or if they just want the extra gain to scrub in the upcoming RIAA; or ma...

TTH's ?By the way I've heard several 834's not just one. You are right though, I don't particularly care for what I feel is its rather obvious character.No ET magnetics either, hard to find/hear over here. I think a just handful were sold...

Up to the first fold the horn is somewhat conical as seen in post #1 picture.This picture shows the exit w/ additional angle wall (making for "corner" loading).This has a greater (uncalculated) flare something like a compound CD horn.Resonant F unkno...

Roman,> Any IC-base RIAA corrector should cost $30, with no expiations.Now now.... My "Analogue Addicts Phono Stage" is Op-Amp based and requires at current OEM bugetary pricing in 1000pc lots of $12.25 each. Add Tinfoil & Polystyrene Capacito...

Thanks for the tube gel sockets/absorbers hinting, Roman... Thomas had to use such a vibes taming mandatorily, being both 801 AND 437A tubes rather microphonic prone...Using his clever design... ZUT! Completely silent... also, unfortunately, he had t...
