I understand that Mr Kondo, the founder of Audio Note and more recently Kondo Sound Labs died in his sleep while attending the recent show in Las Vegas.Kondo pioneered the use of silver cable in the late 70's, owned and operated YL acoustics making s...

[quote user="xandcg"]For the record, and wide talking, the LampizatOr sound is on the same boat of Audio Note (UK).[/quote]Ear dac4 is not so transparent and it's volume control should be removed in my idea.I guess Audionote is good but it's sound is...

The SS out does calm/quiet/clear things considerably, but there is a price for that clarity, as I have reported.You probably already looked into JFET?Do I "remember" that you had a stash of exotic adjustable air-core caps? As you can tell ...

then everyone here will just read, "gullible". However I admit to being totally hypnotized by the Duelund spiel, which I find oddly compelling despite no real, "serious" information apart from the sort mystical, quasi-reverential ...

I spend my time/effort/money to get a good sound from computer or MacBook.my trial and error proved me that I could not attack CEC TL0-X by Computer Audio.I also lost my money 4500$ in ordering external PSU to Paul Hynes. Paul is not trusted and do n...

Hi Amir,your english is just fine.I think that there is an additional factor that your formula needs. Sense of pitch is not determined acoustically by "Q" unless we are talking about pure sine waves. When we add the overtones found on real musical in...

I'm new to the site and have had an interest in horn speakers since owning my first SET amplifier over 10 years ago. I've heard about a dozen horn speakers at shows and private demonstrations but have never heard any that I could live with. I'm cur...

I know, I know, you all need from each other are the building plans and building ideas. You all need to know are the list of the drivers, list of horns types, and list of the recommendation how to drive the channels. But I would like to note that wit...

This was the most astonishing and bewildering moment of my
entire audio life. It was in 2000. That time I lived in cozy downtown Boston
apartment that I absolutely loved. The apartment sounded fabulously with pretty

Nope, I do not have any proof to the rumor as I do not use the Japanese transformers. I heard them many times, was not liking the entire sound of the playbacks (do not blame only transformers for that) but since I never myself dealt with Japanese tra...

I don't know this Steve Klein. I don't know what bullshit he uses to sell Audio Note's products in the US. If that is what you are attempting to satirise then fine.I am quite familiar with Audio Note Japan's (Kondo) products. I don't use any at the m...

Ok, this article is about good thing in audio – the price. Yes, ironically nthere is ONE aspect of audio when price works very nicely. During the last few years a lot of publicity in media was spent to the recent Stradivarius revelation. Search and...

Not sure of the cost of advertising in the "big audio journals", but it seems "the companies with money" are always trying to maximize return on investment, like any "good" business venture does. One popular strategy is to "get a name, then reel 'em ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Joaco, thanks for sharing. You said that you use 2A3/45 amplifier, do you use choke or capacitance right after your rectifiers? It would be interesting if you plug a scope into your loaded regenerator and post a picture (ma...

The first level of listening perception is Static Level. At this level a listener perceives musical information as a collection of the individual sounds and a listening awareness tries to evaluate the “convince-ability” of those sounds. At this level...

Just how important are subharmonics and undertones in audio, and how they affect tone? I played around for a while with the Townshend supertweeters, this is a ribbon tweeter that you can barely listen to: you plug it in and put it next to your...
