[quote user="manisandher"]Romy, this is very interesting indeed. I'm assuming that the sonic difference between these two files is in line with the sonic difference you hear between bad and good 'electricity' days when you're just listening to music,...

[quote user="decoud"] If a magnetic field is static, who cares how it is created? Isn't the main potential advantage of electromagnets one that no one has explored at all - the possibility of modulating the field strength in direct response to the au...

The Jean-Michel Le Cléac'h’s horns or as I call them La-Horns get a lot of popularity among people who are trying to build horns loaded systems. But as anything else in audio the Morons hear any noise and they has no idea how to associate the noi...

Nice rant about "scientists"; but I suppose you are preaching to the choir here.I jumped in not to pile on the stupid "scientists" but to address the rendering of bass, and ULF in particular, in the context of home hi-fi.A while back I got a splash o...

Stitch,
the only thing that you are missing is paying attention to the OMA advertisements and truing to recognize behind it any rational beside a pimp yearling own merchandise (in fact it is not his merchandises). I told many times before tha...

[quote user="unicon"] el 0l if you could understand the basics about how audio waves especially bass range acts in closed space you wouldnt even bring the name Bass EQ
it just cures the sound pressure in a single spot(listener) and possibly ca...

A couple days back reading the Audio Tekne’s Philosophy Section:

… in the part of “Amending your stereo system to improve it” I read the following:
“Please use the carbon de-coupler wi...

Hi Mats:
Thanks for the update. I find the Lavry DA-11 to be an interesting unit, not because of all the "features" but because of Mr Lavry's long history producing serous DACs and the consumer-friendly pricing. I do wish that Mr Lavry did...

[quote user="Marc HENRY"]La Grande Castine will not be as expensive as Cessaro Gamma.
i am sorry but i cannot answer to all questions, for several reasons you can understand.we have tested many drivers since the early prototype of La Grande Ca...

I do not know the Lapmpizator but from what I have seen at his site I would not invest a lot into his assessment of sound. Those people, like most of those audio-DIY people, do not any sonic objectives and their actions are just a series of endl...

[quote user="Paul S"]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...

Hello Romy a long time visitor now a member. I have always been interested in what improvements can be made to my incoming power. I use a BPT 2, PS noise harvesters and quite lines through out the house. My system has always had very good sound...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
It is a recursive subject at my site that the sad state of music/audio industry is not due to some cosmic or social reasons but due to the very specific and very idiotic actions of very specific individuals who run the i...

My idea of Dunnoy loudspeaker took an interesting turn. I would like to capitalize upon what I discovered above an to vandalize my woofer towers, factoring Tanoy Red in it. So, it will ended up with Reds working in a half of wolfed towers w...

I still highly recommend making the intellectual effort (was quite substantial for me) and reading that Jung chapter. You might recognize in his analysis of alchemists quite a few psychological things you have been talking about in audio for yea...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Dynamics and they mostly come from electric relationship between amplification and drivers. [/quote]I would certainly add to that the relationship between the driver and the enclosure. I know I am on the other side of the ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Also, I need to mention that a very small monitor
made with a full range driver that I heard once was the most interesting sound
the I even hear in audio. It was not the most interesting sound overall but
there was one s...

I don't remember from my head and would need to watch the video again, and I don't have time right now to watch it again, but IIRC that was about 35min.
At the same time, while I do agree with your initial argument,...

Very interesting Amir.
I am also waiting on a Model 5, to arrive in the UK. It was ordered some months ago but I ordered a balanced version (this one will be all-balanced - two balanced inputs and balanced output) and that's tak...

Yes, Anthony, any horn by nature has what I call horn arc. At the bottom of the range the channel boost output, then the gain slowly decay and become almost like a direct radiator and then the output begin to roll off at HF by horn until the driver r...

Yes, Thorsten was the man
that made the initial modification in the EAR 834 and I need to note that it
was not redesign of any kind but juts basic modifications and admitting the unnecessary
things. Even though Thorsten is the industry p...

I went to THE Show again this year, along with a couple of audio friends. This year I was better prepared, with preconceived notions about what I wanted to see/hear, and where to find that gear. I did not try to “cover” the show, at all. I just wa...

N-set. I am sorry to hear that you have in any way been itouched by the greedy, filthy, heartless assholes who keep coming up with justifications for wars. May thay live forever where everyone is exactly like they are.
As for the SUT, this seems l...

You should take care that you do not daisy chain the ground leads. Refer to following text.From my perspective, you should treat the L and N leads as one type of circuit and the PE as a separate circuit. Electrical codes, rules etc do not insist tha...

And as one of the other perpetrators...The nature of this kind of thing is compromise. The owner of the bass horn system wanted to run them together, for the enlarged horn mouth, and so we did - there was never going to be enough time to play about ...

A few days ago I visited a local friend of mine. He has a decent audio setup in his living room with mid-size monitors. Leaving aside what sound he is getting just would note that I know what to expect in his room. This time it was a bit more the...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]I heard this TT, it was magnificent, almost no coloration to speak of, dead dead quiet. Of course it wasn't plugged in and there was no tonearm or cartridge yet but man I loved the sound! Really whatnthe hell is everyon...
