Stopped by at local audio friend this Sunday and watch some Brunner, Mahler and Wagner at his HT playback. He has integrated playback installation and video is played at his main system. I am not a fan of good quality of video playback and feel that...

[quote user="Steradian"] One area where standards have failed is in HDTV. I have no sympathy for the morons who decided to have 2 standards, 720p and 1080i. It is clear they prostrated themselves to corporate bribery to allow such to be called ...

Got today a December 2010 PS Audio Newsletter with an announcement from Paul McGowan:
“…So, in January 2011, we will release one of our secret projects that have been in the works for two years now, the PerfectWave P5 and P10 Power Plant...

“The Official Concert in Celebration of the 70th Anniversary of the Founding of Tateyama City. The Sakuma demonstrates his amplifiers in an ancient temple in Tateyama city. Altec A5 speaker system driven by his amplifiers (845, 211, 6336A etc) re...

I think it has already been stated. Batteries in audio are inherently of limited utility. It is a tendency of audiophiles to dedicate themselves to a single "silver bullet" instead of building the system based on the particular needs and compromises ...

I have in my basement a room that I do not use and I am in process of building Finnish cedar sauna in there. The pre-sauna room will have a fireplace, shower, rest facility and the rest ordinary sauna suspects. While I am constructing the frame and w...

Bach D Minor Piano concerto is probably the greatest Piano Concerto ever was composed and I have a mental problem with it. I had my favorite performances of Bach PC1… until I head Glenn Gould did it with Leonard Bernstein leading the Columbus Symphon...

Thanks de Charlus. Indeed countless hours with CAD soft and redoing the thing didproduce a nice visual effect (my pic is quite shitty and deformed...sorry).How it will behave? Time will show. Listening to audio racks is one of the last thingson eart...

Tokyo is no longer the electronics center of the world. But in the Akihabara district, there are still a lot of physical electronics / audio parts shops that DIY people should keep in mind.
These shops are generally mom-and-pop sized and may carr...

I have owned a PurePower 2000i (prior to the company moving its production back to Canada) and while it had a positive effect on the playback it created more issues than it solved with its noisy switching recharging circuit and the internal fans. The...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]the “sound” of these oscillators/inverters is something
that describes the sound of electricity. Tesla for sure would make great batteries
but I do not think that they would case to make oscillators “good for sound”.[/quo...

I saw Kojo Technology is looking for an engineer relating to audio power regeneration:http://kojo-seiko.co.jp/recruit.htmlRun the posting through google translate if you are interest in job and don't understand Japanese. I own some Kojo stuff but don...

I think you will only be able to decide about this after listening to some operas or other video-audio through the big system. The analog output of the video player may be good enough for the purpose, or it may sound terrible through the Milqs/Macon...

A site visitor send me a link from Arthur Salvatore and told
me that Arthur think along my lines:

Well, yes and now. For sure to a great degree I agree with
Arthur’s comments and I would ad...

When I was 12-13, and heard for a first time floorstanders connected to system consisted of separated devices. I grew up behind the Iron Certain where sound and music choices was extremely limited . My dad had HITACHI TRK radio-cassetophone, it was ...

[quote user="RF at Ona"]Romy and friends,Reading about the sensitivity of your system to electrical power supply problems reminds me of the days when I used to make my own equipment as much for the learning experience as for the final result.One of t...

[quote user="Axel"] I think, I mentioned it before, if your system works (for you) you listen to music ONLY, MOSTLY anyway, and all this definition stuff feels more and more like mind-fucking, that takes you away from the real thing -- the music, wha...

Ok, so you do not like 'soul' that you as the 'creator' have put into an object, that you happen to make what it is. - I guess that's not quite so fine by me, kind of stone-cold :-(Why would I CARE for a bunch of wires and a lump of metal, ...

The Targeted Audio Listening has nothing to do with general music listening and it is just an ingredient of a very narrow audio evolutions. It might be as stupid as just brainless acknowledgment of individual sound or as complex as assessment of...

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"] In my new room, I can't find the patience to listen to Bruckner. I can now listen to concertos and pieces with content in the tone and space, but if the music takes too long to get into it, I become impatient, then feel l...

It is almost ironic, in the context of your original post, that you've refered me to "Physics" as a sort of generic introduction or prerequisite to practical musical ULF. But I do appreciate your applied thoughts on the evils of feedback loops, and ...

[quote user="HDTT"] Just some clarification on a few points: I really don't care what people say about my recordings or how they sound I master my sound to what I feel is closest to the source and also "I think" I have no "signature" that is my goal....

Still, among the 0.000000001% of all people who do audio and who do accidently have a listening consciousness AND at the same time do have and interest in subjects of “Abstract Audio” there is “thinking”. Rgs, Romy the ca...

… and this certainly violates the idea of populization of audio by consumer publication. The absoluteness of audio orienteers dose not live in the audio loneliness but rather into a strict individualism of audio. However this individualism is applica...

Let's first try to go over some concepts to see if the both of you are speaking the same language (from Sphile's glossary):
coloration
An audible "signature" with which a reproducing system imbues all signals passing through it.
distortion

Yes, and particularly what enjoy with Patricia Barber (which is perfectly fine artist, BTW) that then when I go to the homes of an ordinary American audiophile then they have $90.000 worth of recommends Stereophile components and no more then entire ...
