Thanks, twogoodears. I do not particular care about the frequencies cut-offs as I do not know the ALE drivers. If I speak with the system owner in context of what you say then I would post 3 questions: 1) What specific limitation or shortcoming of...

I do not believe in applied presbyacusis. It is not that I do understand the subject of loosing spectral sensitively with age but I certainly do not feel that deterioration of HF sensitivity makes a person more or less capable to register music. We ...

Yesterday I was working for a half day at the part of the house were my Altec 19 are sitting and just to keep myself entertained I set up the Altec 19 to play from my add-hog playback: Sony $30 DVD player, Yamaha C2A preamplifier and Yamaha B-2 power...

I think 15 years back I was speaking with a famous industry person who told that the responsibility of an individual who run an audio publication is to match the stupidity of audio product to the stupidity of reviewer. he said that if manufacture ma...

[quote user="haralanov"] The ribbon is 100% tonally … If you use this tweeter lower than 10kHz your system will be totally unlistenable because you cannot reproduce the proper tone of harmonics.[/quote] It is pretty much what I found as well during m...

Zanon, My playback is nowhere near the state where I might think about the DPoLS, I am trying to set up a very rudimental basic balanced sound in the new room, approximately defining where would be the speakers, what they will be doing and how they w...

There are a few moments I am working with now. One is the notorious “viola dryness” – the concept that I am staggering for years. Another thing is that my room each some dynamics of my Macondo – something that my old room did not do. OK it is given t...

The noise that PP generated in my case during the first minutes of charging a completely discharged battery was nothing close to “buzzing” or “buzzing saw wave oscillation”. It more sound like a very strong stream of water rushing out nozzle. It is m...

Well, since I will not experiment with many of them I'm kind of narrowing down the scope of the amps that I would like to get. In 70s-80s break there was a short period of time when Yamaha and Sony made top of the line amps around V-FET output t...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]A could years ago here and there begun to pop up small SS class “D” amplifiers made with high-end pretence. They all sounded like shit but by the efforts of a number of typically deaf and stupid or just simply whorish audio...

OK, I agree – it might be not necessary as PP2000 does produce fine electricity in a convenient package. Furthermore it violates the rule that I try to follow in audio generally: define snick objective and ONLY then render audio methods.

Well, one way or another I will fix my B2 amp. I think while I have no bass amp it would be a good idea to try other amps for ULF: powerful tube amps or even class D amps. I do not have inspiration to dry Class D amps and I have no powerful tube amp...

Whoever follows this thread of mine note my exuberant reaction to the new fixed PP2000. What however I discover today is that for the last few days, right after the snow storm, the quality of electricity in my lines is phenomenal as well. I have abso...

N-set, at this point I am under impression (not conviction however) that a hybrid with some kind of harmonic correction circuit can do the job but spend much less blood. I have to admit that the best hybrids that I head had (Lamm M1.1) no where remot...

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...

Well, Daren,there is a huge difference between the 1.200 sq feet and 12.000 sq feet. The 1.200 sq feet is a good size room the 12.000 sq feet is good size concert hall for a couple thousand people…. So we are back to a sane listening room…. :-)Intere...

The damn Milqs and everything else do a lot of hit and I have been running during the hot days a pair of small monitors with consumer-grade 100V A/B amplifier. The only requirement that I have that the 100V A/B is driver from my default preamp and I ...

At the 7-level perceptual paradigm was operating not Sakuma by Cho-sun for Micro-Seiki. Sakuma was not operating in my view at any level but just listed highly band-passed, highly compressed gray sound. Nl, feels that “Systems like these are all abou...

Actually it turned out that LE5-2/2105 are much more complicated driver and to sound right it need way more complex crossover then juts a band-pass the I initially unused. I spend some time with it today but did not find a configuration the I feel co...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The problem is that I detect that if I record in 44/24 or 88/24 in single-wire mode but the second wire is connected from Lynx to Pacific (and the line is muted by Lynx mixer) then I do have worsening of sound quality. The ...
