It is very interesting as my new Schaub & Lorenz radio is a phenomenal illustration of bad sound. It has “large” and “full sound” with very impressive “bass size” but sat the same time this sound is absolutely dead. In fact audio people might lea...

We did not have it in FM, it was a TV feed. I did not listen the Magnus Lindberg overture and I did not particularly care about the "Symphonie Fantastique". I was interested in the Messiaen’s songs with Renée Fleming and it was what I was watching a...

I have to say, that I genially like the new 99.5. I do not have as perfect reception as I had with 97.9 with absolutely clear, no noise background. Still, thankfully the compression of the new 99.5 is very low and last night and today live broadcasts...

I’m very far from being able to express any more or less valuable opinion on the subject however, what I understand that they/you are taking about small signal-level devised. Whatever it worth, I feel that pure SS can care line-level tasks perfectly ...

Thanks, John. We all adults and we all know how much difference between Realty and what we see on TV, particularly if we have done TV for living. As I told Sakuma might be is more interesting then the cult that I feel purely artificially is made abou...

[quote user="Paul S"]What a relief! No matter how many times it happens, at some point I always wind up adjusting my system to compensate for bad electricity! [/quote] I would concur with it – sine the temperature dropped last week here in Boston the...

I have heard that here and there an advertising of new 12AX7 production.http://www.musicdirect.com/product/73403I wonder if it is the truly new production of some kind of new manufacturer (like Emission Labs or similar) or juts rebranded and repainte...

Merlin, might I ask you if you can recognize anything from my post:

I don´t know whether the audio industry`s products are so sophisticatet that they need mathematical steam hammers to improve them. In a German forum there is a discussion about a diploma work from the TU Berlin where the student found out in psychoac...

[quote user="Paul S"] I have stated several times that the ML2s are less sensitive to bad electricity than my phono stage, and this is true. However, this is not to say that the amps are immune to bad electricity. In fact, it is the effects of bad el...

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

[quote user="zako"] I think it is you to claim irrational,,,in suggestion its a advance model,,,calling people fools or morons because they find some mono recordings..sounding better,,,Remember alot of YOUNGER people never new mono recordings exhiste...

[quote user="Paul S"]What one NEVER hears from these guys is why and how they evolve their sound over time, and this is because the particular product or products is/are the focus….[/quote]Sure, it would be very reasonable expectation to hear about t...

Stefano, it is funny that you have mentioned the “an old, little cinema in a small town”. I do not know if you did it unintentionally or you meant as some kind of sarcastic self-deprecated joke. What I mean is that the initial industry demands for ru...

…and I do not know how to describe the difference about it. A sweet spot of acoustic system is a location where Sound of speaker in a room are “focused” together. The sweet spot with Grand Utopia is a very specific distance at wish the problems with ...

It is difficult to talk with audio people about Horns. It is a constraint problems, and not only in audio, when the mistakes of a specific poor implementation or a chase of a mistaken tangentional notions might shatter an entire concept. The very sam...

Dear CatThey do not shout or go hard when pushed.Metallic sounds such as cymbals and percussion instruments are the most life like.It also brings immediacy to the sound of speakers.Like you have said in another thread how speakers are the worst link,...

The mean KOTriode in his thread “A different breed of 6C33C amplifier“ jinxed me with his 6C33C vulnerability and today my output tube at right midbass channel went down. The characteristic pings, which via the midbass horn sound like house room is c...
|
Thank you Romy! Actually I've realized that when I wrote it I rather ment dynamical stability then frying the outputs. But in proper PP the even order harmonics are strongly surpressed, sothere should be no or very little change of the output OP due ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]It is unquestionably an ambiguous project. The topmost question that I would ask myself after this project would be the following: can Milq-biased 6E5P to be as good (sound-wise) DC driver as some vintage direct heated tube...

I am slowly contemplating to put a baby grand piano in my listening room. Besides all other considerations there is one that fascinates me - how the presence of a piano in listening room will affect sound acousticly. I do remember in past I had guita...
|
Rowuk, I think you take the subject of acoustic in listening room a bit wrongly, would it be for audio or for your trumpet. The reflection of bass wave back to the listener is not the problem at all, at least in my assessment. The key is in decay pat...

Actually I have found a perfect association how to describe the Y0-186 sound, it sound like dill herb. This might explain my love to Y0-186 as dill is one of the most beloved smalls and taste. A combination of dill and garlic is a magic small that wo...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] This week on Thursday and Friday I had two “audio visitors” in my listening room. We did some listening and as it have become customary: they asked me to show something “interesting” or different in my Opera Room. BTW,...

[quote user="ghpicard"]Hi Romy, I wonder whether you could advance on the octal voltage regulator testing on the Milq, and what your conclusions were. As I have already seen Milq on your new home still with the 0A2s I can assume you weren't much sa...

Decoud, I have 4 questions to ask The configuration of chasses you use implies that input has to be in the mid of the amp in front. I however, do not see it. So, where is the input and why it is too far from the first grid? What brand/made/specificat...

Yesterday my local audio guy visited me. He also fold in love with YoYo tube, flipping juts once between the normal linear tubes and YoYo was enough for him to ask me to leave the YO86 in there and do not change it anymore. We both agreed that it is ...

It is not the subject that I closely observe at this point but I have to tell you that paling with my new MF amp I do develop some linking to Chinese Shuguang tubes. They are pretty good and for $75 per pair new they are surprisingly good. I am not f...
|
After all, I faced a problem where I did not expect it. The MF channel with no wirewound LPAD attenuator sounds more extended but at the same time not all of that extra HF too useful. In fact, what I hear is that with the series resistor Sound ha...
