Ok, here is the final frequency response for each Super Milq channel. The souse was Denon CD player that rolls off a little atop. I did not measure the tweeter as I have no tweeters transformer plugged in yet. All secondary in amp are grounded. The m...

[quote user="item"] If you want to spin a CD during playback, for nostalgic reasons, then a CD player is fine. The only reason to do so, however, is to extract stored data. Computers have better ways to do this that don't invoke all the mechanica...

Yes indeed. The company was originally Nova Physics and appears to have been sold on to Sam Laufer, a lawyer by profession originally who brought in Mark Porzilli of Melos and Pipedreams fame. I do not know if this company actually manufactures or se...

That was very interesting post, here are some thoughts of my about it.
[quote user="KOTriode"]Romy, No, the DAC was not set at maximum level (for best sound) while Cyrille listening to the system. It was set at normal volume for the whole sys...

Guy,
I think you misunderstood or misapply the main point that I was trying to make in my reply. The problem with the participants in the audio industry is not within thier own personal level of Moronity (although is it very frequently is the case) ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Again, it was very interesting, but… Let agree that methodologically you did not try Placette as it performance was masked out by you need to use your Neurochrome buffer to get gain. Your chain will sound as the worst eleme...

Observations and Thoughts from theRocky Mountain Audio FestBy Earl Geddes
First I want to thanks all of the kind people who came by the GedLee room. I hope that we both learned something from these meetings.

I recognized that I have tired for the last week like hell. Do not ask me what I got tired from – I will not be able to say. That whole moving, packing, unpacking this was too exhausting… The good thing is that I go an interesting room as a resul...

With recent popularity of music servers (as Jessie noted in music servers thread) people develop certain ignorance and indifferent to the material they play. When I say indifference I mean the very specific apathy that very directly contradicts my ve...

Sorry, I misread, or rather read into, your comment. Still, my experience is that the file sounds better, to me,
on the cd player than
on the pc w/ usb dac. Not because of the cd is superior media, it is not. I can't refute ...

[quote user="hifitodd"] Frankly, from my perspective your stance on DPoLS mirrors that of the typical audio-moron voodooism. Here is some essentially non-obtainable state that when realized will make the listener "hypotized" by thew newfound mu...

Cat:First off, the Silbatone Aporia is $30k/pr not 100k. You could do 6 speaker surround with Aporia for well under $100k. Hope you feel better now."So what," I say. $30k is already too much for my pocket. I am on a fellowship this year and cheapskat...

I have some “issues” with the 176.4kHz idea, particularly knowing the most of the RR recordings were not recorded in 176.4kHz. I am glad that they did not go for X48K format but stuck with X44 (I more like the Linn’s 88.2KHz “Studio Masters” idea). S...

They offer 24/88 downloadable and thanks God they do not record the Audiophile Blues or the similar crap. This is a good part. The bad part is that they record at 4X and then outsource the file to vireos industry cretins to “master” them, pushing...
