[quote user="Chirag"]The 6E5P is an interesting device (I did some research after you dropped the "tetrode" hint and bought a few :-)), but the bias scheme with the OA2's is still incomprehensible to me. [/quote]Ok, I will try to explain.

I need to admit that I absolutely adore my listing room. I like absolutely everything about it and if I enumerate what hat I like about it then the list will be long. Ironically, from a perspective of self-education I sometime try to nail down wh...

After posting last night the post above I got a few emails from the people asking me why I am so angry and why I feel that industry people are valuable only in dead form. Those unfortunate audio people with their questions are so dull. I have exp...

[quote user="jweiss"] When we spoke at CES, you mentioned that your experience with field coil drivers only extended to cone types. So I assume that you have never heard any field coil compression drivers. That would include the WE 555, 594, RCA 1428...

One shall not be Nostradamus to be able to foresee that I would religiously appose to this approach for playback evaluation. I do understand why Harman would love it as it creates a sales tolls and the sales rationalization but it has absolutely...

Actually it was not only the best worst amplifier at CES but it was the best worst amplifier I even heard in my life.
So what happen between the WAVAC 833 and Sound? A lot of quite unique things…

I went recently at the Soundstage.com site and read Marc Mickelson’s comments about ML3.

It looks like the Cogent boys came up with a new design. It is good that they are keep looking, even thogh they unfortunately are restricted with their desire to stretch the use of their drivers over too wide bandwidth….

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...

[QUOTE]So what is high end audio, then? I know for some it is the quest for
the perfect soundstage, but let us exclude them for the moment. Rather,
is it a way for us to become more connected to the Sound? In a sense,

I do not mean visualizing the sound waves or music, that is a relatively smile task. What I mean is a visualizing of Sound. To depict sound is very finical; it is like depicting of wind, did you see any good attempts?
