[quote user="mem916"]I never tried the Onyx. I had an Urushi, then a Jade, and now a Coralstone. No I didn't buy any of them in the US so I paid a lot less than the crazy retail prices people throw around. I only know one person personally who...

I have been looking forward to build my own dedicated passively cooled, Windows based source, with external power supplies and SSD drive, based on an HFX Classic case, or even better, the HFX Mini Metal, sometime towards the summer of next year. See ...

good point in here;graphic cards perform so well because they are optimized to perform limited tasks and are cheap.I have been listening

The most interesting thought to come out of this thread for me is surfing the wave versus making the wave (or, making a part of the wave...).Personally, I just enjoy listening to great music in my home, and I am happy any time this can happen. ...

Gentlemen:I've thought about this mid-bass challenge for quite some time. I have tried many approaches.For the sake of my example, let's assume mid-bass to cover from 60-600Hz. That just happens to be the classic "decade". I have to fully agree with ...

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?
I was sent to an Asian si...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] As now the Rohde & Schwarz + T-85 sound just wonderful and I would not look for other Multiplex Decoders with exception of a future idea to built one even better (with L de-emphasize) INSEDE of the Rohde & Sc...

Not too many of the cheaper horns have really interested me so far, but I think that we here should help others with this as it could better help them have some horns and horn interest in general. I haven't payed too much attention to much ...

Anthony , having a room slightly bigger than your and
the rest the same I feel that 3V I get from my frond end is just barely enough.

I would like to expose what my intentions are what I was tiling above about Goto 555 or a similar 200Hz driver. My S2 does not stress the bottom of my 183Hz horn. My multi-cell is expositional and those types of horns do pick honk very aggressively ...

This kind of freakish subject and the title of this thread is most likely is very misleading. Commonly the term “last something” is used as “best of the best” after which there is nothing else to explore. This definition grotesquely stink with heavy ...

[quote user="jam"] (maybe another RX-5000 as a
flywheel might work?) If not set up correctly(which can be a pain) it can cause

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

For instance the 2A3 has no tungsten cathodes and therefore its cathode might be “poisoned” in time if it was not properly pre-burned and some other methods were not taken care. Those methods are expensive but they ...

I actually woke up today at 6AM, check all settings on my arms (after a few month of not working), demagnetized the needles and was spinning records all mooring. One of the benefits that I got with new phonostage is that the grounding patters for all...

I was thinking about this when posting on the "deathbed audio wisdom" thread, where I said that to accept that there is a distinction between live performances and recordings, make peace with the notion, and derive the greatest pleasure from both bei...

Where those EdgarHorn Titans with the Edgar’s woofers? I ask because I am very concerned about the LF response. The Shelter 901 has phenomenal bass in my view, even now. In fact all my system/room in a way “calibrated” from the bass that Shelte...

Herman, good post, but I think you are knocking into a wrong door. Let take it step by step.
