user="Daniel"] I need dynamic impact. I've been playing in bands for
about 20 years and I yet have to find a stereo and a recording that gives a

Ethan,
Since I published the article “Preamplifiers: keys to mystery” I received many emails from my site visitors asking about Lamm prams and questioning my remarks in comparing what I said to “data form other sources”. Some people disagreed or sur...

Thanks Romy,
I would have thanked you sooner but I had the day OFF of my day job today and had no time to post until now.

I would not be so certain. Mostly the SUV sized bass horns are notoriously bad sounding despite of the assurances of the system owners overwhelmed with so common in audio endowment effect. Not to mention that the Stag...

Ok, none it is time to dive into the practical process of tweeters alignment. Once again I presume that we are taking about monopole tweeters that use AFTER your midranges compression drivers (read my previous post). Some people use term “supertweete...

It is not a secret that my short interaction with Murat and
