It happen that I thought that my old Sony XBR Trinitron TV when sound and I was forced to by a new one. The old TV turner out to be fine and I was stupid to be left with the new one. It is a contemporary LED TV, they say the it is the best. I say...

Hi everyone Guess what! Just had a visit to this system last night. Upfront, the owner - thank you Klaus again - is a very welcoming and friendly fellow. But also remarkably reasonable and decent. Total absence of any need to show off. You rather nee...

[quote user="drdna"]I am sadly missing the living presence in my system, and I thought from your description, that the Melquiades might be a solution [/quote]
I think this requires me to raise my voice as I feel that this presumption is very common ...

[quote user="Paul S"]I will say plainly that I still prefer the sound from relaxed SET and old paper drivers; but this preference is obviated/swamped by "real world listening" to big, complex Music, where, IMO, SETs and old radio drivers loose their ...

Romy,It is indeed an interesting subject; I am instinctively drawn to it due to the fact that the majority of orchestral instruments - the majority of my listening is orchestral/chamber/classical soloists - produce their own sound through the resonan...

Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an extended listening session with the Living Voice Vox Olympian outside of a show environment. Since said listening session took place upon a boat – moreover, a wooden-bodied boat – under what can only be sai...

About importance of impedance curve and current delivery of amplifier i agree you but generally we have some numbers (watt for spl) for average condition.
Live or dead rooms and bass extension are also change the numbers .

[quote user="drdna"]I think it has already been stated. Batteries in audio are inherently of limited utility. It is a tendency of audiophiles to dedicate themselves to a single "silver bullet" instead of building the system based on the particular ne...

[quote user="manisandher"]I don't have a scope, so can't measure the output of my particular unit. [/quote]I do not think that scope is necessary. Pay attention that my Units #1 and #3 have very fine scope outputs that is not related to their sou...

Thanks guys, I have contacted Peter and the JBLGuy, let see what it would fish. I would need to find the Vitavox Mike from UK, but all his formal contact do not works - it looks he closed down his old shop. If somebody knows his new email/phone t...

Hi folks. Who ever listened to Living Voice Vox Olympian Speakers might've liked them as much as I do.
They got a great realism in their projection. Some things are obvious, some even claimed.
Its claimed to use excellent drivers, high quality ...

Interesting. Living in city I did not truly experience rain, snow, wind and any other weather elements as all of it was out there, out of the walls of our city-barricaded live. City life is made to discard the influence of snow. Even if had 2 f...

Well, as usual, we can read all over what one likes or dislikes....each his own of course. But, we can not read why someone did like or did not like something.Same for me of course, but it would be helpful to offer a kind of "priority" (or whatever o...

Yes, sertanly the fantazies about employing ALE bass drivers are not too mature. The selection of tweeter is also not truly relevent and it has more to do with type of framing (radiation pattern) than sound. I think the key is to define the MF dr...
