The main trouble I've had with any sort of wave guide - including horns - is their audible-to-me signature shaping of the sound, like speach. I just have a hard time shaking my awareness loose of the shaped sound as I try to listen to music thr...

I'ts not that I feel "someone else's would be more informative than Cogent". Rather, even though I know what I heard from the Cogent version, I cannot at this point say I understand how much and what part of what I heard is ...

Romy's recent post on the trials of 12-channel DSET hi-fi made me feel a little better, but his point about maintaining performance is well taken, none the less. One simply must have an aural reference and some rigorous methods for keeping things son...

Denis,
There are objective characters of electric wave and deviation from it sinusoid profile impact sound. Leaving the HF noise aside I would say that there are also some unknown characters of electricity that impact sound. What you report shell no...

I don't know why the Berning topic gets everyone so worked up. No need for another ZOTL screaming contest. Is this not a hobby where we explore many solutions? It is a difficult subject technically. I for sure can not speak about th...

where the pins go through the tube glassThanks for the tips, Romy. But I am not sure from your response if you now get that it IS the glass at the bottom of the tubes themselves that cracked. The cracks did not "run" up/break th...

KM,
