[quote user="Lbjefferies7"]I will be laughing my ass off when I visit the GoodSoundClub website and read about a certain Cat who was finally motivated into tuning the ports on the Mini's specifically to "adjust" Macondo's sound! I am reminded of...

No question the Behringer has a ton of functionality, especially at under $300. The simple RTA is useful on the fly. I think and hope this tool will help with the MiniMe development.
I always wondered why the DEQ sounded so veiled but suspected ...

I have today a local audio guy stopped by in my room and listened my playback. I have almost painful reaction from this listening session and could not wait when it will be over. The playback sounded very unpleasant, I mean so unpleasant that I w...

I kind of never paid too much attention to it a few years back but lately more and more it become to fascinate me. I am taking about the Macondo/Melquiades tandem’s ability to demonstrate distinction between pitches at alarming high level. Sure ...

[/quote] Funny it took 2.5 hours to build the San Audio Kit for 6E5P. The 6E5P is at 150V (a bit low for it but it is OK), loaded with 15K and coupled with 2A3 via a cap. The 6E5P is biased with one 3.6V lithium ba...

The leather suspension IS a spectacular material, I agree. I would say that it is a spectacular material for relatively long throw drivers, the drivers that work in open baffles as so on.
There is a community of people who strong supporters of...

I always advocate that a civilized audio-practicing person must have one playback. I very much did not like the Morons who have multiple duplicating amplifier, speakers and multiple listening rooms. For sure they all produce slightly different fl...
