Years ago, the two different systems in which I heard RCA 1428s - in a fairly big warehouse and crammed into a basement listening room - used giant RCA multi-cell horns in combination with giant Ubangi bass bins, passive crossovers and vintage WE or ...

I do not know if this should be posted on an other thread but im posting it here only because I was looking for a solution nearer than PP2000 (in my country) so this is the story ; Two days ago I make the 120km that spread Viña del Mar from Santiago ...

I might approach the problem a bit differently. Think "space efficiency" and "space effectiveness."In my travels, I have seen that a lot of Europeans and Asians live in very small spaces. Of course, the Japanese have their futon beds, which they can ...

OK, I decided to stop today to do what I do as it does not feel like me anymore. For a month as I live in here and have the playback up my playback is a source of great pain and I do not like it. I am accustomed that I turn the thing on and USE it. ...

Romy and Paul,Thank you for your help and comments. I decided to move the amp on the floor and on its side so as to be able to monitor it during operation. As it had worked for 10 minutes after replacing the fuse, I was confident nothing sh...

OK, MiniMe now is up and running. It does what it does and I wonder if it can do better then what it does. The LF sections need to have ports fine-tuned but I do not particularly care about bass now. What I do care is MiniMe to have a certain quality...

Since the summer is here and since may playback generates more heat then Pittsburgh Steel plants, and sine my Monitor project end up more or less successful I would like to find a very cool running class AB, SS amplifier with which I would driver my ...

[quote user="Paul S"] In the "thumbnail review" Marc actually says the ML3 has "greater drive" than the ML2.1, and that it has more/better "ability to propel the music's pace forward". I don't know about the ML2.1, but was not aware that the ML...

[quote user="noviygera"]There seems to be a lack of useful feedback on the actual sound quality of these oddball, relatively rare TAD mids. So I think it would be helpful to share some basic observations I gather after listening to them for a couple ...

Hi Jaoco:It's actually rather reassuring that you have 230v in Chile so that if you report positively on an Equi-Tech unit, I will not have to worry that something could be lost in translation as one goes from a 110V unit to their 230v european count...

Yesterday was a truly wonderfully
day. I spent the whole day to play with playback, had a LOT of fun with it found
some unexpectedly good solutions that made me very excited.
The project with IB is

I do not have a lot of equipment that uses vacuum tubes I have a phonostage and power amp that are tube based. The phonostage used 12AX7 that in there from 1999 and I think they will survive me. The power amp use gas tube 0A2, the output triodes 6C33...

Was talking with various audio people about the 6C33C I was amazed that people are so clueless about this tube. The people are so filled with some foolish prejudges and faulty notions about 6C33C that I deseeded to put together a brief “6C33C user ma...

I looked what is around and I did not like whatever I see. The industry music server machines are all crap and mostly made to copy CDs and to play them from semi-intelligent applications. My requirements are very specific and not of the existing mac...

6) Ok, the first half elephant in the room – the dynamics. Believe me or not but PP3000 is more dynamic then PP2000. It was very sensible from the very first note that I heard from the PP3000. I do not know what to say ...

Enduring a quite aggressive schedule to the end of the month to finish the horns, I realize how much work is still ahead. As now both of the horns are built. They are no prepared to be painted yet and second skin is not built. This notion that ¾ laye...
