The “Enjoy His Music” published the old celebrated by many DIYers Herb Reichert’s article about his 300B amp ideas.

I read it before but reading it now, after a few years again...

Thank you Gentlemen, "I would offer some of my commentary of the subject. The very first thing you need to find out if your audio anti-Brucknerism has natural or audio nature."Of course any input you can offer will be gladly considered. Yes, of ...

I have some “issues” with the 176.4kHz idea, particularly knowing the most of the RR recordings were not recorded in 176.4kHz. I am glad that they did not go for X48K format but stuck with X44 (I more like the Linn’s 88.2KHz “Studio Masters” idea). S...

People, keep asking me about the sound of Melquíades and I feel strange as I really can’t not explain how it sounds. It does not make any sense as I initiated this thread with the objective to explain or at least to inform about the Melquíades’ sound...

Well, when we are talking about Cogent we need clearly differentiate two things: the Cogent’s drivers and the Cogent’s installation. The problem is that since Cogent’s drivers are something so called “compression drivers” then their performance might...

But I wouldn't rule out playing rock on a system that offer fidelity to the music in classical repertory. However, back to the reproduction "system".The expression Romy used of "musical content" is interesting. I use the expression musical ...

Recently I tested the waters of computer audio. I've been using a Sony SCD-1 transport / Museatex Bidat DAC combo for digital playback. It has been a source of enjoyment for years. My goals for trying network-based music files were:- reduce physic...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Perhabs, wlowes. Might I ask you: when you refer to “sonic improvements”, “brought more life to the music”, deep quiet background and etc then what do you mean? What I am trying to say is that your rational might be logica...

[quote user="haralanov"] It is certainly very very important, but how many systems you have listened where you can not be able to recognize the HFs as disconnected part of the sound? I just wanted to ask if you have ever heard a system, where the...

[quote user="danvprod"]My objective is to create a system that is able to emotionally re-create music in a powerful and realistic way. My greatest memories are playing in orchestras and sitting in the middle of the violin section with a hundred o...

[quote user="Stitch"] Sound was really lifelike, true in tone, for 1000 visitors in a cinema with a 2W amplifier....of course it can't be compared in rooms for one owner with pinpoint imaging, but it was a good performance. A lot of listeners scratch...

OK, I did invert the results and response to "Parker" influences. Obviously, if the "influences" were better in the first place, more winemakers would be trying to make better (ideally, singular) wine, which we might regard as a better situation in ...

Dear drdna,I agree with you, my explanation was a little audio reviewerish! If you noticed in my first post I just mentioned Sussarro being different to other Moving coils of my experience. To me it has advantage of high compliance cartridges in conv...

In my experience, for many people, "lyricism" is a key when introduced to new music, no matter what the gene is. In that respect, I'd say 3rd movement of 8th.OTOH, audio people can easily be impressed by dynamic presentation, especially through the ...

I got the May 2018 issue of Stereophile despite my subscription lapsed. This month Jason Serinus re-announces the "Hi-Res" LG V30 smartphone that answers the burning question, What's Next? Regardless of how this device treats music, it appears to m...

romyi agree that to reproduct music as "accurate" as possible, phisically speaking, there are probably not many ways. and most of the audio industry, they really are not following the right approach, as their goals are really others, main...

The reader who read my comments above about Lamm’s new ML3 amplifiers might have wrong impression where I’m coming from. I have a general tendency to be skeptical (because the experiences) when I exposed to audio but in case of ML3 there is much deep...

And that's an optimistic estimation. I know well for my profession. It's possible that the 10% using their brains don't do audio, so within this activity the ratio would be even worse.I've been an ignorant moron for audio matters many years. But fort...

I have a tradition of exchanging music with people in the end of the year. This morning I made some “selected” CD-copies to a local guy and among them I recorded my favorite performance of Tchaikovsky violin concerto by Tossy Spivakovsky. This kind o...

Hello Romy,Thanks for your reply. I'm also of your age and I do agree that these other 'esoteric' subjects first rose up strongly when I was in my teens. However, since then I've realised those things have real value in terms of imagining...

I watched this. At first they are a bunch of pompous arrogant guys sitting around flatly bored, spouting asinine opinions mostly to hear themselves talk.Then a funny thing happens. About two thirds of the way through, they actually play a recor...

A year or so ago (I do not know exactly when it started as I but audio publication irregularly) I have see that Wilson Audio begin to advertise their new loudspeakers as the design inspired by David Wilson’s revelation after he was sitting at...

Well i've been using this fine piece of equipment now for nearly 2 years with total satisfaction. My class D Nuforce SE V3 amps love the clean clear power. As i use my PP2000 for my whole system so does all other components in the audio chain. For th...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I bought a few Linn Records own recordings of Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra, Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Dunedin Consort. They pushed them as “Studio Master” but they are WMA files – means the re-rendered compress...

Hello, would it be possible for us to see the diagrams and schematics behind the Zarathustra II in the same spirit as the Melquiades was conceived, noting that the best of ideas are formed with the purest of sentiments?[quote]It is Dima’s and my stro...

Paul McGowan, the head of PS Audio send his newsletter with his comments about SACD. The comments are childish and in many way absolutely ignorant. I hate what the industry professionals twist the facts and go into pure falsification in order to ...

Joe, I think I would battle it.
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...

This subject of digital crossovers became quite popular during last few years and many audio-people give up and go for a simplicity and painlessness of digital crossovering. There is an army of people out there who would swear by a complete transpare...
