[quote user="doug s."] i have never heard the rel. but, if you want to hear a tubed tuna at its best, pick up a sherwood s3000ll or later, get it serviced, and run it thru one of your mpx decoders. or get one w/a built-in sherwood mpx. this is...

Oatman,
I might understand that you have a desire to keep your REL as authentic as possible (that I feel is not a dignified objective to begin with – this is Tuner not the Fabergé Egg), but if you go not for a look but for the actual result then tra...

One of the ways to drag the REL tuner in the realm of civilized sound is to get rid of any crap that it has after its detector. One of the first things is to replace the 60 years old Germanium diodes with contemporary ultra fast and ultra low capacit...

Well, that sounds like a very good MPX strategy to me; in any case it's what I'd do, if I were in your shoes...I have not talked to Mike Z. yet, but I will since I have a few questions for him about local reception strategies and front end options.&n...

Does the added bandwidth mean you have a MPX strategy?That should be the last hurdle for the REL. That front end is the bomb!Best regards,Paul S...

[quote user="op.9"] Of course. I find when I discover a new 'it' - I then find/feel it all over the place. [/quote] Yep, it works like some kind of cipher, if you once get the keys, then it is no problem to read the “code” [quote user="op.9"] I'll ha...

Below is the performance of my favorite Alfred Schnittke’s peace - the “Gogol Suit”. It is played by “off the wall” Scherzo Quartet http://www.scherzo.ch/Frame_Biography_E.htm …and the adaptation and the play itself are very good. Unfortunately the s...

When we were chasing this same (or very similar...) shadow and spinning the same (or very similar...) wheels a while back, I suggested DSP EQ for this, and sane people responded with thoughtful ideas on the subject. The better RELs have always been ...

Hello All;Any idea where I can get an antenna connection for an REL tuner. It appears to be a clear plastic connector with holes in one end and set screws to secure the strands of a 300 ohm dipole antenna with another end that plugs into the back of ...

… and of cause I do not listen FM in mono. I drive REL into Rohde & Schwarz external decoder. The Schwarz has to inputs for composite signal and UFH routers that allow driving the decoder from multiple tuners – very very convenient. The Cat ...

Interning that Heifetz has that same “ice maiden” status, primary because he did not express any facial or body emotionalism while he was plying. Ms. Mullova is the same she appears almost like “detached” and just “renders the notes”. It is hard to m...

I tried to do a google image search, but nothing appeared, maybe Romy will share.I got to pondering what benefit having the surface textured may have. It seems the texture of sharkskin for example can reduce the surface suction.From the interweb:"A s...

hi romy,i have never heard the rel. but, if you want to hear a tubed tuna at its best, pick up a sherwood s3000ll or later, get it serviced, and run it thru one of your mpx decoders. or get one w/a built-in sherwood mpx. this is tube sound as good...
|

[quote user="doug s."] if you have good reception in your area, the sherwood will be fine. but the sound is where these things excel, really. as they are so dirt-cheap, and even pretty-cheap when completely refurb'd, you owe it to yourself to a...

I do not use flac , i just use AIFF.My friend configured voyage mpd 0.9.5 with ronalde (http://lacocina.nl/) bit-perfect script.Alix 2d2 with voyage mpd sounds not bad before break-in and after break-in i will report about the sound.I guess even go...

It has been a while since I heard any Velodyne subs. Do they change models annually, like everyone else? Whatever; they have been around for a long time, and I have heard many of them over the years, including several of the Stereophile Recommended...

[quote user="decoud"]Romy, I imagine it is irrelevant but have you found a difference between lower and higher voltage versions of the Electocube 950 series in the coupling capacitor position in the full range Melq? I ask because a stock of 1000V has...

I think what actually happens it that the dielectric, when it gets most fully discharged, simply takes some time again to get 'FULLY' recharged. The perode inbetween will make the loss angle (or power factor) become a lot worse. This means the caps' ...

Yes, that WAS a common connector but this won't help you now. Radio Shack sold those as recently as ten years ago.Since the female side of the connectors has spring terminals there is some variability permitted in the diameter of the male contacts. I...

It seems like lots of folks use parts to try to tune/voice their systems, and the V-Caps are just another option, IMO. No matter what people think of new parts as they break them in, they will eventually tire of the overall sound from...

We will be happy to share our music with all GSC members who would be
willing to try the Truthful Recording Technology (calibration v2.0)
sound on their systems. All we want in exchange is to get as much
feedback as possible. It would be great ...
