Romy, I was delighted to see your video monologue, and I look forward to following along your new journey.No speaker can reproduce the reality of a live musical event for various reasons, and all speakers are by their nature a conglomeration of engin...

This is very interesting, Anthony. I do think that absolute polarity has own role to play. Also, do check the DC that might be sent out of your preamps, certainly with Placette and with your 10Y before the transformer. Chas it with disconnected Milq ...

Yes, rowuk, thank you, I have seen it. The FB Bruker forum showed a video a few weeks ago how Mike Framer demonstrated his fetish of opening the box, smelling it and to glorifying it in all imaginable way. It is hard to say what it is. Bernard Haitin...

I just posted at Clark’s site a video of Clark leading an anti-digital
demonstration at the site of Boston Tea party in 1983.

Romy, I’m disappointed to see you confront your own belief just to win a debate. It is not my intention to convince you, but if you, after all these years of research on horn flares, think that a twisted flare rate at the begining might just have som...

My main 6 speakers are modified Edgar horns with 105 dB/ watt sensitivity, and the others are overhead emotive speakers with standard 90 dB/ watt sensitivity. There are two JL self powered f12 subs, and 4 self built subs with a sherbourn five channel...

Paul, my system is back to the operational mode after the EMT tonearm disaster. Actually the biggest disaster was not the lost connection in one of the pins but....the bearing gave up according to my EMT tech (!!!) I must say I've never heard of a to...

About vibration, there is this technology championed by AR9 a few years back and now seems to be everywhere. Opposing woofers, the force cancelling technology says the movement of one driver gets cancelled by the movement of the other and no vibrat...

Today is a first day since we moved to the new house last June
when a local audio guy comes on over to do some listening as I feel that the
room and playback setup is over. It is kind of important to me to have this introvertial
milestone, to know...

Was invited over to Romy's today. Spent two hours going through recordings. First, I hear differently from him. At my age,76, I had a hearing test that showed oversensitivity in the 1000 to 6000 hZ range, and quick drop off above 10,000 Hz.Second, I ...

Last few weeks Amy was playing with BPO, and it was surprisingly
good. Zander’s Boston Philharmonic is very strange orchestra. Sometime Zanders’
interpretations are just “survival” and sometime BPO do sound like semi-professional
orchestra. But so...

A friend sent me a link to an interesting video about Bruckner
on analog. I do not know who the guy is; he is a Bruckner devotee, which is
good. I'm afraid I must disagree with his choices, although I certainly
enthusiastically support his appreci...

I have placed the addition 2 woofer section to my bass tower
and connected everything. It would be lying if I would tell you that I did not listen
it. The result I got is long expected and my tail was trembling. So, here are some

I can't express how much I hate this speaker, not necessary the speaker but rather the company or the people who are behind the company. I do not pretend that I am a Sherlock Homes or Dr. House and that I can read behind the immoderate diagnoses but...

Yep, that looks like very bad. I am sorry folks you get hurt. I still get my two PP2000 of vintage wherever I got them, they are spectacular and I love them greatly. Since I got them to work properly (after the shielding accident) I have no single ...
