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 ...

Amy turned out to be a fireplace kitten and she spends a lot of time in our opera room, cooking her feet on fire and filing the room with marvelous purring. We were planning to do major Opera Room remodeling this winter but the resent Hurricane Sandy...

Just thinking and writing out loud, and I'm probably way off track :Sort of analogous to the effect of introducing, at strategic intervals, varying doses of nitrous-oxide to the cycle of an internal combustion motor, in which case the ...

The last night I “locked” Thomas to watch Masha and Bear in
my office and spent some time with playback trying to answers a few questions in
my head.
First, I needed to discover what was the source of the ridicules
double-sound that I exp...

[/quote] Practically all surfaces of horns are sanded and relatively good looking, I was priming today the rest of the horns. I was priming it as was thinking how much I got worse. Formerly I was listening some music at ...

Well, I did some research and consulted with my network people and it looks like it might be unfortunately-expensive project. Still it will not be what I want.
They recommended me to go for what they call NAS (network attach storage). It tuned out t...

I would like to thank you for taking the time to give me a very satisfying answer and explain in detail your views on the whole subject and give a little more insight in to how you do things. Yes I suppose I really knew all along it was coming and w...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Oh, God, what the measurement microphone does at the mouth
of the horn? Is it where you measure your responses? I hope not. Also, even over the bad sound of YouTube
video it is very clear at the example you provided us t...

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- EMI Music Chairman and Chief Executive Alain Levy Friday told an audience at the London Business School that the CD is dead, saying music companies will no longer be a...

Hi Micro Seiki guys!
From a few months I have RX5000 and of course this is great TT and even more if the platter is damped and upgraded with a proper mat.
Now I have offer from a seller of SX8000I. First I...

Oh that forgotten pleasure… I am not spoiled with audio experiments nowadays. Partially because I do not have a lot of drive and have reached a definitive return in my possible audio experiments. Another partial preseason is that I kind of able to pr...

I have to note that I do not like the play at THIS performance but still it does a good video documentary (with incredibly stupid camera work though).

Finally, it has happened. Sound. Two weeks ago I had a couple of mates help me carry up and install the first DSET on its pedestal on the horn stack. It was quite a bit of effort and three were definitely required for the heavy but delicate operat...

Tonight, it might be a very interesting event in Boston. It
will be broadcasted life over local FM and internet. It will be some kind of
concerto for electric bass and orchestra. I do not know the music they will be playing
but I am curios. I do n...

The PS Audio newsletter this month had the following:
"We already have a CD player and transport in the works and lots of ideas floating around about audio systems, video setups and new AC power products…..
Daydream a bit for me if you would and th...

I do not know how interesting it is from technological or sonic perspective but the enthusiasm and perseverance of this guy defiantly deserves applauds. Claude Perrier in his 70 makes home direct heated triodes, how many people like him are out ...

Well, I do not like the ESD debut. It was not well though
and not well executed. The sound that they demonstrated is kind of less relevant.
Sound look like was nothing interesting to say the last, sorry it is too obvious

At the bottom of your RAAL you have Vitavox S2 driver with
no lowpass filter, right? Do you have an alternator between Milq and S2? If you
do, then the alternator has some inductance and acts and a very mild filter. Anyhow.
I disagree with RAAL an...

Nine years ago, when I posted the initial post in this
thread the Aries Cerat was a different company with different products.
As I understand in 2014 they changed a lot and today they have a speaker that I
would like to talk a little: Aries Cera...

It looks like Germans have a new audio show, I did not even
know that they are still going on. That very first lady guy found was
surprisingly pleasant, even though I did not finish to watch it. The guy let
manufacturers talk and explain what they...

I have a lot of to say in response and I would like to make a
video about the subject (less typing) but I am traveling now. It is not that I have anything to say
about that Lavardin amp and it is not the
subject of this thread I feel. The subject ...

Here I would like to pitch an interesting thing. It was revealed to me yesterday that VAI released the 1976 Bolshoi production of Swan Lake with Plisetskaya and Bogatirev. Well it was not Bolshoi season production but the Bolshoi troops do what they ...

Yoshi,
it is well known that Japanese collecting-recording culture is well more developed and very frequently the quality of this CD pressing is way more interesting then we have in States. I quite regularly buy at HMV Japan CDs. Some of them never ...

Nycparamedic,
Thanks for your comment. It was interning as I am very far away from the Linux gaily and have absolutely no idea what kind gravitation forces are in play there. Even though I do understand that advantages to run dedicated operation sys...

Not that physics is my strong suit, but casually watching a physics youtube video this thought crossed my mind.
I wonder if gyroscopes can be used in a turntable to improve it's performance without reverting to ultra high mass system...

Hm.... I generally late to technology innovations in audio and I am OK with it. As many of you know many of "innovations" in audio are very much shooting to a wrong target and in most of the instances with a wrong dun and wrong ammunition. The new o...
