I had my friend visited (he is on video in red) and he asked to play his music to evaluate coloration. His verdict was - he doesn't hear horns!He never used horns because of coloration and was very skeptical about my project, but he said that it is f...

I suspect you were both right.We each have our own priorities, but I did find a couple of his youtube videos to be interesting, as far as one can tell anything useful from compressed video.Not the point though really.I'm more interested in this idea ...

Yes, I'm new to horns...I have only my ears...with other needed skills I have people around who help me and thank you for your help also.If you read SoundEx, then I don't need to post here.I'll be happy for any comments on my pages.Thank you,Mura...

[quote user="steverino"]But the prospective Magico owner needs to know whether the Magicos reproduce the real Taiko drum closely enough to scare and demoralize all the JDs in the neighborhood. It's like those recorded barking dogs that homeowners use...

While the pure power units are the best I’ve heard at removing ac grunge, they are still not 100% effective.
Last night my listening and video session was unbelievable. We had about a foot of very light soft snow during the day.
As soon as ...

[quote user="Serge"]Silbatone used a WE horn to play in mono and a pair of their own horn cabinets for 2-channel.The very cinema sound reinforcement looking horn was, I was told, a 16B. I will post some comments about the sound a bit later. [/quote]T...

[quote user="martinshorn"] And far ahead of the
Vox Olympian. Thats the big surprise. [/quote] Josh, I just want to make
an attempt to methodologically debug your thought proses. You found that ESD is
far ahead of the Vox Olympian. It means there ...

[quote user="Paul S"] I would like to hear something more rigorous and complex than "the usual" music the DIYers use to "prove" a design/system.[/quote]Was my thought too--"a girl with a banjo" audiopedophile(tm) crap.[quote user="Paul S"]Unusual TT!...

Another hobby that I'm involved with is saltwater aquariums. People used to enter the hobby as children when they would get their first 10 gallon aquarium as gift or hand me down. Now kids would rather play video games then actually mess with a hobby...

Speaking as a local audio guy... yeah the sound was poor but who knows?... whether it was the dvd?... the electronics?... the day? Plus it was Room #2, so...My policy, perhaps mistaken, in such a situation, is to enjoy the music.As to the OPPO, I'd l...

[quote user="anthony"]Have put all my DHT's on the curve tracer to see if pairs can be matched for preamp duties. [/quote] It was very interesting to read about all of it. If you have a socket for YO186 then you can accommodate all 4V tubes and I si...

Hans Vonk is also my favorite... It was Slatkin that built up the St Louis Symphony orchestra,,and passed the batton on to Vonk when he left,, VONK and the STL.,,,did a special concert for PBS TV of Carmina Burana,,,The chorus and soloists really ha...

I actually preferred this video to most of the "reviews" I've read, for years; it is what it is. Not sure, but I think maybe most of the problems of that system have to do with LF, apart - of course - from the fact that something like this will alwa...

The idea of high quality delay makes me wonder if the delay effectively increases the virtual length of the room - allowing longer wavelengths before the room Schroeder frequency is reached. This would be a "softer" bass without the room compression....

When thinking about how to clean records -- even brand new records -- it may be instructive to remember how records are physically manufactured. This is a nice video that reviews the process:https://youtu.be/awmA-z6EgrE...

My understanding of Romy's point is that in addition to the designer's perception of what sound shall be, and marketing whore's mischief, we consumers share some of the burden of responsibility for the buying choices presented to us.

A few local audio guys temporarily donated to me some gear that completely out of blue made me to have my Opera Room operational. I have a big screen, some kind of a good projector, in few days I will have a good player. The sound is the Altec 19 and...

We in Boston are hit this weekend with a mean Nor'easter storm with wind, rain and show. They promises a feet or so and it is juts October…. I am having great time, secluding myself in my video room, lighting up fireplace, smoking my Cohiba, playing ...

Indeed, it was. I never thought that visiting my local friends 2 weeks ago would open in me at Pandora box for acute audio obsession. For the last 2 weeks my brain operates in Romy the Cat version 20 years ago, when I was doing audio full-time. Some...

Thank you for this video! I will happily figure out the connections for myself now, and I really look forward to finishing my current project so I can get to this "reverb" injection. Regarding the Squirrel Singularity, I hope you mean what I think yo...
