People who read my site are accustomed that in my section “Audio News” are published the semi-sarcastic articles about different aspects of audio industry. This article however is far from satire and now I would like just to publish one none-invented...

My cat that likes to chew loudspeaker cables. Especially is fond of NordOst flat cables. He is therefore is being kept out of my listening room but should somebody forget to close the door tightly, comes in immediately for cables or to jump on the tu...

Amir:I have not thought much about S/PDIF cable for a while, and I have not thought "seriously" about other digital cable formats at all, since I have no interest in a "digital server", except - maybe - something portable (and cheap). If Acoustic ...

The benefits of treating wire are not truly debatable – put in this way I would not debate it. My interests is not to debate the benefits but rather to be able to confirm that atoms were aliened by cryo treatment. You are right – none of the wire man...

I can only offer a simple solution to this problem.Decide on which row you wish to place digital services. I would also include anything that has a switched mode power supply because of the Y capacitor thing. Assume Row 1 will be used for digital s...

I too have no respect for DIY'ers of any type, and audio is certainly the worst place for such people. I don't identify with or socialize among such people, or even audiophiles in general. The only thing that motivates most of t...

The Western Electric L-9 in Munich was/is an infinite baffle design. The 754B woofers are in a sealed enclosure with a front horn. There is no possibility of cancellation between front wave and back wave of speaker, so I wouldn't call it an "open baf...

What I assumed initially is written on the Nordost page.
"The QKOIL QK1 is a load resonating coil (LRC) which generates a passive electronic field that has a beneficial sonic effect on the AC current."
... as we should do in loudspeaker crossover...

I reticently picked a new DAC and ADC processors. Not that I needed but they were the brand that I for years was trying to test but never had a chance, now I do. The processors use AES/EBU connectors. So, not I need to find reasonably sounding AES/EB...

I have quite a confidence that if you meet and talk with Joseph Goebbels or Lavrenti Beria or with Idi Amin then they all will come along like “nice guys”. When I met and spoke with Valin he seemed “normal” as well. Hey even I appear as “a nice guy” ...

It might be not directly related to the subject of this thread but I do feel that it has quite a good relatively. Are you laughing that your Lamm made his new amplifier with a price tag of $126K? Well, think again. Do you remember as the ...

It was brought to my attention by a fellow member at our audio society meeting today that there have been some postings here regarding my letter to the editor in this month's Absolute Sound. I wont restate the total contents of my letter as they ...

Today’s prices in Hi-Fi do not base upon any other principle then “whatever market bears”. The luck of objective evaluation methods and the completely un-liberated market of Hi-Fi consumers make the “market bearing” principles being completely not ap...

In his RMAF the Federated Mike post some comments about his use of ML3:

I have absolutely no idea what you people are pissed about
the new MIT’s ACC 268 cables. You need to separate in your heads two separate things.
The MIT new cable as a product and the MIT new cable as a concept.
The new MIT cable as a product ...

Gluttons for punishment, Mark and I went to the Newport
Beach audio thing-ee again this year. Generally, I was most struck by how much
lower audio expectations seemed to be, even lower than last year. It seemed
like it’s sunk to the poin...
