My favorite were the Classic Audio speakers. I know they have many faults, but the Fostex 500II tweeter was singing nicely. ...

RomyI hope to transfer my idea with my bad english :)I should to say that my view is based on my personal experience and i have no stress on my views.I share my views but for knowing more not for disagree other views because i think this discussion i...

"whatever that means" is that most rooms at a trade show are not good. You know this Rommy, I've seen you write it in past posts. I like that Silbatone was trying to demonstrate to the "Wilson Audio" crowd that vintage horns can surpass the latest mu...

Amir,
Frankly speaking most of
you thinking about audio that you expressed at this site is just an evidence of
audio aimlessness, and to a degree I feel that you are very much a victim of
the co...

This is kind of shit that I hate. I went to AA and read a person said:
“Don't miss the CAR room... That would be Classic Audio Reproduction. But that's only if they are showing the same basic design as last year, which uses modified JBL drive...

[quote user="de charlus"]As for Hi-Fi, a few recommendations would be; Walrus Audio, Riverside Hi-Fi, The Listening Rooms, Audio Lounge and Classic Hi-Fi in Finsbury Park for all things valve, horn and analogue.[/quote] Hm, I have absolutely no inter...

If time (Endo-san and mine...) will allow, I should also visit Endo Labs of ALE fame... sure I'll have a listen to a 4 ways system in Tokyo area with bass driver and concrete horn.Re. "tilted high frequencies"... no, Roman, it's not me experiencing s...

Well, maybe a little cussing first to set the tone. The older SPU's are now well sought after, many will end up in collections at now over inflated prices probably in the Far-East where they are worshipped. I've heard a few older SPU's and even those...

I really don't get out much any more, just happened to run across this while looking for high-powered SETs:http://www.avguide.com/news/2008/01/23/ces-2008-dick-olsher-investigates-tube-gear-at-ces/4/Look at text down below the Classic Audio speaker p...

With the proms one has to simply select judiciously, something of which you're more than capable. It is billed as a celebration of popular classics, but within the tourist stuff can be found gems. In Edinburgh they take greater advantage of the wonde...

Hi Romy:as I don't consider the thread as emptied, yet, I'd wish to add some thoughts after more days of listening to my system.I re-read an half-page chapter in French from Jean Hiraga's "Les Hautparleur" essay, concerning time-alignement and p...

His is my picked for 3 things that I would like to be done in audio. They are without any particular order of importance. 1) I would like industry to develop a coordinate system according to which Sound would be objectively evaluated and all sound ef...

[quote user="SearcherOfBetterSound"]Why is Acoustic Solid so interesting to me? Well, it should be to most when you read stuff like a $1,600 Black Wood Classic model can beat out a $5,500 Super Scoutmaster model from VPI, and a $4,000 ...

[quote user="rowuk"]In live music, we have intermodulation. Two trumpets or a trumpet and oboe playing together create sum and difference tones that change depending on pitch interval for instance. For music in major keys, this intermodulation is add...

I agree the "period" closing needs more words, Roman.The P.A. horns/drivers were mounted in stadiums, convention centers, maxonic halls, cinemas, theaters, everywhere was needed a broad music or speech dispersion, trouble free operation and high S.P....

[quote user="Paul S"] It is stupid, of course, but still we persist in comparing "live" and "reproduced" sound. But NO ONE EVER confuses video with life… [/quote] I disagree with this statement. I would argue that it “in a way” reversed. I said “in ...

I could not agree more. Above a certain price point, another thing that should be standard procedure is what Lamm has been doing since day one; and that is to establish a file for each component made, recording whenever possible, its history of owne...

some chaotic ideas here:
- emho there´s not an absolute reference for what a "perfect sound of music" should be:every concert hall has its own sound, its own reverberant environmentevery seat in the hall has its own soundthe instruments al...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Also do not forget that the phonostage that you built has very lash and very polite sound. [/quote]I would like to stress the politeness and lushness of 834PT-AIR phonocorrector. This characteristic of this phonostage s...

Hi Romy and thanks a lot for the always interesting topics and discussions going on... I'm quite new to DPoLS and consider the approach of "obtaining sound in a room" more than "speakers positioning" - too often to WAF fullfillment and aesthetics, th...

Hi Romy, I recently heard the smallest Cessaro and while I felt that the bass was not adequate for long term satisfaction it was also not a total disaster. From the midbass on up; however, the speaker is simply superb and one of the very best h...

It is interesting, I kind of feel that I do not mind to get some subscription of some kind audio publication, would it be mail deliverer of internet delivered. I do not subscribe anything for a number of years sometime I do buy a magazine juts fo...

Recently, I was fortunate enough to have an extended listening session with the Living Voice Vox Olympian outside of a show environment. Since said listening session took place upon a boat – moreover, a wooden-bodied boat – under what can only be sai...
