Guy,
I do not know. In my past I made an adapter to my Micro motor to play 78s and used contemporary 78 cartridge and 282 arm and off the shelf phonocorector. I would not call this setup as something that was good but it gave me some opportuni...

It six month as Lamm released his LL1 preamp but I do not see any “jitter” about the sound of the unit. Even the Lamms’ leash-driven, in-house bitches from Soundstage do not publish any “review”. I did not see even any talk online about LL1. This is ...

your post has not merit sir...some of the most stupid people that have the ability to play musical instrument have no clueon how music sounds in an audience(fact) I know several people here in the chicagoland area that play for CSO they are cluelessa...

and the forum which has already perfectly developed herd behaviour is most appropriate one. Yeah, I worded the post in a wrong way (as usual) If you're in a position which allows you to have intimate experience with most Mass TT's on market via X...

I mean that you put the most of the people hanging around public sites into the same bag. I think there are several different categories:- The ones that have limited exposure to music and audio, they really don't care about music, and their exig...

I am in minor scale mode toady and play mostly chamber music and only records. FM broadcasts with all their majesty are hardly objective tool to assess what doing on with audio. So, I play records and tapes. Besides everything I am trying to figu...

I wonder how did you realize that you were clueless and started to ask more from your system and why. Many people who start into this hobby because they're mainly music lovers and not gear freaks, don't use to get into audiophilia and never mind abou...

Ming,
what you say is not exactly accurate. I have MANY desiccations about it with number Goto users in past and if I am not mistaken then even some kind GOTO official from past event argued this point with me. He insisted that Goto require 4...

I do not exactly understand what you are proposing at DiyAudio site. I have generally an attitude against dipole radiation, and particularly in bass. There is a common believe among audio people that dipole bass has advances, there was a lot of said ...

After hearing what a well designed FM station recording setup could deliver I became a believer. The question was what would be the cost involved to implement a good setup. After doing some research on the cost of Romy's components to capture fm br...

What is interesting, and this is not Wheel-Fi problem but
much wider problem, that we in audio still are clueless how to present speakers.
The video above is fine but it is only fine in very confined zone of the Wheel-Fi
audio interests. As the re...

Actually I think I was clueless until a second part of 90s, perhaps the late 90s. You know it is kind of strange: I did audio kind of all my life but I never knew, cared and was a part of the high-end hobby. All those valleys and summits of audiophil...

It is interesting to recall how audio started in my life. Somebody asked and I was puling out from my memories some unconnected fragments was really enjoying to recall those times…
I do not relay remember how old I was. I was then probably 10, as a...

I receive an email form a visitor of my site with a “news” and was really laughing! Yes! I hate to know everything but proposed by me “The Rules of the Audio Morality Propagation” do work like a Swish watch!

This is very complex and superbly important concept and with this I have pissed a lot of people in audio. So, while you participate in evaluation of an audio element DO NOT recognized the sonic benefits of this element in it’s comparing to other simi...

The Purepower state at their site that efficiency of the unit is 89-92% depending on load. I presume that they meant the power factor correction that need to be taking to the consideration. In my case my two 6-ch Melquiades run from two new PP2000. M...

Let it be known that I am nearly clueless when it comes to electronics. Building speakers, racks, pianos, or just about anything mechanical is no problem for me to build myself and, unlike Romy, it is usually pleasant for me for various reasons....

There are no relays in the ML2 that might produce the “violent switch-on pulse… which threatens to blow your speaker”. What you have is a dead V2 tube. When 6C33C dies then it begging to produce the erratic pings. Juts replace the tube and you should...

I am categorical but very much not phanatical, it is interesting that you brought phanatisizm in context of Sakuma discussion. I am categorical in the facts about the sound that Sakuma demonstrated, and allegedly continue demonstrate via his “phanati...

Alex, contrary to the numerous speculation that many people more or less reasonably spread about the subject, my experience indicates that there are no such a things as “preferable crossover frequencies". The chosen optimum crossover frequencies are...
