"I was looking for higher purpose of audio." Yes, and that would be music. But audio, as you seem to be saying, can be enjoyed on its own as a hobby, a hobby I might add much superior to coin collecting, for instance.All I meant by my quoted sta...

Yes indeed. The company was originally Nova Physics and appears to have been sold on to Sam Laufer, a lawyer by profession originally who brought in Mark Porzilli of Melos and Pipedreams fame. I do not know if this company actually manufactures or se...

I like to stress a point that the mammals that write thier doodles for audio publication are not juts ignorant fools but also the cheap, low class, falseificators. No wonder that the audio manufacturing companies do employ the so-called reviewers as ...

Hello Haralanov,It is hard to talk about sound, and define points: this is why the post is so long.Most systems I have lisitened to that measure a flat response have exagerated high frequencies and usually the midbass is a little shy, this might be ...

I think this post need to have an epigrapher:
“We knew what we wanted to hear, and so we developped, and developped, and developped... In hundreds of small and bigger steps. Over thirty years. Till we were "there" where we always wanted ...

Thanks, Roman... I strangely (?!?) feel me like a schoolboy at his first primary schoolday... virtually ALL my (limited) audio knowledge, vanished... and I'm dealing with brand-new problems, like a crossover with fixed slopes and cut-off frequencies ...

Romy, You are absolutely right, saying "audiophile" which is not capable to hear any criticizm about his system, is very far from inderstanding what the music is. As an amator painter, a joined (long ago) to a group of amators like me, gath...

The history of stereophonic sound

... to better express myself, with every needed nuance... Roman: I never wrote I'm able to time-align my speakers, I only told you I quite recently began "moving" drivers and horns as I never did in the past few years, NOT simply looking for a practi...

[quote user="steverino"]My point is not that separation per se must always be maintained but that the character of the music determines the degree of optimum separation or co-location. For example the first violins are grouped together for a reason s...

A few weeks ago Amphissa sent me a collection of recordings of Myaskovsky. I knew Myaskovsky, head his Sixth Symphon, “something else” and his cello concerto but to have a pile of selected CDs by a great aficionado of the Myaskovsky's music really he...

I would agree that the Lowther is not hard to beat but the question is where and in whose mind does this competition exist? Is the Lowther, Manger, or other full range single driver in competition with different multi-driver approaches, other single ...

Here is an article by Leonard Norwitz that I think some of you might find motivating. I do not know Mr. Norwitz but it sounds like dinked too mach Qvortrup’s coca-cola. Anyhow, although I do not agree with some (sometimes many) of the Mr. Norwitz’s c...

Hello!The moronic idea that bad + bad can become good just drove me to playing a hybrid-SACD with the Windows Media Player. First I thought I was right, but then the non-moronic regions of my brain told me this can´t come from the PCM layer...

Amir, what you have written is not a philosophy, it is not a path that guides decisions, not a document what gives others insight into what music does to you and why. I have been following your posting, and to be honest, it sounds more like an audio...
