I wrote a few weeks ago a typically-pissed article about hypocrisy and lie in audio and how you, the fools, allow it exists in audio, despite that we would hardly permit it to exist in our “out of audio live”. I did not posted this article yet but an...

I have looked at the Feastrex website. The picture you show is of one of their permanent magnet drivers. This uses their Naturflux magnetic circuit. Mr Akiyama's quote also refers to one of these permanent magnet drivers so you shouldn't be atta...

[quote user="coops"]Romy Hi sorry to have wandered off topic, I am listening at the moment to an MSB Platinum Dac III, hoiping to get the lavry back for comparison, I believe the MSB is multi bit based on a ladder resistor , with 4 24 bit DAc m...

Realty or Truth could not be understood or “processed” as is by a man. Realty can be only understood as a reflection through a prism of a person's mind – or the through the prism of perception. Truth can't realy be known, it could be just embrac...

...But they are poorly implemented. Something to do with the 24/192 conversion. AFAIK nowadays most recordings are done 24/96, but it will eventually go up when higher resolution devices becomes the standard (I think about Prism, but theres more).Out...

Hi guys, I am considering of a Fireware Interface to match with my Prism sound da2. To make full use of the machine I will expect it to has the digital / rca output as well as the word input port. And the option I can find by the moment is the weiss ...

[quote user="Telstar"] If you are not using the Lynx DAC, how good it is really does not matter. Isolation from computer noise matters most IMO. While the Lynx is very good, I still believe you can get slightly better using a firewire interface as di...

[quote user="jtavan"]It looks like you're looking at the right brands for ADC. It seems likely to me that getting proper A/D conversion is as hard as or harder than getting proper D/A conversion. I'm currently shopping for a good A/D converter for a ...

The initials post was the body of email that Kostas sent to me and considering it’s format he presumed that I will me post it on my site. So, I did it (with his permission). I ran all those tracks once (some of them just a few seconds) and below is v...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]PP does inject very positive qualities to sound and it is in part might
be because it addresses some of intricate electric problems but we, or at least
I, do not know it with certainly. The claims that PP manufacturers ma...

Dan,
I do not know were you’re going with “next step”, but I do see that some people treat interaction at this site as another swamp of DIY movement. This endless DIY paranoia when people pursuit abstract BS objectives and fulfill bogus frustrations...

Well, I do not think that I would be able to recode it to CD witch appropriate level of quality but it would be interesting to be able to load it to hard drive and to see if FM level sound still might survive on HD. Also I would be able to writhe a f...

[quote user="Mark Donahue"]Mani, Yes, the files were created using the HDCD Model 1 AD converter and you will actually get improved audio if your DA converter properly decodes the HDCD (Even at 88.2 kHz /24 bit!) There is information about the filter...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Some of you who follow my site know about the coming Macondo 7th Channel. The inventor of the concept is Russian audioalogist. Considering a great novelty and a lot of controversy in the subject I would be interested to sit...

It is interesting: in NY’s concert I picked the NPoR’s recording of Pathetique issued by DELOS DE-3379. I never seen this CD anywhere (it is too new – 2007 February) and it is not even listed in Delos catalog. If you were fool enough to miss the NPoR...

Oh I was thinking about FLAC, such as the ones from Linn Records, not raw WAVE files.
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Might be the new Berkley DAC would do it for you.http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=6382[/quote]Not really: it is ...

OK, it now looks like my dive in the world of PC is over and I pretty much know where I am staying. A well of so ago I was completely ignorant about the subject but now I could at least to understand what the common buzz-worlds means and able to ask ...

Everything is possible. Although I believe that my personal experiences are universal experience and common to all people but I hope you not truly believe that I subscribe this is my own statement. Perception is reality and we certainly understan...

If you one of those who feel that playback make difference then I do not think that better playing of Bruckner music would require any different playback efforts than an y other better playback. Still, practicing “better playback” and loving t...

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...

DorinD, I would like you to understand
my response in a proper context. I did not mean to slur the audio result you
are getting by equating it with $200 boom box. Well, I did but it is not
the insult and from certain perspective the result I am ge...

A woman I met last weekend asked me a question: “What you do for own pleasure, Romy?” In response I ran with her my standard “talk to women” Feline Psychiatrist scenario but with all seriousness - the question how to name what I do is not so simp...
