who is selling amp based on $20 IC Circuit for $2.5k wchich was called in some circles "a rip-off" ???? I think that above speakers represent exactly the same pricing structure like your products. (If you're not that guy though I'm soo sorry;)...

Yep, the Toscanini performance was a big surprise to me as well. Interestingly he does not play it as I would like Buckner generally, it is too “artistically expressive”, good only for Rimsky-Korsakov or Ravel but… still the way how Toscanini’s orche...

Sounds like he needs someone to build him a decent cabinet....

Is Yoshi's box ported or sealed? If it's ported.. of course he's going to be listening to more.. a lot more.. of the box... everything below.. 60hz? is box music.if it's not ported then this is a more interesting discussion. when I first read romy's ...

What your little G.I.P Laboratry does is absolutely irrelevant. They feed already pre-buttered customers and their moves are not important. Shindo and Cogent do the electromagnets for years but they doe little events with no influence. In high-audio ...

[quote user="yoshi"]I don't know much about the US situation, but here's some realistic estimate to maintain such business in Tokyo. Of course it depends very much on the size and location of the space, but let's assume it's in downtown Tokyo (I...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I keep bugging Yoshi, he is in Japan now, to bring me a set of 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 by Takashi Asahina with Tokyo SO from 90s it should be very interesting… The damn Japanese have quite a price tag on the Asahina’s Buckner…&...

Bud, you sure make a case for your process, all right. And the problems I have noted grew through the hot afternoon, eg, the power was certainly AFU.Of course I am curious, and your very intelligent discourse about hypnotizes me.At this po...

Unfortunately, we also have the lists of "Audiophile recommended CDs" on every audio related publications in Japan. I refer to them as something I should avoid.Yoshi...

[quote user="yoshi"]I do admitt that I have a tendancy to be attracted monochromic works in general, rather than colorful extarvaganza, both in music and visual. The colors, even strong colors, when balanced and co-ordinated under a specific int...

beside the title, "Apeal to the Great Spirit", the stature itself reminds me of Sibelius 5th.[/quote]Yoshi, is any specific performance or specific vintage of the Sibelius 5th brought you to this realization?...

[quote user="yoshi"] This is how I took Jonathan's post. He (Janathan) is mocking you (Romy) by presenting a hypothetical situation assuming your ego would be hurt in that situation and get pissed the same way some audio people react hysterical...

[quote user="yoshi"]Well, my wording may not be right. What I meant by "integrity of harmonics" is more like "integrity of space where harmonics are presented", which I do not hear in CD/LPs.[/quote]
What "live" analog FM does with space is ab...

I spoke this morning with Yoshi and he made a phenomenal comment. He was complaining something about his bass. He uses a pair of big 15’ JBL in a box with an active second order crossover. So, when I asked him to describe what he feels is wrong Yoshi...

[quote user="yoshi"] Last night, I got an oppotunity to hear what Romy's been screaming about the quality of FM broadcast. Yes, it is in an "insulting" level. The biggest surprise was the harmonic integrity live-broadcasts presents us.&nb...

Respect, Yoshi. I'll follow your further adventures with interest.I visit this site in the hope to learn, too. With regard to horns (and audio in general), I have much to learn indeed and Romy and other posters here are obviously ahead of me on the l...

I've been following the thread with interest. I just checked Japanese HMV and Amazon. Anton Nanut search in HMV brings no result. Zilch! The name is not even included in their very comprehensive conductor search. There's...

The box is about 5 cu/ft apperiodic with 3 x Scan Speak vent on the rear panel. Damped with cotton blanket (filling 60% of inside) and braced rather well. The driver is JBL 2220 crossed at 80Hz with 12db slope. All other channels ar...

[quote user="yoshi"] One guy reports the comparison between SHM-CD and CD version of Klieber's Beethoven 5th and says what they did is just to increase the volume level so that it feels like you hear more details, but because of that, the orchestral ...

The picture sure does looks like 2482 and it comes with Phenolic disphram (I have a pair though never used), but it's more like a mid-low driver. JBL's recommendation is 300~6k.http://www.jblpro.com/pub/obsolete/2482.pdfYoshi...

Romy's prediction of field-coil speakers as the next move for the industry may already have started in small segment in Japanese market. There's Feastrex and Shindo, then G.I.P Laboratry who specializes in W.E. clones and seems to be gaining a ...

It's also coming out from Warner/France. About $80 at Japanese HMV. The release date in Japan is 04/30/2008.http://www.hmv.co.jp/news/article/804090072Yoshi...

Although there's no doubt "The Garden of Earthly Delights" is a historical master piece, I always felt there's something abnormal about it. Not because some modern psycologist read schizophrenic tendancy from the right panel. Mine comes from doll l...

I'm wondering why people do not mention Bruckner 4th, while 5,7,8, and 9 were talked about here and there. I really love the 4th symphony. My most favorite is Wand's last recording with NDR. The one with Berlin Phil is great too. As an orchestra ...

You have to have guts (or stupidity) to introduce new FM tuners nowadays but as you understand this fact is very welcomes at my site. So, it comes: http://47labs.co.jp/4730.htmlI have no idea what it is and what is inside. Yoshi told me that FM was ...
