Jarek, please re-read my previous post, also Romy's recent post on this subject, carefully. I'm afraid you are in for it once you start effing with power cords, for all the reasons we've listed. Here in the US we have a company that sells used cord...

Hello,I just logged myself in so first of all: Hi Everybody ;)Few days ago I aquired a pair of very interesting 3way horn speakers which seem, as I imagine, to ba an ambitious DIY project from the past. These are basically the Altec Vott A7 replicas ...

It is very interesting. A few days ago my local other friend intent to visit me and he asked me if I still do audio. That was a superb loaded question and I have been thinking about it for a while. From a prospective a regular Stereophile readin...

[quote user="Stitch"]In Germany are a few analog groups, some build their turntable with a piece of wood and a knife and think it is great, some prefer old Linn, Garrads, Thorens as the only, real solution to listen to and others refuse to listen to ...

N-set, I've never tried to make a "silver path". I have thought about Ag arm wire but I have not tried it. My cartridge coil and tonearm both use "high-purity" Cu wire, and the Cu arm wire feeds directly to the Ag wound SUT, which I use not because...

Please do not get the idea that I ever "ruled out" active pre-amps or came to the TAP through some sort of object worship. I really couldn't care less about how the job gets done. Active is fine, as long as the results are there...

First, I'm impressed someone managed to create a website of substance on such a vapid topic as high end audio..Last night I saw the seattle symphony orchestra do berlioz damnation of faust. I was late because I stupidly didn't look at the ticket and...

Is there a pill for that too? Seriously, it would be very interesting to hear what solution you come up with because I have converted from listening music solo to a small number of audience (friends). So much that I listen by myself much less oft...

Scooter, I know what you ask. I wish I have a cleared time to deal with audio. Unfortunately since my move I am engaged into a chain of events that has nothing to do with audio and that I do not particularly enjoy, but I need to do it now. This stupi...

Hm. It was not good that Outside was gone. I hate AA. Besides the worthless audio context I wish that the human dirt that runs AA site died very slowly and from very painful illness. However I liked the Outside and I frequently visited it. It is not...

After 4 days of suiting in boxes in my listening room today is my day off and I decided to dedicate it to play with the new Pure Power 3000+.
I desired to use just records and connected all amps, preamps and phonostage to ol...

Last couple days I was playing with my new tape looped Placette, riming Pacific from Tape Rec output. How little a Moron need to be happy!!! Even I still have some technical issuers that I need to resolve using Pacific in and out of the tape loop but...

I think for a start there are so many different ways of getting a sound that is acceptable to the listener it pays not to be too dogmatic.I am in the early days of developing my system with speakers from 4 different manufacturers running in active an...

I tried the ML2s via their 16 Ohm taps, even though my speakers drop to 4R at about 80 Hz before going back up their average 8 Ohms at 30 Hz. The overall sound off the 16 Ohm taps was more balanced and integrated top top bottom, ...

Hi Antonio, I just realized I glanced over that thread assuming its relationship to the 6 levels of benefits. Its quite interesting, but I do not know where I fall in that spectrum (no, it can't be discrete stages as its far to "big" to really ...

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....

Dear Romy,I do not know who uses the PowerStation75 so I cannot say whether it is helpful. I use the Powerware 5115 UPS boxes for managing the mains power supply [details on www.nps.com.au under Products and Line Interactive UPS (Corporate...

Actually (probably because of the phase coherence and tight dispersion control) they sound very good even with some basic equipments, like the small 300 USD Parasound zAmp for example, but I like them most with the pro MC2 Audio MC1250 amps or the Fr...

As much as the concept of MiniMe I find is supremely useful as much it was unlucky in my implementation. I went over a number of monitors, then built my own versions of MiniMe, then in the new room I used Danlavy SCIII. Some of them were good but it ...
