[quote user="Antonio J."]So I thought my tuner weren't properly adjusted. It has not been serviced nor recently aligned, I have no proficient technicians around who I depend to let them put their hands into the tuner. The damn thing always ...

[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...

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...

I have been adding and reconfiguring gear recently and I will be needing a 6' digital cable very soon, when I add batteriy power, so I just went ahead and bought one of the "Synopsis" remainders Romy mentioned.This $5 discontinued Belkin blue ca...

[quote user="op.9"]Romy, is there a problem with the DAC1 file? After 16' there is an audible click then a lowering of level and a much more bleached out sound. [/quote]Nope, it was how it was broadcasted. I did nothing with that file. I know that de...

Romy,I've been reading your site sporadically for some months: to educate myself and formulate some next steps. Anyway, I saw your note on visiting San Francisco, and would be happy to host you for some music listening. What I offer from a system s...

[quote user="steverino"]Quite frankly, these
products are of greater importance to people living in countries with irregular
utility power. You don't have to be an audiophile to notice the benefits in
that situation. For me they are more useful in...

I fail to see why a dedicated audio room *should* be isolationist. If there are enough space (or good planning) the room can be made as a separated structure but at same time as a continuation of the whole house, allowing people to be there without d...

Following on from my last two posts, I finally managed to try the Model Two in AD mode. With the Model Two set to 24/4fs and wordclock master, I cannot discern a difference between the source and the source passing through the Model Twos AD/DA. Furth...

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....

The more I think about the more I feel that my old idea to install a timer inside the amp that would measure the time the amps is running was not so bad. I never in fact implemented it but it would be convenient to have it. What I am thinking is that...

Hi Rony,
Not a dumb question; wifi and CPL internet connections are suboptimal when near audio systems. By coincidence, last night I bumped into the following post which walks through one person's view on "electric gremlins" he found at 470hz (etal....

Romy, as you can see, I have never wrote that these parasitic sounds depend ONLY on the quality of the drivers. It is quite obvious they depend on many many many other things (practically everything) as for example bad microphones, bad microphone cab...

[quote user="BWO"]I'v read the book (missing a few of the last pages). The boook definetly have som useful information. Especially about setup, placing speakers at different positions and some decent and brief info on acoustic treatment. Unfortunatel...

As I said I do not use phrases “soul” of “soul-less”. Perhaps I have enough grip of it in audio and do not need to trade “soul” in place of plate currents or polarity of cables. Sure, we all chaise the self-selected ghosts regardless what we do. It ...

I am with you on this one. I am also very suspicious of gigantic, 4-chassis phono stages if only because I just wonder why the need for all those damn noisy parts, along with concommitment connections?So it really pisses me off to admit that th...

I can’t figure out what it is since it is a first Ortofon that I opened. Can you tell me what it is? Anyhow, I am little disappointed as I anticipated that it should be a purely mono cartridges. I wounded what I have to do with it if I have only 2 ca...

Yep, I was trying to evaluate the opportunities – it is not that I what to have a lot of space but I would like to add the space in random order. The external network drives wanted me to buy the identical drives in today prices, too expansive of I go...

[quote user="steverino"]I think this only works with grossly deficient recordings. I believe Levinson chose a historical recording as his example for the reviewer. But it allows the FM Acoustics listener to spend endless hours fiddling with the contr...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, this is interesting. I my case nether neither CEC nor Bidat affect other of the tuners. Lavrys do but not Bidat. Try to put ferrite on ALL Sansui inputs: antenna, power cord, output cables. I have 3 bids on each leg of ...

[quote user="peter foster"]Dear Romy, it is possible. I would need to obtain some cables to make the connection between my Sansui TU-X1 and Lavry Blue ADC. Also, I do not have access yet to broadband so till then recordings could be to CD...

I must say I've never came in to intimate contact with cables and avoid it untill I can, so yes all my arguments are theoretical.By amplifying I ment of course voltage, not power and ass-u-med that the external noise as well as the cable distortion a...
