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...

SOS, as a starting point, it does not seem at all odd to me that adding an "other" piece of equipment to the electrical chain might require a reconfiguration of the system ground scheme. Of course, the phono stage is the worst case for hum, PP o...

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...

This weekend I decide to take my FM where it should be. I ran ~125” and installed a dipole on the roof of my building and serviced my tuner. The result was as expected but there was something unexpected. Along with all normal benefits of better anten...

The Rohde & Schwarz EU-6201 tuner was made for German Ultrakurzwellen (ultra short waves or FM) Broadcast Network. The idea was to have a chain of wide-bandwidth composite signal receivers that feed re-transmitters. I made an attempt to accommoda...

[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...

You force me to say that you are really rude person , or at least you make an effort to be so . Do you really think I'm so stupid to want a line filter which costs $ 5000 only "to reduce high frequencies " ? The electrical line in my houseis terrible...
|
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...

I set up both Super Milqs on their new stands and they look very-very cute in comfy in their corners. They also srayhigher and I can reach the plate current regulators without bending my body. Since I become “circumferentially challenged” lately...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] In here is not the value are important but the concept the you block DC not with capacitor but with an “active” resistor that backed up with positive voltage. BTW, eventually if you wish to go “kinky Milq” and have a v...

[quote user="manisandher"]Well let's just say that I find the retailer's version of events difficult to believe. It would be just amazing if something pierced the (quite hefty) packing material and the metal underside of the power supply casing... an...

Howdy,Here are two links to videos demonstrating experiments in the speed of electricity.The first shows how a portion of flow is instantaneous and the rest at the speed of light. Measured with a really quick scope and a 1000m loop of wire.https://ww...

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...

So, what you would have to do is buy a bunch of #9 AWG solid copper wire from China, so it is only 99% pure,acid etch the surface, paint it with tar and wind it up in a snake sex twist. Or pay them to do it for you.The idea is sound, the application ...

Well, the electricity suddenly switched gears today, and it entered into an entirely unknown level of cleanliness; and what do you know? The "cables" pretty much became a non-factor. I suppose this means that noise is A Very Big Issue mos...

Like I said, musical bass via the TAP does not thin out at all before my BR bins roll it off; but that's as much as I can say at this point. And (against conventional logic) the TAP certainly does much better bass than any active LS I...

N-set, it is nice to see that you are keep punching the idea, somebody shall, I guess.. About the filters. For the low-pass and in this application I do not use inductors and much prefer RC filter. In LC filters the band-pass flows over coil. If we a...

OK, I finally have my sample re-recorded in a format matching your file. Details are the same as before. (I set the Tascam inputs to "bypass" and used the Callisto to attenuate the signal. Levels are the same.) The only change is as I was...

I have for a month or so the Allnic H-1500 II SE Plus phono stage sitting in my home. It is two chassis phonostages with tube rectification, tube regulation, LCR 600R filters, own Allnic step up transformer for MC needles, 5842/417A in gain stage...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Give me a break! Sorry, but I do not believe in all of it.
The Cat[/quote]It is simply a unit for customers who have more money than brain.The Raven AC was on the Frontpage from TAS and Stereophile (I think), and for some...

Using the AD/DA and employing those Dominus cables I could not believe lived without the tape loop. Plugging Pacific into the loop I in fact save one spare cable and got assurance that I would never will move/plug/unplug my AD anymore. I feel like w...

While I was moving in to my new home John Wight undertook my Bidat for his new update. Up to now I did not have playback properly performing but the last 2-3 weeks I feel that my playback is back. Again, whatever I lien now has only upperbass horn a...

[quote user="David"]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 ...

I spend my time/effort/money to get a good sound from computer or MacBook.my trial and error proved me that I could not attack CEC TL0-X by Computer Audio.I also lost my money 4500$ in ordering external PSU to Paul Hynes. Paul is not trusted and do n...

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...
