[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Rakesh, Equi=Tech is a know player in the fields of audio electricity. Back in 2001-2002 I had 3 of the Equi=Tech transformers. I was not pleased with results. I do not like the balanced operation for power lines – in my vi...

I know that I should come soon or later and it is here already. I visitor of my site have pointed out that some Philadelphia Symphony among a few others offer a service where public can download the recordings of ‘live’ recordings of the perfor...

We enter a complicated region as the lower driver we go the drivers could be used for different purposes and it is very hard to generalize. A 10-incher might be MF driver and LF driver. In my past I experimented with few MF 10-inchers, including some...

Jessie, I do not know why I stuck with the Aura NRT18-8. The Aura NRT18-8 and Aura 1808 are very deferens drivers and I do not think I even mentioned the NRT18-8 as something that worth attention, and particularly in the “Exceptional Drivers” thread....

It appears that I need both. I have had quite a relationship with these pieces. I go back and forth between them. I think that this is purely because of the differences between young and old Gould. For me, they need eachother, in a way. I think ...

Petar, thanks for the pic posting link (which I've read over and over), but my problem posting pictures is my ancient browser, so that's another task. Again, there's really not much of what one would like to see that I can show, short of disassem...

Thanks, ferenc.
I went to Ocean Way Recording the Federated Mike mentioned but I did not see anything in there and I did not know that they have also an oceanwayaudio.com site. They call it the HR2 and it was built for them by Allen Sides, so ...

New member, first post, so go easy on me!Ive been playing around with clocks in digital audio for a while. Current system uses a DCS Scarlatti stack with the Scarlatti clock. Synching to the Scarlatti clock rather than using the Scarlatti DAC as mast...

Roman,[quote user="Romy the Cat"]May I ask you, this realization of yours… dose it has any “sound”. [/quote]The one we have build which is a little different (6S45 not C3g, also tried WE 417A, 437A, TX-101 Copper not silver, AN UK Line Output Transfo...

[quote user="Paul S"] I don't know Zander at all, ...[/quote] If you do not know him them you need to learn about him. It is a good conductor and a exceptional populizator of classical music. Here is the emblematic Benjamin Zander:

Romy, et al, I got rid of my tube tester a few decades ago... yet I still need to match sets of tubes for equipment. When you consider many SE designs with no feedback loops, you need to match "sets" of tubes to get matched performance between ampli...

Yes, behind this ambitious title there is nothing to read besides
my typical rant about audio industry but there is also an opportunity for you
to think.
It is end of the year and audio industry is flowering with

Edgar, I completely miss you in all of your findings and I also was thinking about 15-in toy with a pair of sunspeak passive radiators. Indeed, Tannoys reinforced by sanspeak passive radiators is a magical configuration. I wonder do you dri...

[quote user="Antonio J."] I have listened to some expensive speakers from B&W, Wilson Audio, Dynaudio, and also owned the SF Amati, you know already. Musically these ones were more musically interesting to me than any of the others, but still wer...

[quote user="de charlus"]Alas, I am too young to have that whole "Mirrorphonics nostalgia" coloring my taste in sound reproduction - still, this is not to say that it cannot be investigated. [/quote] Actually the "Mirrorphonics nostalgia" that some p...

Hi Romy,I have found that the Apogee loudspeakers ribbon drivers can quite successfully reproduce correct tone. The reason why is this: They have very little coloration from the driver materials themselves (no nasty resonances as the reso...

Well, the license of think this way was given to me by one mini-monitor that I found to sound “promising” for the objectives that I would like to achieve. In fact not even the monitor itself but the bass driver, the drive that in a way was unique cha...

A year or so ago (I do not know exactly when it started as I but audio publication irregularly) I have see that Wilson Audio begin to advertise their new loudspeakers as the design inspired by David Wilson’s revelation after he was sitting at...

Dear Romy,Assuming that your questions are "honest" ones ( I have no reason to believe they are traps, like it happened to me before with a certain Mr. Thor), I will give you "honest" answers, hoping that our dialogue will be of some interest to the ...

I would not be surprised to learn that the impression of depth from multi-cells is the result of their creating a bit of what has been referred to on this site as the x-factor; a sort of cross-feed/expander effect (see discussion of...

T, ‘m glad to see you around. Your position is quite educational although not an unproblematic. I do not agree with some of the points you brought up (I mean that 103-is very low compliance cartridge - 5x10-6 cm/dyne (except D and M), disagree with ...

Romy,
Sorry for taking so long to get back to you… (this being the summer time in a Latin country, I still have no internet connection at the new place).

[quote user="hagtech"] I run the driver tube at 170V @20mA. I don't think you need to run this tube at high current. It is very linear with wide signal swings at this bias. [/quote]
Good operation points for use it as a driver. You might...
