Let's just pretend for the moment that you haven't heard the particular TAD driver Kevin is using , and consider the possibility that for at least for some portion of its frequency range, it has a tone similar to the S2 - perhaps it uses an alnico ma...

Paull, the horns might be “beautiful” but only themselves. When they are jointed with the rest Macondo spherical chennals then I do not like how it all looks together. Regarding the drivers, I do have a few options, I might slowly exercise them and ...

[quote user="PurePower"] In the world or audio you learn new and interesting facts every day. AC caps (ceramic, electrolytic, polyester and polypropylene metallized foil types) can buzz at various frequencies. This is not nonsense, and is quite...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] In the 2008 I have a few immediate goals:
1) Finalize the 6-chennals version of Super Melquiades and integrate it with Macondo
2) Finalize the “End of Life" Phonostage:
3) ...

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...

[quote user="steverino"] You have an unusual situation because you have so many dimmers (one type of device). [/quote]Well, the unusual situation is only as experimentation. In the house I bough pretty much etch light switch had a dimmer. I have ...

Well, Doug
My attraction to HD Radio statred from the moment when I learned that my WGBH does one less step of analog compression for DH1 compare to FM and do not use limiting-out at HD2 for live-to-tape recordings. Very promising, isn’t it?&n...

My prize to the most interesting and educational room at the show goes to a room with WAVAC 833 power SETs. Visiting this room made me to think a lot and made me to draw a lot of very valuable to me conclusions.
I heard a lot about those amps. Recen...

Hey, Paul,
long time no see. It is nice that you got rid form that Wadia. Wadia for sound, any Wadia, is like a eating Peking dumplings made with no salt, no paper, no meat and cooked in non-boiled water. I always was astonished with the popularity...

Okay,First, thank you for responding so fully or roundly(?) to my reply. Second, I apologise for any annoyance caused by my missive(s). I had my doubts at the time, and was a little fluey to boot. Not an excuse.Third, the guard...

I was recently informed that some guys whose interests restricted only around a subject how to make the “Bride cut the cake” to sound louder took the above-posted article under thier “scrupulous” collaboration.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Still, there is an interesting phenomenon that I never was able to understand. I observe Lamm’s show rooms from I think 1998-1999 to 2006 when I did my last audio show. Surprisingly all Lamm rooms at audio shows sound ...

Last nigh I spend a couple hours to listening this thing. Since the amp is done in design phase and the final parts are still in order I can not finish it and close up – it kind of frustrating… Still, it gives opportunities to listen it knowing that ...

I would like to share my observations about public perception of Melquiades - The Realty Reconstructions Amplifier.
Melquiades, or as I affectedly-abridgedly call it “the Melq” was released to pubic exactly a year ago:

JJ and the rest of guys. I am a bit surprised with your
reaction to the audio portion of this thread. I hope people read my site for
long enough to recognize strategically placed satire which the whole Mocondo inheritance
section was. The events d...

I have been asked by a number people who monitored my progress with RAAL’s “Water Drop” tweeter: “Romy was it worth it?” Well, I think after a year of leaving with tweeter, learning and satisfying it’s little habits I might pass some generalizing obs...

Well, Jessie, I think you're exercising a wishful thinking but you have, I think, a wrong subject for your thinking. Neither Lamm nor any other high-end manufacture care about result as a concept but rather a result as product. A product b...

Paul,
As far as I know the Expressive Technologies have only tow models: the regular transformers and toroidal transformers. The toroidal version (SU-2) is not available publicly which left that whatever the Expressive magnetic available out there i...

[quote user="manisandher"]PS Have you ever come across the writings of Ken Wilber? [/quote]
Nope, I did not. I googled him as it looks like I deliberately stopped to read this type of writing years back

More days came, with different electricity and it looks l like the PP2011 hold its stand – I did not detect a significant change in Sound so far. I gave a scoop plagued in the wall all time and I did not see so far a relation between the wave profile...

Rowuk, ironically I am in agreement with your high horse approach
and Amir’s “acknowledge and be happy” point of view. Almost in continuation to
my thread from last week “Destination vs ceremony” I would like to ask a question.

Hello Romy a long time visitor now a member. I have always been interested in what improvements can be made to my incoming power. I use a BPT 2, PS noise harvesters and quite lines through out the house. My system has always had very good sound...

The Hi-Fi is boutique products and it is customary to sell it for boutique prices. I am sure the economy also “helps”.

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Rakesh,I think you’ve missed the accent of my battery post. We do not argue abstract topologies but we argue the validity of topology in respect to sonic results. I hope we all agree that we do not exactly know WHY affect...

BTW, the Jessie, since you will be apparently mingling with you PP converting it into Euvro (Romynism form European Voltage) then you might find the comments of the PS Audio owner worth attention. Sure, not when his older PP is archaic product he is ...
