[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...

Well, I was there, which is more than The Cat can say. In fact, The Cat never heard a complete WE system first hand, so I'll have to take that into advisement when the expected foaming-at-the-whiskers rant.I always wonder why people would giv...

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...

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...

[quote user="manisandher"]Romy, this is very interesting indeed. I'm assuming that the sonic difference between these two files is in line with the sonic difference you hear between bad and good 'electricity' days when you're just listening to music,...

[quote user="morricab"] The one thing that the Lamm ML2 does differently than nearly all tube amps is regulation of the output stage. They do this with the 2nd 6C33C that is on the chassis. Even the KR amps don't do this and I think it is...

Well, another page of my saga with APS regenerator is turned. I got the updated APS unit. It kind of “works” as I redefined the definition of word “works”. Under normal circumstances I would walk away from it but there are some moments in my “bad ele...

Well, I finally found and implemented a digital front end that I can live with. I have been so cynical about digital up to now that I have kept and used an old, cheap Sony player (albeit one actually made in Japan...) because up to now it seeme...
