It's hard to predict how the anomaly will sound. Sort of like a dynamic bias shift in the tube. That's why I think IMD. The shift moves around at LF rates, so the HF reproduction can fall on any number of load lines (within loop are...

[quote user="Jorge"]I guess you cannot say you listened to a horn system if you dont have an upper bass horn. [/quote]Yes, I can very much concur with it. The upperbass and MF horns set the frame of the sound, sort of sonic skeleton upon which everyt...

I feel like i want a line array of lowThers with random graininess applied to their paper membrane as my oops channel! I would want the strings to have the texture of aged beef when it is cooked "aller/retour" (french alwys use food metaphors.).Serio...

Amy plays peaty much weekly chamber music. I listen them sometime and the idea to let her quartets to sound slightly bigger in homes, in the way how they would sound in concert hall, never left me. Of cause we are talking about an active extension of...

first i should say i need more time to judge the Audiopax for some reasons but i try to share the first thing come to my mind after listening to Audiopax.
I should say i use Pure Power 3000+ , I mean i judge Audiopax when it is c...

What sound? With Remedies or horns? Funnily enough, a few days ago I played via Dannoys my heaviest cannon - Decca London Reference +FR64S all silver wired, Charcroft Z-foils etc etc. Big symphonic music, not particularly my favorite but... it wa...

[quote user="be"]I just spoke with a guy who have made both permanent magnets and electro magnets for loudspeakers.He said that the reason that electro magnetic speakers have a smoother and more grain free sound, is due to the temperature rise in the...

[quote user="Serge"] The SIlbatone room was very large. They played an Edith Piaf record on a mono WE16B (or A, not sure). They played it very loud which I don't like, ever. I felt the system was made to show dynamics and it did it. The dynamic r...

Not that it matters, but I can't remember if that speaker was originally ported or really "sealed". Some of the old drivers were actually put in "tuned boxes", for better or for worse. I understand that your objectives for this driver afford you a ...

Audio people know how “live” music sounds and what impact it has to listener. Well not all of them know, and a large number of them never visited concert halls and are familiar with music only by the chest pressure that they experienced at pop-clubs ...

This, from my prospective a superbly truthful article, was written by a Russian guy A. Polakov. I do not know who he is but the accuracy of Mr. Polakov’s experience regarding the subject and very similar Mr. Polakov’s and my observations of the issue...

Nothng but bad electricity for quite a while now. My system gets less use because of it, so when I do finally listen it takes longer for it to get going, and then there are more questions about set-up because sound is so var...

Yesterday I was looking through “The Absolute Sound” off the stand. There was one moment in there that made me to pay attention and to comment about the read. In the very beginning of the magazine, in the reader letters section, there was someb...

is what I have called it, and what I hear you are describing? I wonder for how long you will be OK with it. We have had this effect by using 1st order crossover with absolute minimal insertion loss, so you would now listing to uncorrected drivers in ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I think Srajan was the first who recognized and adopted it, good for him. It is bad for Sound but Sound is not longer a pretend commodity of industry attention.

[quote user="CO"] I dont need flat to 20K but dropping after 10K necesetates a tweeter. [/quote]
And there is nothing wrong with it. No one 500Hz driver that said is doing to 20K in reality does it. In fact if a driver goes to 20K then the place for...

Again, I am not insisting that the material of that horn will behave like a bell so much as I am suggesting that bell-like sounds will eminate from this horn. Is the difference clear? Some of those Altec horns were textbook exam...

I never heard Everests and I hardly feel that I ever will hear them in a reasonable installation as the people who would use Everests most likely will be the people of “different type”. Still, I wonder if the Everests are the JBL’s 21st century glori...

My playback was in “distraction mode” for a few weeks. The electricity is horrible nowadays, summer… The arrival of APS made me to reposition all components disconnect everything and the failure of the APS so far to do what I want it to do did not en...

[quote user="Paul S"]Romy, I have for some time called this phenomenon the "necessary roughness", and one of the things I liked (loved, actually) about Cogent's main field coil was that it did this very well indeed over about 2 octaves; in fact, it w...

Yep, Stefano, it looks like we do have similar views about the subjects we touched. Let go back to exploring one of the terra incognito of compression driver – the sound of Goto.
I would insist is that to judge sound of Goto driver from the installa...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"]It is unnatural to think about these things while listening to live music, so why switch when listening to a stereo? [/quote]I think about these things because I am listening to a stereo. The recording and reproduction of t...

The discussion of the abstract nature of the elusive "Hertz" reminds me that individuals and orchestras have long tuned to different "Abstract A", in the "first place". Besides, once you broaden a "tone" into an instrumental "note", all bets are off...

[quote user="Paul S"]Yesterday a nice fellow drove off with "my" Lamm ML2s. Now it is really sinking in: How will will I find anything else this good, along with more power?These amps were like a PhD in sound, what might be done with hi-fi. Yes, I ...

I was thinking about the obvious disparity between the
“sound of live music” and the times of special involvement with Music that I’ve
experienced over the years, and for decades I have been turning these notions
around like puzzle pieces, try...

Starboy,
looking at your reply in the Denon-103 thread, and considering that you are from UK, I conclude that you are well-familiar with Ortofones. Can you tell me more about them?
I never had them personally, I had in past a inexpensive Ortofone ...

What is interesting that “remembering sound” works differently with our minds then just “listening sound”. When we listen sound we might or might not listen the sound itself but when we are “remembering sound” we do not listen the sound but rather a ...
