The Vienna Philharmonic sees itself as having inherited a body of instrument types which at the end of the 18th century reflected the prevailing intellectual spirit and value system, not only of central Europe, but to a certain extent of the entire c...

... to better express myself, with every needed nuance... Roman: I never wrote I'm able to time-align my speakers, I only told you I quite recently began "moving" drivers and horns as I never did in the past few years, NOT simply looking for a practi...

I had some experience with bad electricity so i would like to share it here. My audio system does not have ground loop. 1- digital sources (I have CD Player) is more sensitive to Bad Electricity than Pre/Powers. 2- if your audio system Continuously p...

TonyB,Romy has commented on the perceived differences between the 2000 and 3000 as well as the older units and the Plus units earlier in the thread.I am thinking that the power utilization level of a system may be a significant factor in perceived be...

truth is i took a risk.i bought the s2s on ebay,and have never heard them.i was motivated to experiment and explore the core of the mac/melq system.i have owned many horns and heard many more. one case in point;avantgarde duo,i have heard this speake...

Now I have had the EdgarHorns in my system for a number of weeks and have been moving them around the room and moving things in the room around to make them sound their best. So far I have come to this problem: when I have heard many othe...

It's my system that Romy discussed above. I've been fighting electricity problems for 25 years using everything from home generators to multiple 3 KV isolation transformers in series with banks of caps, to multi mega-buck high end audio products to l...

While the pure power units are the best I’ve heard at removing ac grunge, they are still not 100% effective.
Last night my listening and video session was unbelievable. We had about a foot of very light soft snow during the day.
As soon as ...

That such ideal bussiness is open and I go there to pay a listen to an "out of parameters" system which really enlightens myself about what can be obtained with audio. The questions come later. How can I get the devices to set up a sys...

I realize this is off topic, but I would like to address the issue:Rackish wrote: "...Recently I asked someone who contributes regularly on your forum and has a system 'similar' to yours to come and listen to his system. He did not answer. I feel e...

[quote user="yoshi"]In case of fake stamps or self-contradiction in a story, it is rather easy to point out how it is so by introducing an evidence. In case of audio, usually there's only his system/result that is present. When ...

Telus, briefly, in my system:The Synapse is "good" because is ameliorates HF noise adroitly enough to make it "work" in some systems (probably most systems...), including my own before recent "upgrades" to my DAC opened the door to other options. Fo...

Yes, the similarity between the horn system and the Baba-Jaga hut on fowl's legs is uncanny. The system might be only loosely based on text book principles, but did you notice the use of cotton isolated wire connecting the speaker syst...

Amir, You are just not reading and thinking about it carefully enough. The only point of Romy's that I might have some slight question is that a great system can make a beautifully recorded second rate (not bad) performance sound satisfactory enough...

Oh I think it is very much a recursive arc but not in terms of audio fidelity etc as much as life history. But sometimes we can reculer pour mieux sauter. As big a problem as audio systems are to musical fidelity, the room effect is just as jarring. ...

[quote user="Paul S"]George, since you have been using the Equi=Tech units for a while now, what do you like about them, and will you compare the sound you get with and without them? Also, what do you not like about electricity with the Equi=Tech un...

Amir. for me. regardless of what I've started out to do in audio, I have been forced to compromise along the way. I am sharing my speaker/amp compromises in this thread. My "second system" is a radio (or computer) and headphones (or "desk speakers")....

I have not found the PPs to completely isolate under many situations although they even out sonics across the day fairly well. The PP is far more steady when hooked into my small tubed bedroom system than the main system, the small TV HT system or th...

IMO, with care the Lowther DX4 does pretty well from 150 to 10k Hz.; but it is as colored when "loaded" by a horn as anything else.The "notch-filtered" DX4 driver is pretty natural in an OB within its "easy" range, lacking only the la...

My first guess would be that the hiss you are getting is "tube rush" form upstream rather than an artifact of any resistor/voltage divider. This may mean you still have too much system gain. Again, properly tubed ML2s make NO so...

Got a Hi-Fi Mini System. It was one of those Mini System that is conceded “great”, including by some of my “trusted” friends. Well, the “great” Mini System turned out to be quite crappy sounding, even for those $250. Was trying to run with the Mini S...

Again, for anyone who may not know (and not to torture or talk down to those who do know):US electrical systems (along with most others I am aware of) have by code but one main ground that is shared by the "neutral"/return wire (white, hereabout...
