Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking...

Someone just said to me that you can tweak a turntable but not a dac....It is ridiculous .... 😎

Most people are unconscious of the fact that ANY electronic component is a GENERIC design which will contribute to the final S.Q ONLY by a SPECIFIC installation in the three controlled embeddings, nevermind the fact that it is a turntable or a dac...And embeddings controls are not disparate tweaks...But it is another story i already adressed... 😏🧐

NO generic design can sound the same in different specific environment....It is precisely the reason why all reviews are anecdotes and not facts...

What is significative with reviews is their numbers statistics, negative or/and positive, not the details of each one....

I bought my Sansui AU 7700 because there is not one negative review in 50 years... Try and look for one.....😛

Except for the very rich people who can afford to enroll an acoustician, and an electrician and a mechanical engineer, and buy the best costly engineered gear; it is not money that will give to most of us audiophile experience, it is the rightfull controls of the three embeddings, and that can cost peanuts but you need ears and brain....

Money is finally not so useful or indispensable in audio, except for those who dont use their brain....😊

Merry Christmas....

Joyeux Noel, mon ami!

Food for tought:


Among my hundred( around 120 cables connections) connections, between my resonators grids , diffusors, Schuman generators grid, sometimes a cable(they are very thin and glued by copper adhesive tape often) detach itself by accident and i cannot know it on the spot...

Today this 4 connections, 2 between my diffusors grid and 2 in my resonators grid connected to the central"Bell of bells" (36 little resonators with H.D. on a bigger bell) spontaneously disconnect themselves....

I did not know why nor when this happened in the last night ...

I was listening some piano, a cd of Bach by Feltsman i know by heart, and i was disapointed by the sound, by a lack of transparency, the image was correct, but i has sense a veil that was not there few days ago...

I stood up and inspect my connections, i spot the problem rapidly ...

Conclusion:

All These connections were made few at a times, incrementally in the last 2 years, each one added something positive, sometimes very subtle....

When i look at all these cables i think that perhaps i am nut....Like my wife think....

But the proof is there, each time i lost to much connections (this already happened a few times the audible🤔) the resultant effect is disastrous; the level of loss is dependent of the connection itself, the Schumann Generators being the most important central grid of all these grids then the most important connections, but all others also are valuable from the first day that i decide to introduce them until today....

I am nut but i am proud to have been able to create my paradise, at peanuts cost i remind you of that....😋


Happy new year in this Christmas day.....

A NEW UNORTHODOX ACOUSTICAL DEVICE,


not homemade, not at a peanut cost like most of my own creations all along this thread but it is working... 😀

I hesitated a bit to comunicate that because i am proud of my creativity and to this day i improvised my embeddings controls all by myself with no branded name product addition....I modified the Shumann generators even if i bought them ready made....This new product i will not touch it tough....I only imagined for it an unknown use to the inventor’s brain....

Anyway....

I just bought a French product designed to perturb the olfactive sense of moskitoes by ionizing the molecules of the air and taking viruses to the floor instead of letting them surfing toward your nose.... I created for it a third function unsuspected and unexpected by the French inventor.... 😎😋😊

I will only give a short citation from the french site about how this device work:

«Our technology is based on the principle of dielectric barrier discharges. Our technology does not use any consumables and does not generate any chemical residue. An electrode is subjected to a high electrical voltage, which produces controlled dielectric barrier discharges which, acting on the components of the ambient air, create a cold plasma of ions. The anions thus produced have a proven antiviral and anti-bacterial effect, and also have a repellent effect on mosquitoes, by annihilating the odors emitted by human beings and by disturbing their olfactory organs.»

I bought it first like a portable antivirus device that can add protection to the mask in close waiting room; i was trustful because this device has been certified to works officially by Pasteur Institute in a joint venture between the private sector and the Institute it seems......

BUT ionizing the air of a room stick a bell in my head of audiophile....This may work good for asthma but also to the hearing apparatus and do well with the room atmosphere indeed...

I add it to my audio room, and guess what?

Audible modification of the closed atmosphere by ionization make the sound to be more easily perceptible , each colored tone and timbre dynamic being more refine....At nearfield and at regular distance....the device is able to treat a small room...

Then i must give to you the good news, something that repell the mosquitoes because they smell you no more, that makes virus falls on the floor instead of surfing in the air , and a device that transforn the acoustical settings of the room for 100 US dollars is low cost.... It is not peanuts cost tough i am sorry for that.... BUT now i cannot go without it....

That device kills 3 birds in one shot.....

🐦🐦🐦🔫 🙃 Not 🥜 but nevermind low cost.......Anything under 100 us is low cost in my book, anything under 25 us is peanuts....

Happy New Year.....
