| Taralabs cables There's a second reason why high-powered amplifiers should outperform low-powered ones, even at low output levels. It is customary to equip an amplifier with an output transformer that is no larger than it has to be in order to yield full rated po... | |
| Taralabs cables Thus far, we have fairly well established the power that we must have in order to avoid outright overload when reproducing original orchestral level through a speaker of known efficiency. But it is not all the power we should have on hand, becaus... | |
| Taralabs cables The formula that we described for arriving at our minimum RMS power figure assumed that the loudspeaker radiated its sound in all directions away from the source. In truth, some speakers don't. The best loudspeakers for small-room listening are di... | |
| Taralabs cables The power figure derived by the above calculation represents the minimum amount of RMS power needed to reproduce an orchestral crescendo at its original measured sound pressure. The figure will apply as a total power requirement for both channels ... | |
| Taralabs cables Sound pressure readings are made using a special microphone probe and a meter that resembles a tape recorder's VU meter but is calibrated in dynes/cm2 of pressure or in decibels above the threshold of human hearing. The sound meter shares the same... | |
| Taralabs cables So, for the purposes of this article, we are going to assume that you will, at least occasionally, play your system at foreground level.What about orchestra-in-the-room level? Although a popular advertising gambit, this is an absurd notion. To be ... | |
| Taralabs cables All right, then, how much power should we have? Simply stated, we should have enough power to reproduce the desired sound at the desired level without exceeding a certain limit of distortion. This reads like a masterpiece of evasion, but it is a s... | |
| Taralabs cables As is often the case in such a diagonal disputation, both are partly right. One source of the widespread disagreement stems from the lack of any standardized criteria for judging power requirements. Thus, one expert may be stating how much power w... | |
| Taralabs cables Considering the amount of careful research, cautious theorizing and wild speculation that have been lavished on the amplifier power question, we should expect to be considerably closer to the answer in 1962 than we were five years ago. This does n... | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? Hi knghifi, I have no idea why Patrick Bresnahan told me that the vanguard is made in China, unless likely it is! , I am assuming that krell could have made a few units in USA, then moved some production to China, all I know is Patrick told me ... | |
| Taralabs cables TARA (The Absolute Reference Audio) Labs is a manufacturer of a high-end audio cables from Medford, Oregon. It's led by president Merrill Bergs. The trademark of Tara Labs is their use of solid wire.The company was established in 1984, when compan... | |
| Is there Really a difference between a Krell 400xi intergrated amp and the newer Vandgard? Research was thoroughly done! | |
| Taralabs cables Hi denon1, yes, taralab's does build to order by hand, I would also mention that the likely time frame specified in your post is also to fill order's that may be ahead of your order, Greg, you should have seen me with my anticipation for my ca... | |
| Taralabs cables This is the matching power cord for the Air Evolution Interconnect and speaker cable's, Air Reference ACThe RSC Air Reference AC uses Air-tube™ technology that reduces dielectric distortion within cable; has an extremely low noise floor wit... | |
| I am somewhat amazed that there is no thread dealing with Star Sound Tech's devices Tbg, read your review, good write, maybe one day after my upgrade to taralab's Evolution zero and Evolution omega sp speaker cable's this year I could bring my cable's to home and listen with the tripoint troy signature with thor grounding cabl... |
