| Who Would You Spend A Day With - Pick Two I should have gotten his name correctly whipsaw since I contacted him for a Zoom meeting with my hi fi club and he was kind enough to say yes. It was a good meeting. I've never heard his speakers and given the intelligence of their design, I expe... | |
| Who Would You Spend A Day With - Pick Two My bad whipsaw, Thanks | |
| Tube DACs Obviously if a DAC has a tube, the tube has nothing to do with digital. It is usually a cathode follower for impedance matching to the device the DAC is feeding and it's there to color the sound to be tube like(otherwise it's colored solid state l... | |
| Who Would You Spend A Day With - Pick Two I'm fascinated with speaker design: Andrew Jones Heinz-Harold Fink | |
| A perfect song? What are your choices? Sandy Denny - Who knows Where The Time Goes Joni Mitchell - Urge for Going AND Ewam McCall - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face( a love song written by Ewan for Peggy Segar, Pete's sister, for the woman he spent his life with). | |
| active crossover recommendation I love active crossovers. All things being equal an active crossover beats a passive one every day. But, except possibly for sub woofers, generic crossovers have a significant weakness. Drivers, even good ones, are not flat. Much of this is handle... | |
| NEW MASTERSOUND 845 COMPACT TUBE INTEGRATED AMP : REVIEW.. PERFECTION There is no such thing as a perfect amp and the review even explains the SET compromises. I've been told the most important characteristic of an audio system is linearity and SETs are inherently non linear due to the topology of SET circuitry. SE... | |
| I want more bass… What kind of music are U listening to? does it have really deep bass? Most people think mid bass is deep bass. Woofer position, as mentioned , is critical for deep bass. Rooms actually have null spots where there is no bass if your woofers are the... | |
| Is there a 300B type amp out there with some WATTS behind it? I've seen push/pull 300B amps with as much as 28 watts. But push/pull can never sound the same a SET due to the topology difference which results in different wave forms from the two different formats. Single ended amps are asymmetrical amplifiers... | |
| This Sounds Like A Pretty Good Deal -- Opinions? Just curious. If you buy both pieces, are you going to use a low output pickup? If not try the phono stage in the C11 first. | |
| World's Best Stereo System ?... Until there's a 'perfect' system(which may be never) there will be arguements about which is the best system and the arguments are valid. | |
| Warm and accurate bookshelves that can handle volume I go along with henry53. If a system is always warm it's colored . Input varies and the system should mirror that unless you really want it to be warm all the time. It's a valid choice but it's not accurate. You can't have both. You can't even alw... | |
| Speakers with deep/powerful bass I was with my friend George Bischoff who was the main designer of Scaena speakers at Harry Pearson's years ago. The Scaena were line sources with planar tweeters and dynamic mids. The woofers were powered modular 18" woofers with equalization(actu... | |
| Hey, I'm looking for the highest quality recordings from the following Artists: Eva Cassidy is easy, the 2 CD Nightbird(or the 1 CD version) recorded live at Blues Alley. Easily the most natural(live recording) and dynamic(lack of compression) of all her recordings. And because of that it captures her unique, exciting approac... | |
| Interesting "Self" review...Schiit Measurements do matter. But they aren't only the standard ones. SET amps ahve very high 2nd harmonic distortion but that's very musical. And it can't be fixed because it's due to inherent non-linearity in the single ended topology which shows up a... |
