| Help me identify an amp The ST70 was sold as a kit and also fully assembled. The tape labels suggest DIY. The PCB is not a Dyna but may offer a clue. | |
| Help me identify an amp The chassis, layout, transformers are from a Dyna ST70 but one that has been significantly modified in many way. I suggest a search for Dyna mods with 8417s to see if you can find a match. | |
| Do you have a perfect digital marriage? NAS via LAN to WinPC/Jriver/DiracLive. WinPC/Jriver/DiracLive via LAN(Ravenna) to Merging Hapi II D/A Pristine. | |
| Identify, repair or replace mid range speaker in B139 based setup FWIW, the B139 is, technically, not an oval which has no flat sides. The shape is more like a racetrack. | |
| Identify, repair or replace mid range speaker in B139 based setup Peerless KO40-MRF. Often used in configurations where a low crossover from the B139 was not necessary. In those situations, a KEF B200 was the popular choice. | |

| Dirac without losing resolution Name the miniDSP devices you are considering. | |
| Dirac without losing resolution The answer already given is digital and the particular nature would depend on what is available on the specific miniDSP and the HiFi Rose devices chosen. | |
| Dirac without losing resolution the issue is that I can’t seem to find a way to avoid limiting the resolution to 24/192 or even lower with most dirac endpoints. AFAIK, DL is limited to 24/192. So what? Yes, I lose the DSP benefits with those recordings but they still sound ... | |
| Stereophile spec measurement baffling(pun?) An SPL meter doesn't sound like a bad thing to have in the house. REW is better. | |
| Stereophile spec measurement baffling(pun?) The anechoic -6dB point is useful to know when considering what LF the speaker will offer in your room when the effect of room gain is added. Sometimes, companies will offer low end response in a "typical" room but without stating the room dimens... | |
