| Cheap grounding solution Here you go: https://audiobacon.net/2017/12/09/gutwire-perfect-ultimate-ground-cables-review/ | |
| Cheap grounding solution You plug the ground only connected power plug into the socket indeed. The whole idea is to get a strong ground connection as often circuit boards are not properly connected | |
| Cheap grounding solution I am obviously not in any way a technical expert but it seems similar devices (Gutwire) are positively reviewed by the likes of audiobacon, audiophileman and 6moons and sold by the CableCo. Seems another religious war is in the making. | |
| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters Hey millercarbon,welcome to the supertweeter church: I covered the subject on my thread about my Murata ES103As. Didn‘t get much traction but wish people for once were listening; It makes a huge difference and I hope your post gets people to recon... | |
| SET vs OTL @pani,touché: your description is dead-on. That said all but the best SETs suffer from their transformers: it usually sounds like there has been a cushion put on the music; yes, the flow is there but it somewhat sounds muffled and damped. Other th... | |
| Looking for preamp which is good at BOTH single-ended AND balanced output Try finding a used Graaf 13.5BII, you‘ll get both and be hard pressed finding a better preamp | |
| SET vs OTL 👌 on the DeVores! | |
| CD v Streamed If you get sweeter highs from vinyl, more likely than not your digital replay is affected by RFI/EMI or imperfect clocking. Absent those two, distortion levels on vinyl will always be higher and dynamic range lower. Fixes include ethernet filters,... | |
| Apple Music Anything other than lossless has no future. With 5g rollout there won‘t be anyfurther bandwidth constraints and hence no reason for compressed formats | |
| SET vs OTL BTW, both on OTLs and on SETs low capacitance speaker cables are clearly preferable, think Shindo or similar | |
| SET vs OTL P.P.SThe French company might have been Jadis or Audioaero, both of which build good amps. | |
| SET vs OTL P.S. Push pull designs and SETs are very different, The overtone characteristics of SETs make for a much more nuanced and colourful sound. The differences tend to be most pronounced via horn designs. Obviously pp is higher output. | |
| SET vs OTL @audition_audio,the higher the impedance, the better for OTLs. On the Graaf, the autoformers gave a marked improvement to going without. Old speakers used to be 16 ohms which would be ideal for OTls, however most modern designs have impedance dips... | |
| SET vs OTL My speakers are Duevel Bella Lunas with 6 ohms impedance and 93db efficiency. To run the Graaf I used Paul Speltz Autoformers to step them up. I used Bybee Golden Goddess Speaker Bullets in both instances and Auditorium23 speaker cable. | |
| SET vs OTL I have used a Graaf Gm20 for about 10 years before upgrading to a Wavac Ec300b some 10 years ago. In short, there is no going back: while the Graaf had twice the stated output power, making that power useful was challenging: using autoformers to i... |
