From tubes back to SS? I never got to hear that one except at a CES where I met Mr. Bedini. He was giving out a publication he created about free energy.And of course earlier I meant 'kid' when I wrote 'kit'.... :) | |
Modded or stock Technics SL1200G jbrrp I also use a funk firm mat I had to get the 3mm one because the 5mm one I had was too tall for the Triplanar, not alot of room to lower the arm on this table. I had to get a board from Greece and drill it myself because no one in the US w... | |
Gobel and the Bending Wave Ah. I had thought that the Linaeum AMT was also the Linaeum bending wave tweeter, but apparently they are different. You can see the Lineaum bending wave tweeter in the first link you provided above. | |
Gobel and the Bending Wave Sorry, AMT is not bending wave, Atmasphere. It's motion is pistonic, although at an angle. :) IMHO, to be a bending wave, the transducer must be excited at one end, and have the sound wave emit off the surface as the wave travels from one end t... | |
Speakers under $50k that rival $200k+ speakers? Directly or indirectly Ralph is affiliated with both Classic Audio and Sound Labs, so of course they are great speakers.I walk my talk. I've shown with both companies at shows, because they make great speakers. Beyond showing with them I have no a... | |
How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? I have admitted I sometimes hear differences between amps, but, after reviewing evidence (incomplete?) I am also open to the possibility those were explainable by power/obvious artifacts or simply not objectively audibleWhat is 'objectively au... | |
Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue. I would say that the it went so far that the audio magazines adversely changed the design of speakers and the values of the designers. The tail wagging the dog. ^^ This.All transistor amplifiers (maybe, except pure class A) have thermal distorti... | |
Do electrolytic caps need burn in? Once the electrolytic has formed up, it should work about as well as the film caps in a coupling cap situation, so long as its biased correctly. To this end, whatever AC voltage is being sent through it as an audio signal should never exceed the D... | |
From tubes back to SS? I started with tubes when I was a kit, and literally pulled gear from dumpsters and rebuilt it because I had no money.Friends on mine in high school were all like- 'when are you going to get into the space age?' as if all aerospace gear was someho... | |
Trouble joining "Insider"? They asked me to join 'Insiders' for free, on account of my being on this site for so long. But the link didn't work, so no Insider. | |
Low Sensitivity Speakers Compression Issue. IMO/IME low efficiency speakers are next door to criminal. On top of the thermal distortion issue, they cause you to need a high powered amp, and IME one of those that actually sounds like music is a rare beast indeed.Also IME higher efficiency sp... | |
Gobel and the Bending Wave The Air Motion Transformer was a bending wave, so is the tweeter used in the High Emotion Audio loudspeakers. Very nice and fast, smooth due to no breakups? | |
How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? @mrdecibel Its on this thread too:No, in my limited experience, I often don't hear the difference between amplifiers (with the exception of underpowered or tube-bloated amps)The comment is ridiculous, but one that is common in this debate, as if... | |
How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? I may be missing something (point it out to me), but there’s almost no convincing evidence out there to support repeatably audible differences between high quality cables or amps The differences have to do with distortion. This is easy to measure,... | |
How far have ss amps really come in the last twenty years? And if you disagree, and can prove an audible difference under his conditions (gain matching), he's offering a pair of his top-of-the-line speakers (see the first few posts). That sounds nice. Might run short on speakers after a while...Like sh... |
