| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question >>I thought I was being helpful in the past by recommending what I thought was a good way to get great sound and save money. You were.>>Sorry if I offended anyone, or if anyone thinks I gave them a bum steer.I don't think anybody think... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Marco>>Could you expand on the "glowing phallus" part?! And you like those magnum size "sparkling bottles" too! Sometimes a pipe is just a pipe.I remain, | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question >>BTW, I don't feel at all guilty about using exotics. The denser the better, and I am not in the least worried about ants, termites, fire, or any of that goofy crap.Hi Joe: The way the statement is structured it is a little hard to tell but... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Tastes great!No! less filling.Tastes great!!No you idiot, less filling!!!I remain, | |
| Say it aint so--- Teres quality question Angus Black's Teres Review mentioned aboveHe doesn't seem to upset about it. He says " The table just continues to amaze day after day" and calls the other stuff minor issues. I've never seen any audio product (or any product for that matter) that... | |
| Clueless and Seeking advice on TT purchase Thanks all:Well the Scout looks like the off-the-shelf favorite and the Teres diy route looks like it may be the "best" overall. I've been following your thread Joe and a few others at the Teres site. I've talked to Tom a bit too so I know the val... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Tubes su** the big one! They look like glowing phalluses and I think that is the biggest attraction! I dont know about you but I dont need no stinking glowing phallus sticken out of my amp! Especially the whimpering SET crowd, the biggest bunch ... | |
| Anyone reccommend books on Tuners? I second the book "Basic Electronics" above. It's not a general electronics book. It is aimed at audio/radio circuits and has a lot of tube circuits too. It has entire chapters on receivers and tuned circuits. It is dealing with radio communicatio... | |
| Metal speakers. How are they? Hi:I've heard the W18E001 woofers in two different speakers that were really excellent. I agree with Greg above that cone materials obviously make a big difference. http://www.ellisaudio.com/1801.htmhttp://www.madisound.com/thor.htmlPersonally, I ... | |
| Teres update Hi Joe thanks for the great pictures and the laugh (the holidays! Thanks to the vinyl God that it's finally over. Now I can get back to work on my turntable.) hehe.Fun to watch your progress.CheersI remain, | |
| The best wall construction I agree with Narchy. Rives is a good place to start. He has a forum on acoustics too:Rives Acoustics ForumI helped a friend build one wall to enclose a listening room and he did not want to get too exotic. We just double layered the drywall, put s... | |
| Power Cords Snake Oil ?? Well I doubt if I qualify as a "circuit head" but I always thought basic circuitry (electromagnetisms, fields, etc) was physics. Silly me.Lets see Corona. First you resort to "string theory", a theory that has almost no practical application and i... | |
| What is the theory behind Digital Power cords? Obviously String Theory.Ask Corona. He is pioneer and visionary in the field -A virtual "Wright Brothers" of power cords.SincerelyI remain, | |
| Phase inverted..why? said above >>However, if the solution to the phase inversion problem is to reverse the speaker cable polarity, why don't the manufacturers just wire the output that way in the amp.said above >>Wouldn't reversing the internal wires to t... | |
| Phase inverted..why? Generally, the most commonly used tube circuits used to amplify voltage invert phase. That is, the input (voltage swing at tube's grid) and the output (voltage swing at tube's plate) are inverted. This is just the way it works. Notice at the link ... |
