| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Guidocorona, we are not trying to set the world on fire, only start a flame in a few minds or hearts. I don't think it's productive for Machina Dynamica to focus much on trying to change people's opinions - to convert them, so to speak, as you sug... | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Guidocorona - while I am pleased you're considering evaluating the CLC, I respectfully decline your terms on the principle that it would be unfair to my customers who did agree to my terms, which are quite reasonable as they stand. We also do not ... | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Zaikesman: now I'm starting to see why the British have the expression, "As mad as a clockwork orange." :-)GK | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Guidocorona - thanks for the kind words - we aim to please.~ GK | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Dgplo - that stinks! | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Qdrone - Actually, the Tice clocks did not employ cryogenics, but another "proprietary process." Below is (part of) Tice's statement in letter to Stereophile a while back (1991):"Regarding your comments on extra circuitry, no extra circuits have b... | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? Audioaril, I have learned by my experience with you not to disseminate any information over the phone in confidence. ~ Geoff | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Guidocorona - Ya got me! I thought you were the one that couldn't spell, but it was I.... Good one!Jadem6 - Excellent reaction! - the feeling is quite mutual, btw. You must not get out much...Seurat - of course, one might ask why the gravitational... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Guidocorona - seismic vibrations are the energetic waves that travel along the surface of the Earth that are produced by movement of the Earth's crust, especially along fault lines -- not only earthquakes, but less intense, continuous motion ("mic... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Seurat - Machina Dynamica (my company) currently makes 3 isolation devices, the most complex of which is Nimbus Sub-Hertz Platform, a pneumatic (air spring) type device. The Promethean and Nirvana are mechanical spring type devices. Nimbus is a fl... | |
| Isolation of my chair, am I crazy??? Have had good results with super dh cones and or dh squares under couch and chest of drawers in the room in customer's room; IMO no question that the furniture resonates, esp. with suspended wood floor... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? J-badov - It appears you have your concepts of isolation and I have mine. Nothing wrong with that and I agree, no need for pissing contest. There are many ways to skin a cat. I designed Nimbus platform, a 6 DOF sub 1.0 Hz device about 8 years ago.... | |
| What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock? Clever Little Clock review hot off press at:http://www.videohifi.com/18_la_pulce6.htmif help needed translating, email me...~ cheers | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? I would use abs. minimum no. of bladders (of correct geometry) -- that is one sure way to lower resonant frequency and improve performance...fluids in bladders could overdamp things... haven't tried it, might be worth a shot, but generally don't l... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? j-badov, the equivalent performance (resonant frequency) for the VP would be obtained by simultaneously *reducing* the mass and reducing the spring rate of the thin-skin bladders. Therefore, by inspection, mass cannot be the *key* to the design of... |
