| Reference DACS: An overall perspective Marti, have you consider just experimenting and finding out what setting you enjoy the best? You can't break the machine no matter what settings you select. . . let us know your findings. | |
| Review: Machina dynamica Brilliant Pebbles Tweak I am not surprised Wellfed, the power of self-hypnosis is in fact rather astonishing. | |
| Whatever happened to Straight Wire? Hmm, I visited the site and found statements like:"Reduction in electron group velocity distribution and quantum mechanical effects are presently considered the leading candidates."Sounds VERY 'impressively scientific' without saying much of anyth... | |
| Whatever happened to Straight Wire? Musicman, Platinum being a good conductor of electricity is an urban legend. . . Even Iron is a better conductor than Platinum. Here are some resistivity figures:Silver: (20 °C) 15.87 nO·mCopper: (20 °C) 16.78 nO·m Gold: (20 °C) 22.14 nO·mAluminum... | |
| Whatever happened to Straight Wire? What are the interesting characteristics of Platinum? | |
| Not Another NuForce thread...... My apologies Tda2200 and all for my spectron/Nuforce confusion, I should remember not to post on any matters of substance unless I have had enough sleep. Glad you enjoy the Linn Klimax Solos. Unfortunately I find Linn sometimes to be a little exhu... | |
| Not Another NuForce thread...... Are you referring to Spectron Musician 3 SE V.2? What's the technology underlying the Linn Climax Solos? | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Thank you Downunder, I definitely concur about sounding even better with front grilles removed. I am still running with woofers facing out. Tonight I'll try to reduce toein to just a couple of degrees: with about 7 or 8 degrees staging is very goo... | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Hi Micahel, could you please elaborate on 'better'. . . Could you describe the audible effect of having the woofers facing outwards rather than inwards? | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Hi Marco, JRDG Model 7Ms are 1989 class A/B balanced vintage furnaces. . . not class D at all. They deliver a stout 350W into 8 Ohms and about 700 into 4Ohms; max continuous current is 50A and damping factor is over 300 between 20Hz and 20Khz. Qui... | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Thanks guys, the speakers are brand new. Purchased them from Sumiko on accommodation. prob of course is that Sumiko is in Berkeley and I am in the middle of Texas.I will probably switch places of the two speakers and have woofers pointed inwards b... | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Hi Marco, rest of system is TEAC X-01 Limited, ARC Ref 3, JRDG 7M monoblocks, Audioquest Sky XLR, Cardas Golden Ref Speaker wires, Shunyata Anaconda Helix Alpha on X-01, Purist Anniv on Ref 3. | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Hi Dave, unfortunately Soundings is in Denver and I live in Austin (TX). No budget for professional placement I fear. My case is going to be one of Do-ItYourself placement. Has Soundings published a placement methodology.? | |
| On The Feeding And Care Of Vienna Mahlers Hey Marco, sorry missing you as well! I agree completely about subs on Vienna speakers. In my view neither the Beethoven Baby Grands nor the Mahler remotely require a sub. . . . totally satisfying without one. By the way, last year's Soundings / R... | |
| Vienna Acoustics Mahlers too big for my room? having fallen in love with Vienna Acoustic Mahlers at RMAF 2006, I have ordered a pair this last Summer, and received them in early November 2007. I have now started a thread to chronicle their break in and discuss various Mahler related matters..... |
