| Richard Green room tune? I agree, most people when trying to deal with a room put in way too much absorption. Most recording studios do too. I think that is one reason most live recordings have an energy that most studio recordings lack.If you look at the Eighth Nerve pro... | |
| Richard Green room tune? Trelja, you are correct that the Michael Green and the first generation Eighth Nerve products are very similar. The second generation Eighth Nerve stuff uses the same idea but is more effective. The idea behind these products is to trap the energy... | |
| Richard Green room tune? Eighth Nerve has a new line out that works even better.Check out http://www.eighthnerve.com | |
| Can metal chassis become defective? I No doubt a good dose of dht will put you on another plane. I currently have a 71A driving a 300B that I home brewed. The 45 is a nice tube but a bit polite for my tastes and I wanted just a bit more oomph. | |
| Can metal chassis become defective? I Mint, I apologize for questioning your previous assessments of 78 records. It is apparent from your last two posts that you have an inside line on audio reproduction that the rest of us can never hope to achieve.On a side note, please email me the... | |
| Isolated or Balanced Power on Line Conditioner? Are you sure it is an either/or situation? If it will do balanced then it is probably using a transformer which would also mean it is isolated. It is more likely a choice between isolated and unbalanced OR isolated and balanced.What conditioner is... | |
| Single Driver Horn vs Multi driver efficient spker I assume you mean lack of punch and dynamics in the bass. You are correct that you will never get that from a single driver. You don't list your driver but Lowthers and the like are very dynamic once you get above 60 Hz or so. If you are otherwise... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes Sorry for the confusion, I meant $500 for a full set of tubes, power supply and phonocorrector. | |
| Hum in system when only amp is on It is not a problem if the system does not hum in normal operation. Since you would never operate the system with just the amp on and not the preamp the question is moot. Most amps will hum loudly if you pull the IC out of the preamp and touch the... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes Thanks for the offer Ethannn, that is a very kind and civilized thing to do. I will contact you via email. | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes JaFox, now that I think about it, the tube thing was the reason I got rid of it. It was getting the point of needing tubes and a factory set was $500 for a single PS unit. Getting into tube rolling was beyond my means at the time and even a stock ... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes Wel Jafox, if the LP2 is audiophile crap and your IO is worse you must be feeling pretty silly about spending all of that money :>)I once had an IO but that was a while ago and it was a single power supply older unit in a completely different s... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes So now you have switched from being a condescending jerk to being a patronizing jerk? You did indeed directly use the insults I cited. " Defiantly the ignorance is blessing" was not calling me ignorant? "That was a titanic intellectual battle on y... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes So far you have called me an audio zombie, described me as ignorant, dismissed my powers of observation as being inadequate, questioned my intellectual capabilities, characterized me as swimming in shallow audiophile waters, observed that trying t... | |
| Lamm LP2 and WE417A tubes You deceived us by pretending to be someone else, directing our attention to an article and not revealing that you had written it. This deception would lead us to be believe that the opinions stated were not only yours but were also held by others... |
