| Furman SMP is NOT real series mode surge technology! I can't and don't want to try to speak for Erik here, but thank you for that run down on some relevant info. This part of the hobby has long been operating in the dark, ever since its inception by the likes of Tice and Richard Grey, and makers are... | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology I'm far from the last word on AMT's and agree that little if anything should ever be prejudged in audio. OTOH, I just think it also is at least of some benefit to have as broad of a technical discussion as one is willing to entertain in a forum wi... | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology He's connected with Arion Audio, in Charlotte. I'm not trying to attack anybody at this point, I'm just hoping to get some clarification of what it was he meant to say, is all.Regards | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology @arion "IMHO, I wouldn't get caught up in what they are made from or whether the substrate is Mylar, Kapton or cardboard. Go experience a pair. Only you know if they are right for you." Mike, FWIW, I had no intention of saying that 'only I know wh... | |
| Remasters - are they better? What exactly is it? @jaybe Oh I know. My post was a little tongue in cheek | |
| Remasters - are they better? What exactly is it? I have noticed though, that when I buy the original version, it turns out that the remaster was better. Whenever I buy the remaster, it turns out the original was better. ….hmmm.... | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology No sweat, I can answer all your ATM needs.... :>) | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology Dyslexia is known to strike at random, but it's rare that you see it so consistently when it does. | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology FWIW, I took a peek at Wharfedale’s site and the Former shown in the exploded diagram of their AMT didn’t look familiar to me. It appears to be a yellow colored material and may possibly (I’m guessing here) be a more recent attempt to come up with... | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology In general, ribbon tweeters may sometimes have that last nth degree of uber detail or resolution compared to ATM's, but not by much at all. The difference may only make it a little easier to blend ATM's with the mid or woofer compared to ribbon. R... | |
| I'm looking to learn about Air Motion Transformer technology AMT's are great designs IF you pay some attention to one thing. It is by far best for sound quality if the Diaphragm Former is made, as it usually is in any good design, from a silk material. The Former provides the physical support structure for ... | |
| Mapleshade...where's the love? Pierre and his partner in crime (can't recall his name now) have done a great job in documenting what might well be the last gasp of a lot of the also aging artists they've recorded over the last few decades from their Baltimore area location, par... | |
| TUBE or SS PATHS There are no audio paths through which "nothing" is ever added that wasn't part of the original signal. Vinyl, tubes, transistors, tape, digital, wiring - you name it - all of it can be said to color the sound to one degree or another. It's simply... | |
| Why HiFi manufacturers don't make active crossovers anymore? @bache to be honest, it's really the good quality power treatments that have allowed me to be this unique. | |
| Why HiFi manufacturers don't make active crossovers anymore? In my case I use some pricey power treatments (more than $10k), but it improves everything about my system's sound and allows me to consider less expensive gear that others might overlook. I'm building a system with active 3-ways around some inexp... |
