Review: Myryad MDP-500 Surround Pre What a nightmare! : ( They are designed in England and manufactured by SRS( Flextronics) in Finland. I do belive that they have had some bad experiences with cheaper processors made in asia. But that´s a long time ago. Had myself a problem with mi... | |
Best way to hear sonic signature of a cable? Newbee - I think you are missing out on a big bit. You should use the new cable for a week or so ( as you suggest ). Put back the old IC ( as you suggest ) - listen for a couple of minutes. THEN swap back to the new cable. That´s when you hear the... | |

Process: Very tiny plastic granulate is poured into an "oven", there it is melted, poured onto a small platter and just before the plastic sets again a "master-copy" is pressed ( mirrored ) over the platter.

Why do they always play so loud in hifi showrooms? Well, they ain´t fooling no one telling me that they have to play it that loud so you won´t be bothered by other demoes in nearby rooms. We´re not there for critical listening, just getting an impression of new stuff ( in shows ). And most of the ... | |
Aurum Cantus ....anyone heard them? Tried them in various set-ups. The ribbon tweeter is magic. Absolutely magic. But to make it sing like it´s supposed to I would recommend power. Lots. ML 432 was a really good match IMO. The 5" bass driver does make the Hz to make the leap to the ... | |
Rotel 1075 5-Channel + Rotel 1068 pre/processor Go for Signal Cable. I would recommend the Magic Powercord on all components. Not costing you a fortune, you´ll be happy with the bass response this PC will give you. For Ic´s and Speaker there is a wide range to fit your needs. BTW - Let the gear... | |

Why do mass marketed CD's sound so crappy? Considering a CD takes 2secs to press ( including cooling ), and the ´master-copy´ looses detail on every press ( can take 2-10K of cycles ), your lucky if you get one of the first ones off the press, as the rest will decrease in quality. Buy two ... | |
What time do you wear? Never wears a watch. Watches and time is all over the place. Do I really need one on me? After 30 years of not wearing one, can´t say I miss it.M |
