| Phono pre "Break-In" process? Necessary? Break-in time unfortunately is a necessary evil. A freshly built amplifier will sound quite differently say.. 3 or 4 weeks later. It is centered around chemical changes that happen when power is applied to a given circuit or system to include inte... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... roguemodel – your statement cannot be more accurate or appropriate…including your deduction. Atmasphere...I thought audio waves moved at the speed of sound, and light waves moved at the speed of light? This is the kind of crap I'm talking about. ... | |
| Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp? Thank you Tim,I know most audiophiles would not make the connection between an amp with low distortion (.005%) and one with no distortion. On the surface you would think it would just sound a little better. Like taking out a little residual distor... | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Ivan,switching out between single-ended and balanced has no longer made an audible difference, under my roof This is an interesting observation which can mean one of two things.1. You have very good gear with not too much of a problem with externa... | |
| Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp? timlub,You mentioned - a ton of digital correcting done to the signal on the front end. I'm not sure if you were referring to the amplifier design. It is a pure analog design. There is no digital circuitry involved.RogerHere is correct link..ww... | |
| wattage Believe it or not - there is far more problems in the electronics than in the transducers. (mic or speaker)The inability to locate a sound object when played through a "system" is 90% the fault of the amplifying equipment. Localizing cues naturall... | |
| wattage For more information...This link should take you to the white paper on distortion and timing issues...http://h-cat.com/whitepaper.htmlRoger | |
| wattage Yes it does. See the white paper on distortion.There is a link at www.h-cat.comThe "punch" is diffused by very small changes in velocity.This spreads the energy of a percussion event over time.Roger | |
| wattage Brauser - you are exactly right. The amount of power (watts) needed to give the impression of adequate sound pressure levels is less than you think. If the signal applied to your loudspeakers is not phase coherent, it will seem to lack "punch". If... | |
| "Audio Gone" question for Audiogon experts Chances are that if it has a "Tape Monitor" switch but you don't own a tape device and never use those switches, it gives you that exact symptom. The audio has to go through the TM buttons all the time. Not using them typically causes one or both ... | |
| Holographic imaging Ok folks,Nevermind. I'm out of here.Roger | |
| Holographic imaging Duke,If I may clarify You have an artist playing a guitar in a studio the sound vibrations from the stings are traveling away from the guitar toward the microphone through the medium of AIR. The velocity of travel is for this segment is Mach One... | |
| Holographic imaging "The speed of sound in air is always varies depending on air pressure, elevation, temperature and humidity."Atmasphere,Yes this is true and I beleive I tried to indicate as much with my addition of "(Ignoring long term changes in temperature, humi... | |
| Holographic imaging I would like to make one more point if I can and then I think I will pretty much give up. I am not trying force my opinion or concepts on anyone. I do think that If there was perhaps a more proper way to explain it that we would all be on the sa... | |
