| microlaminate as isolation micro laminate: panzerholzoriginally designed in WWII timelines, as Panzer Tank bullet proof armour. | |
| Balanced to RCA even if it is stated that pin 3 should be left open, that’s an invitation to residual captive flutter on the open pin, which will make the highs simultaneously darker and more extended. The flutter of residual capacitance on the open pin will modu... | |
| Vishay resisitors gold point and, if I an interpreting correctly..expensive custom value vishay foil resistors? I’ve done it with other high grade non-magnetic resistors, but not custom foil values. I say custom as IIRC, you’d have to spec them, as the catalogue do... | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow It might be said that the physics of all the requisite aspects of a perfected speaker, all disagree with one another. Which tends to complicate any given build, into the given form of compromises... that the given builder may have chosen. Speakers... | |
| Difference in sound between copper and silver digital cables? I read of willie’s experience in builds and tests. I’ve done the same, of course, as we at Teo --build cables. Geometry becomes the 3d complex field, and the cable itself is dealing with the delineation of the transient edges (square wave edge del... | |
| Velcro on Wilson Audio Sophias diffraction pad When dealing with aging synthetic rubbers and the like: plasticizer outgassing/migration. One might say that all plastics are 'moving' in this fashion (like glass not being a solid but a slow moving fluid), and the best alter/change state very slo... | |
| Wide baffle speakers are better than narrow With a few neurons engaged, it should come as no surprise that vocals are best reproduced by a speaker with an average width of an average human head. | |
| Strange film on new records. More Re-animator, I would think. But then again, he may be crying continually, the fluid might appear alien, and make noises as loud as a train. | |
| Getting GIKed! In my room it is all about the corners It is always about the corners..... It is a many bodied problem with multiple interactions, inputs, and outputs, which is why it can be so difficult to get a handle on it. Audio gear is the same. The interac... | |
| Strange film on new records. Acetone will melt most, if not all vinyls (there are multiple versions/types of 'vinyl'), so probably not the best idea.... | |
| Another s/pdif digital cable thread The adapters cause jitter/reflection/mismatch/non-uniformity problems. Likely they cause more problems than just RCA to RCA on both ends. So, no BNC connected cable, with adapters, just go pure RCA. For RCA, goe RCA to RCA. For BNC, go BNC to BNC... | |
| Yamaha C-4 and Wells Audio Majestic help I completely recapped a C-4, the phono section of it is no slouch. Not the best but nothing to throw out of your audio bed.It should be, sound quality wise... behave and be heard as if it is an adjustable outboard phono stage. Meaning, less any e... | |
| Best IC and SC used under 1000 dollars for my system? clarity audio or audio sensibility and one of the lower priced Teo Audio interconnects. As for the speaker cables....If I did not have access to our own speaker cables (not gonna fit the budget, here), I would use Clarity cable (speaker cable) or ... | |
| What Would You Do with a Sealed, 1st Press Miles Davis "Kind of Blue"? The word sealed is in contradiction to you being able to inspect the disc. Disc inspection inherently means open. So, no, not sealed, then. |
