| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I suppose you found this...http://jeffsplace.me/wordpress/?p=3794.Let us know how it all finishes out. You could use direct mechanical coupling methods for all these flat stack components as they are attached to the mother board. I would not mount... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers Gary I don't think Norm was kidding about the polishing effects whether brass or stainless. Much of the information travels on the skin of the material so keeping them shiny bright is a benefit. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil BillHave you direct mechanically coupled the parts as we spoke about? The inductors could be dipped in the Cascade material we discussed and allowed to harden. Tom | |
| High End Novum PMR Premium MKII Reactance like a cymbal. Screw several of their TT record weights on the wall, that would be interesting and make for a difference. I have tried this before with some other devices of similar material but different shape and it could be dramatic. ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil BillMaybe the inductor change worked for you and not for me because your speakers have no level matching requirements.If the inductor gauge of the Solens were both 16 gauge and the North Creeks were both 10 gauge it seems that any DCR difference w... | |
| Seeking more 3d imaging, deeper/wider soundstage All my brain tissue and nerve endings tell me that when I am at a live music venue that I don't see and hear the depth of field that sometimes is played back in my home. With all my latest devices and resonance grounding methods I see and hear a g... | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? His name was Anthony. We shared some conversation about these speakers,cables and resonance grounding methods and platforms.Super nice man. His presence here will be missed. Tom | |
| Anyone hear the Caravelle speaker and not like it? Ray,I still have mine and love them. I have done a few mods the next will be outboard crossovers. Waiting to complete the rebuild of my power amps and audition those before I do the overhaul of the crossovers.Tom.SST | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers Some things are worth repeating. Tom | |
| Seeking more 3d imaging, deeper/wider soundstage I will continue like energy always in search of ground. Tom | |
| Seeking more 3d imaging, deeper/wider soundstage I wish there was an individual block from view setting that I could implement on Audiogon that would save me from anything Bo Bo posts. Like hitting the mute button when the neo-cons open their mouths. Tom | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? NormIn my first post about this subject the first paragraph referred to the DQ10's which were a break thru in in time aligned and phase aligned speakers. When Jon used separate baffles he may have only by chance hit upon a way to reduce unwanted v... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Norm The Nextel paint finish and the flocking material on the entire front speaker baffle are control materials. Both materials seal a bad sounding mdf cabinet from venting its form of bad sound into a listening room. These 2 materials sonically m... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? NormI think Jon Dahlquist was a mechanical engineer and may have been aware of the swamp of vibrations you refer to. The fact that part of his crossover though mounted on the top of the cabinet was a step ahead by not being hammered inside of the ... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers There is a big difference between a large high mass highly reactive speaker cabinet in comparison to an amplifier, power conditioner or any electronic component. In many situations the 1.5" AP will sound better than the two inch version however th... |
