| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? Look, even though everything has not been determined yet(maybe), there are definititely at least SOME measurable differences in some cables(resistance, capacitance, inductance, dielectric, shielding) which HAVE been PROVEN to have effects on the s... | |
| Blind Power Cord Test & results There is a logical train of reasoning going on here. We hear a repeatable thing, and look for reasons why it is a repeatable thing. But, just because we have not found many reasons why yet, is no cause to dismiss it.My link to the Bumblebee storyh... | |
| Cary 300B SET Mono's ? My personal opinion is that you should take a look at Sun Audio SET amplifiers or Jeff Korneff SET amplifiers.Make sure that you get some good output transformers, like Tamura or Tango. | |
| Blind Power Cord Test & results You know, scientists say that bumblebees can't fly, and that from a technical perspective it is impossible. Yet, bumblebees fly all the time. Perhaps we need to do some A/B/X testing to see if we actually are seeing bumblebees fly, or if they are ... | |

| Sleeper preamps: $500 new/used Sometimes you can find a used MFA Magus for around $500-$600.Phono stage is excellent, with 46db gain, plug-in resistor loadable.Linestage is very good, with 20db gain.Phono stage has 1 12AX7 per channel.Line input has 1 12AT7.Main output is 1 692... | |
| Is the Teres a Well Jean, I'm glad you're fighting it too.I've been on the bandwagon for over 20 years now.I admit that my focus has been on belt drive tables for virtually all of this time, and I've been trying to look at ways to solve their problems, and with ... | |
| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? On another thread, member Aball mentioned that the French and German governments are collaborating on a research project to find out why there are differences between what is currently measured, and what is heard.Apparently, according to what Abal... | |
| Blind Power Cord Test & results I'd suggest this approach.Amongst the audiophile community, there is a very significant statistical majority that there are audible differences in cables. These are people who have done all kinds of listening tests in their home environments, and ... | |

| Is the Teres a Regarding the Teres and the subject of PRaT, I was a Linn LP12/Ittok/Karma or Asak owner for about 11 years, worked as the analog set-up man at some high-end shops which sold Linn tables(and others), was taught LP12 setup by Ivor, and probably kno... | |

| What is the magic behind SET Some of the technical aspects of SET amps that many people appreciate, are pure class A operation, simple signal path, very linear amplification devices(triodes), and almost totally 2nd order harmonic distortion profile.This typically leads to a v... | |
| Spikes versus wall coupling After reading this thread, I'm totally at a loss for words.Have fun. | |
| Wall mountable, Circular Transmission Line Speaker The Cornu is a spiral multi-cellular horn speaker design.It is not a transmission line system.It has the advantages of using the wall boundary to good effect, as well as providing the rear-horn reinforcement of the lower frequencies(which is neede... |
