While I can’t tell you why designers other than our own like to extend amplifier bandwidth into the ultrasonic regions I can explain why we do. It’s called the Rule of 10. The rule of 10 is a lofty engineering goal that simply states we should strive to build products with 10 times the required […]
“The question reflects my ears telling me that my little ol’ hi fi sounds more dynamic, detailed and with more accessible low level information when the sun is shining ie at average room temps. around 20-25c. Could this be the drivers wobbling more freely when warmer?. Or is it the feelgood factor?” MORE
I’ve seen this question posed several times. I just purchased my first completely recapped/refurbed amp/receiver. It’s a Pioneer SX-939. I can truthfully say I’ve never heard anything better. Period. Matched with my KLH Model 23’s the music just came alive in a way that I can’t explain and have never heard before. The soundstage was […]
“Looking for the HOLY GRAIL in Audio? Here it is. I’m in my early sixties and retiring to my final system, which I was going to purchase during the past twelve months and decided to put on the brakes, and investigate whats out there as the most advanced engineered high end audio products for the […]
It has been multiple decades—in fact, most of our adult lives—that neither Terri nor I have consumed meat or fish. To many Americans we encounter we are an anomaly, a curiosity to be poked and prodded to see if we are real. We both giggle when we get that knowing wink of disbelief from a […]
No doubt you’ve heard terms like class A, push pull, , SET, full complimentary, single ended etc. These terms all refer to how we use an amplification device rather than the amplification device itself (like a tube or transistor). Many of us have also heard that tubes produce a warmer sound due to the fact […]
AC power is a complicated subject if quality is to be considered. The number of problems needing attention includes regulation, removal of noise, guarding against surges and spikes, lowering of impedance, isolation, restoring missing energy, attaining the correct level, uncontaminated grounds, ensuring there is enough current (both dynamic and steady state) for the job. What […]
The goal of psychoacoustics is to understand how people perceive and experience sound. This can be at a low level; for example, we might want to understand how accurately you can locate a sound source, or we might want to measure the smallest change in sound level you can detect. We can also work at […]
Terry wrote to us recently as follows and we are delighted to publish his text here. Thank you Terry. Hi there… Just registered. I searched for Gale on your site and found some great info. I’ve just restored a pair of 401a’s and your readers may be interested in how it worked out. Process documented […]
I don’t think it matters. Play what you like, what you want to hear right at that minute. Or what people ask for…. This is what we ended up playing on the Quads at Scalford earlier this year ….. Dip in and out HERE
