Here is where you, our readers, can comment on matters of mutual interest. A1: I managed to get a magnificent 3D soundstage, along with pinpoint imaging, from a pair of properly set-up Harbeth – ‘HL Compact’ (now 7ES-3 XD) loudspeakers many years ago in a smallish room. There are certain models within some loudspeaker brands […]

PS AUDIO / Paul McGowan And continuing our thought from a recent post, only this time in reverse, isn’t it obvious that just because something has all the right stuff it doesn’t necessarily qualify as great itself? And doesn’t this observation help explain one of the age old mysteries in audio about how something can […]
Paul McGowan writes: The easiest way to picture how a bipole loudspeaker is configured is to imagine two full range Monopole speaker boxes back-to-back. Sound comes out of both the front and the back of the combined boxes in this configuration and, if you connect them in-phase (red to red and black to black) you […]

Here is where you, our readers, can comment on matters of mutual interest. A1: My favorite group is a folk/jazz group from the 70s, Pentangle and it turned out to be my first lesson in how badly mastering can foul up a wonderful recording. The Pentangle was the 1st non-classical recording reviewed by Gordon Holt […]
In a currently running thread on a certain RIAA / Line stage beginning with the letter “E”, some very provocative comments were made that are of a general nature. I fear that this conversation will be lost on the many individuals who have soured on the direction which that particular thread has taken. For the […]
They say ….. The TR-5 S2 focuses around a new crossover and an improved internal layout. The crossover uses improved and modified electrical components and large low-impedance air core voice-coils on a double-sided PCB. Meanwhile, the cabinet internals have been re-designed and feature a high-absorption internal damping material. The TR-5 S2 retains the same drivers […]
PS AUDIO / Paul McGowan One hundred years ago, three seminal events of 1923 changed the world forever: The first commercial radio station in the United States, KDKA in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania was launched while in that same year, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) began its radio programs. On the recording side, 1923 saw the Victor […]

Following my post about cable damage, it occurs to me that there is an opportunity for an interesting experiment. We’ve all seen the techno-wizard’s proof that cables make zero difference. They routinely put a cable on the AP and under real world conditions show that what goes in comes out the other end. I am certain their […]

PAUL McGOWAN: ’ll continue with the story of the invention of an electronically scalable room but today wanted to tell you about something I’ve been listening to that has me running around the PS offices grabbing whomever I can to come and listen.

Dr. JM Willsden-Green writes … A manufacturer of electrostatic loudspeakers formed by designer James C. Strickland in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA in 1973. First product was shipped in 1976 in the form of the Model X, a hybrid electrostatic/dynamic loudspeaker that featured a built in valve based servo amplifier and a year later the company […]

A1: I use 2 old Monarchy anti jitter boxes between a Cambridge CD drive and a GeorgeMark Audio line stage/DAC(MSB board inside. and I definitely hear improvement with the reclocking. The second box is noticeable but certainly less than a single Monarchy. […]

We are told …. In the world of analogue audio, there’s little doubt that a system’s sonic performance can be markedly constrained or improved by the quality of its various cables. But when it comes to digital audio, could there be even more to play for? Computer Audio Design’s (CAD) Scott Berry believes so, and […]
