| Douglas Self on Negative feedback and distortion Hammy & Marakanetz: I'm somewhere between the two of you. That is, i believe that you CAN hear specs, if the tests are performed in the proper manner and ALL the spec's are taken into consideration and properly interpreted. Having said that, P... | |
| How do YOU find the hole? I was able to find the info that i needed on one arm, but not on the other ( so far ). Since it is an OEM Pioneer arm off of a vintage table, i don't know if i'll ever be able to find it. I do appreciate the responses and suggestions though. Sean> | |
| I'd like to buy a cd recorder . Please help. Lngbruno: That's encouraging to hear that the TDK held up that well. I have a different model than what you do though as i think that mine is older than the one you mentioned. The model that i have is a DA-3826, which seems to work fine although i... | |
| X250 Isolation? Thanks for the response. I appreciate your explaining your process too.. Sean> | |
| Tube power amp - keep on continually? Aroc's comparison between tubes heating down and an engine heating down makes for a pretty good anology. Both have built in design tolerances, both require specific clearances / spacing for optimum operation, both are made up of a complex sum of p... | |
| Ham Radio Interference from next door neighboor Topvideo, i was only joking but i appreciate the offer. I want to stick somewhere reasonably close to where i am now. I couldn't afford to move all of my audio gear that far : ) Sean> | |
| Ham Radio Interference from next door neighboor Glad to hear it. Since that guy moved out, and i'm looking for a house, mind telling me where you're located??? Take my word for it, that guy had a "little" transmitter compared to what i've got : ) Sean> | |
| Tube equipment use in high altitude? Gs: The "tubed" ICBM's don't sound quite as "shrill" sounding as they whistle by you... : ) Sean> | |
| Why do only US makers focus on time coherency? Dawgbyte: What thread appr 1 week ago was discussing the Walsh driver? I somehow missed that one. Sean> | |
| Douglas Self on Negative feedback and distortion I think that what Audioengr was getting at is that there are loop-holes to every generalization. That is, something can deliver flat response over a wide bandwidth at a given amplitude on a steady-state basis, but that doesn't mean that it will re... | |
| Douglas Self on Negative feedback and distortion You're asking the right questions. I haven't read his books but i've seen enough quotes from them and read enough on his website to know that he and i don't see eye to eye on too many subjects.I will say that to achieve ultra-wide bandwidth with e... | |
| How Much Time do You Surf on Audiogon? While i'd like to respond to comments directed back at my previous statements, my 15 minutes per day is just about up : )Slappy: what a beautiful job you did of describing someone's mouth. YECH.... : ) PS... It CRACKED me up : ) Sean> | |
| Is this why my analog rig isn't so hot? Raul: Your observations about the people having top-end problems with Benz cartridges were using tube based gear from what i can recall. Good observation on that one, but i can't agree with your comments about the Denon 103. My personal experience... | |
| X250 Isolation? Out of curiosity Mitch, what type of devices did you end up with under the Pass? That's a pretty heavy amp and i'm wondering what you found to do the job. Sean> | |
| Advice: spare channels for bi-wiring I'm doing the same thing i.e. 2 channel amp for the mains and 5 channel amp for the center and surrounds. I'm using my two spare channels for subs, which works out great for me. If you don't have subs or the subs that you have are active ( built-i... |
