    Audio Note UK vs Audio Japan Sonic Differences

The crossovers, detail coordination still in progress (see photo) were probably an individually elaborate project. A listening impression was made at the Dutch AN-UK importer. Rainer...

    Furutech Bulk Power Cable

    What are you doing about EMI/RFI?

    Hello, When using folding ferrites, please make sure that they are taut / tight around the cable, the perfectly fitting diameter is therefore important. Loose ferrites on the other hand are ineffective to ineffective. Regards Rainer

    The cars you have loved, or are in love with. Tell us your car history and what each one taught you

    Most of the cars presented here are sports or extreme sports cars, so I like to present my cars with the best finish as an alternative: VW Phaeton. When the wooden flaps with motors moved in front of the air vents, that was interesting to see every time, then you looked again at a continuous...

    Good morning Stephan, the newer Terzian III are small, but present incredibly (powerful and fine-drawing at the same time). The stands are a feast for the eyes, but difficult to photograph so you can understand their design. Viele Grüße von Rainer
