Gary, thanks for the info. the Audio Critic measured response indicted a higher -3dB point, and Sao Win's announcement then of a forthcoming subwoofer (right when I dropped out of audio) lead me to believe one was designed & released. I also think I remember someone telling me about a TAS or...
Actually not hunting as I have a Meridian preamp. I'm writing a history of modern design that differs significantly from the standard texts. Functionality takes precedence over appearance. The standard texts are particularly deficient in consumer electronics and just awful in high fidelity...
Andre,
Thank you! This unit is actually in my database however I completely forgot that it was such an excellent value. I'm going to move it to the correct group right now before I've had a chance to forget.
Best,

From the description it seems as though it would. However I'm researching products for a definitive history of modern design. The standard histories have shortcomings I plan to address. The worst area is consumer electronics, particularly audio. Any products I include must have substantial...
Actually it's a history of modern design. However as the conventional histories get it almost entirely wrong with regards to consumer electronics I am paying special attention in this area and in particular with high-fidelity.
Too funny, well how often are you mistaken for Superman? Too bad about the specs. I looked at the website and just assumed some technical reviewer somewhere would have put this on a bench because it does seem very clever.
Gary,
Thanks for the info. Dr Win does seem to have vanished. I know at one point he released a subwoofer to match w/ the SM-10 & SM-8 but so far have found no info about it. I'm working on a history project, thus the interest.
Thanks again,
Terry
Theophile, thanks for the heads up. Interesting & I think a clever design; I'll google for test measurements. Sounds as though you are quite happy with it. What type of guitar do you play? best, Terry
Looking around the least expensive high-quality non-DIY active preamps I've found are:
* Cambridge Audio DAC Magic Plus $599
* Emotiva XDA-2 w/ DAC $399
Both are very good & very good value however does anyone know of a high quality active analog line-stage (no phono needed) with a very...
Hi all,
I came across a few items that got my attention and thought to pass them on here:
These designs by NWavguy are meant to equal the performance (not the build quality) of Benchmark DAC/Pre / headphone amp
