    Lol, we are already in our castle! Most people would see it as a modest house. We actually downsized. Easier to clean and maintain.

    I'm not a trader. I intend to never sell, except to satisfy needs and wants. My wife told me about a cartoon she saw recently. 10 years ago: A holder of securities was living in a nice house, a holder of Bitcoin was living in a shack. Today: Both the holder of securities and Bitcoin live in...

    EMIA Elmaformer (volume control) review

    I had thought long and hard about the Lamm. Its main positive for me is that it has an XLR input. I need to run 30’ ic. Jeffrey Jackson told me that a run of that length in single ended from the passive autoformer to amp is not an issue. Cube suggested even 45 for the original version. They...

    EMIA Elmaformer (volume control) review

    I just had the V2 upgrade done to the drivers. It changed the specs slightly from 92db 6 ohms to 91db 8ohms. I was driving them with an Audion 2A3 when I first got them. The 2A3 was glorious with my previous 97db RETHM speakers and worked well with the Nenuphar with digital but wasn’t enough...

    EMIA Elmaformer (volume control) review

    I inquired with Jeffrey about a custom amp for my Nenuphar. He let me know that he and Dave have a 4 box GM70 on the drawing board as an upcoming EM/IA product.

    Hi Ron, That is the liquidation list. It’s a levered short that got liquidated. If I’m reading this wrong I actually could not be happier.

    Darwin Award. Someone dropped $8.3 million in one second. The moral of this story? Don’t use leverage. The other moral of this story? Why in the world fade one of the most powerful moves in the history of markets?

    Audio Note UK vs Audio Japan Sonic Differences

    The guy has no details. He had no idea what he was looking at. He didn’t know that ANUK wasnt Kondo. But he was very forthcoming about all of that and I found that refreshing. Stereophile has a nice rundown of the room. Jinro, M6 phono, the new field coil speaker.

    Yesterday Cory Klippsten defined a God candle as $10K on the daily…..with similar follow through. I guess we are in the Archangel candle world now.

    Color me puzzled. The Klipsch La Scalas sound bloody marvelous!

    I said I may someday pair darTZeel with LaScala. That is the $13K speaker.

    Long Runs of Unbalanced Interconnects

    I like reviving old things. Especially when they are endlessly relevant. I just moved my lrg 60”w x 24”d x 36”t rack from between and behind the speakers where it seemed to destroy the integrity of the stereo illusion to the back wall. The amp stayed up front on the floor. This required a 10.5M...

    Which BNC 50-ohm cable for NHB-108 and NHB-18NS interconnection

    There are a lot of choices of Huber Suhner at Mouser. Some are made for offshore petroleum exposure. It deserves more research than I’m going to do right now but this one looks interesting. Silver over copper. About 5mm...

    Color me puzzled. The Klipsch La Scalas sound bloody marvelous!

    Hervé pairs his darTZeel electronics with Klipsch. Jubilees and K-Horns are seen in videos of the office and shows. They must be a distributor as there are piles of unopened Cornwalls and Fortes in MFs video of his factory tour. Maybe I’ll do that next round. Zeel 108/18 and LaScala. People...

    Is Your Loudspeaker Perfect For You?

    I was listening to Scheherazade just last night. I have the AP 45rpm of the Reiner/Living Stereo. I listen to YouTube on my television. It has a built in stereo with forward firing speakers. Things that are well recorded actually sound pretty good. Midfi. I have no way to listen to YouTube...
