Do any high or high-ish impedance IEMs exist, good ones?
16Ω drivers are another interesting topic. Whether it is a rule or coincidence I notice Qts is often higher for them, annoyingly a lot 16Ω...
I listened to some of the cheapest, most generic piezo tweeter 10" PA speakers you can imagine, a friend uses them for guitar. Very grainy sure,...
Any thoughts or experiences with guitar/instrument woofers? Looking at old JBL E series, some of the lowest Qts and Le with highest sensitivity...
Does anyone know if high efficiency speakers generally sound better in some way to lower efficiency types? dynamics, speed, something like that?...
If someone is ever in the position to test it It would be interesting to see THD and CSD impact of different amounts of damping on the rear port...
I'm curious, do you have any good examples of this?
According to him Topping offered to do this some time ago but he declined, he didn't have the time and he trusts them (????), really bizarre...
Same here. The stand out quality was how unnatural and fatiguing it sounded... which weirdly enough was rooted in the low end. Only HP that I...
Real NOS is just.... NOS, no oversampling, what NOS has always been before Denafrips. NOS or OS is not a big determining factor of the sound in...
Clean/fluid transient and rhythm reproduction is a perfect description of one thing real NOS does well. I think there is more to it than ringing,...
Actually all the Soekris DACs are segmented types like this. sign magnitude and then 'thermometer' DAC for MSBs.
the input impedance of the analyser is very high. 100k I believe marvey set it for
That is the very issue I have with it, there is no standardised speaker load so the best option is to not bother and use a basic resistive load?...
Very interesting that John Yang and other 'objectivists'/businesspersons seem to show an aversion to using complex loads for amp testing in this...
