>>> hdcd dac? which one?
This is an old school Audio Alchemy DDEV1.2 dac, already outdated but still very good sound. It serves me for more than 12 years already.

dear Limage,
I am flattered...in deed.
In fact, my pleasure to have you here today. I have not imagined in my audio life that I will have you visited me and listened to my audio system.

Oh no, not at all. As a matter of fact, I was taken by pleasant surprise!
I’ve listened to half a dozen of DIY speaker systems before and I must admit yours has easily topped my preference list, quite regardless of price to boot.
Your Saba combo has remarkable presence, an essence sorely lacking in most others. Overall tonal balance is very good indeed, although it does require a little help from the Eico tone control to tame and smooth out the rather disturbing mid-high metallic glare. I never trust tone controls, but this time it seemed to work miracles. Since both the Eico and the Saba belong to the same audio era, perhaps they just make a perfect match, pretty naturally.
This is by no means the most accurate transducer on earth, but the rich timbre, explosive transients and astonishing definition do make this Saba combo a highly desirable and musical system to live with. It takes us easily back to the core value of the audio system — to enjoy music.
Excellent work Welborne !!!

wah, you are back home so quick.
Too bad we did not have chance to switch to the Schulz today.
I like the saba with 18" on, but i agree i may not have done it the best way at this stage, it is only a few hours old since setting it up. Hope next time you visit it will be even better. I hope Limage is not too dissapointed with the sound, and hope he will visit me again. Nice encounter today with a famous guru in local hifi circle.

t70i, 70w version, i think coz i bought it second hand.
I read from internet that the only way to tell is that if you switch it on and the screen starts at -48db, then that is t70i. and mind does.
you know about Pop Pulse too? |

tonight I spent a few hours trying to set up my saba baffle in preparation for Limage, rcwy and Vash to visit, I hope i can greet them with hospitality in way of good sound.
Tonight I tried to couple the 18" open baffle woofer (active xover to play below 60hz, driven by equally lowly Pop Pulse tripath amp) with the SABA coaxial baffle, I like the sound tonight.
Good thing about the Pop Pulse is that it has a remote control and an LED volume screen so that i can adjust the volume of the woofer without having to leave my seat.
Main saba baffle driven by Eico HF-81 without high pass, and connect to the dbx xover by using Eico's "tape out" which works seamlessly, so that i can control the overall volume by adjusting volume on Eico.

The pure-vinyl software look really nice, if it's available in windows version, I may purchase it...
For my [email protected], the onboard DAC is really so so...... not yet try it's ADC yet. |

我有一回與一称做了十几年 HiFi 金牌sales網友 閑聊關于 rogers 3/5A的阻抗問題，他說欲找一對 3/5A玩，我問找 11 Ohm 還是 15 Ohm? 佢話:你錯喇， 3/5A冇 15 Ohm o既，係15.6 Ohm先o岩.....吹撚漲為之氣結

另一次在旺角 hi-fi 房被人問用甚麽CD機，我話16 bit的A730，佢話A730 係14.5 bit，冇16bit (無所喟，最緊要佢老哥肯試套曰本超級CD 機比我聽) !

某年某月某日晚上九時幾近收工時入了一間鋪頭，兩位sales互吐真情，互相數d客麻煩，冇耳、水魚等等，當我隱形!
十數年後兩位依然健在，緊守同一崗位。

Hi Fi 寫手及很多sales 都幾多笑料。
CD 一出時，問尖沙咀一位大哥若有塵在CD碟位置上未讀唔到該位置data，佢話唔會，laser 光會將塵射走 (個位仁兄現在好似係某HiFi 亞太區高層，扺拒有今日)。
另一次在旺角 hi-fi 房被人問用甚麽CD機，我話16 bit的A730，佢話A730 係14.5 bit，冇16bit (無所喟，最緊要佢老哥肯試套曰本超級CD 機比我聽) !
試過跟某台灣音XXX review 大讚好機買機两次，都係衰咗 (香港鬼佬當然也不例外) ! |

As usual with reporters, this Mr. 郭漢丞 did not seem to have listened carefully enough during the interview and as a result, there were quite a number of mistakes which were doubtful at best and misleading at worst, notably, the arrangement of the magnets and the use of the 3M-77 adhesives.
Yes, Maggies do bottom out but the reasons contrived by the reporter are anything but the truth.
Throughout the years in fact, Magnepan has also made a number of minor mistakes with their instruction manual, whether it was Jim Winey himself or his marketing team we do not know. It was Harry Pearson who pointed out the mistakes that were subsequently rectified by the manufacturer.
It isn't surprising, every now and then, to find that even the designer may not know his product as thoroughly as the fervent user can, because to the designer, it has become very much a business concern that overrides anything else.

Dear ackcheng,
The pure vinyl is quite interesting, but have a in depth looking, just like my trial with M-Audio AD/DA sound card for LP recording years ago.
But, before I give it a try, I have to find myself a 24/192 ADC or sound card first....
B.Rgds.. |

My German friend Niko sent me two beech wood balls to add to the tweeter of saba tweeter. Old paper cone tweeter has poor dispersion pattern and when you move your head around while listening you use the stereo image, so called "bundling effect" i was told.
These balls did the magic, marvously, now i don't hve to sit right in the middle, high frequency gets smoother |

Original is +/- 12V but now is +/- 10V with 12 cells battery,. Because I have free C size battery, also I want to simply the wiring and everything inside a shielded box, no external cables other than phono in and out, the interference problem is minimized.
C size battery is 3 times capacity of AA size battery, so the battery replacement interval can be extended to more than half year period.
The power supply inside also with 44000uF capacitance per rail, able to play for 1 min. after power cut off, no problem for play dynamic music with sudden current requirement at all. |

Hercules,
Is it +/- 12V rail you employ? I still keep a DMN pre which uses battery power. The batteries went dead long ago and I never have the mind to get it fixed. The AC power supply seems to be doing just as fine and the difference is not readily audible to my ears.

yesterday I turned my phonocube clone into battery powered by 12 x C size battery, by using Alkaline Battery, may use up to a year before replacing whole 12 pcs of C size battery.
Sutherland also using 16xC size as power source. |
