LOL, i was looking where the gold nugget was hidden!

I think the problem with reviewing a "high end speaker" like "low end speakers" is that in fact you are reviewing a chain of parameters, like the recording, the source, the amplifier, room, speakers, inclusive your own emotions of the moment, brain and perception. There is nothing "objective"...

Thanks!

Go for your own ears! What you love is your reference. Nothing more subjective and complex as the brain as a music proccesor.

Yes, I've thought about it, in practice the higher resistance might reduce the output of my dome midrange a bit. This could have even helped balance the output between the drivers. I don't know how the (small) quality differences between the two MKP capacitors work out. Thanks!

TL line with this room filling easy going bass without compression or boomyness what so ever and it play's deep. Below 30 Hz it drops but still porduces a good 25 Hz bass without DSP.

I will do just that with a cup of coffee :) thanks!

I use two different 33 uF MKP capacitors in series to make 16.5 uF. One is a DIYaudio Silver cap and the other an old Solen Chataeu Rough(?) Does using them in series have negative consequences? Would it make an audible difference to use just one MKP capacitor? The sound is good and does this...

Good question, i went from CD to streaming Tidal and keep DSD and FLAC files on my hard disc in case there is no internet. I tried several players and ended up with AIMP about sound quality and ajustment for file type and drivers. I use this player for several years. I use my acer notebook for...

First time i see it, thanks. Lets see how it compares to V3 and 07. I run two 07, great amps love it. Had several A B and tube, this is not less.

How can you tell that the upgrades have influence on the sound quality, beside personal subjective observation? Did you measure any change in distortion? What are your impressions about this upgrade?

I would go for solid silver wires.. sounds more "refreshing" ;-) Bye the way, a tube pre amp combined with a good TPA3255 amp really sounds great and unbeatable about price. I have 2 Aiyima 07, would like to compare them with the V3.

Good question! I went that path with my 1977 vintage Toshiba SB620 (amp, a 14 kg. heavy sweet sounding amp untill it died. I brought it to several repair shops and none of them where able to fix it ending up to sell it as is. Spend a lot of money and time without any result. I bought a el cheapo...

I am talking about how affordable good quality amp's are nowadays, thanks to our Chinese friends and TI. With this price point you can not expect a lot of shiny material to fulfill eastics needs
