    Heathkit A-8A Vintage Tube Amplifier Measurements

    Hello everyone, I am a vintage audio enthusiast who enjoys designing, modifying, and repairing tube amplifiers. I'm also an objectivist and a long-time reader of ASR, but I've always wished there was more tube-related objectivist content on this forum. As we all know, tube amplifiers are far...

    He is going to update his database using the new B&K equipment. Edit: It surprises me a little bit this thread doesn't get any traction. I thought more people would find this interesting to discuss :)

    Apple TV 3'rd Generation - AirPlay measurements over TOSLINK

    Hello all, I was about to get rid of my old Apple TV 3'rd generation, A1469 model, due to the fact that it has no HBO Max, just Prime Video and Netflix and not sure for how long, given that streaming platforms will probably get updated in few years again, while this Apple TV model is already...

    Are headphones frequency response measurements irrelevant?

    I've been obsessed with headphones measurements for years, specifically with frequency response measurements. But, I am yet to find measurements that match with what I actually hear.

    Can I find Golden Ears (goldenears.net) measurements anywhere?

    As the title says. Are there Golden Ears measurements archived somewhere, the way Tyll's Innerfidelity ones are? Golden Ears measurements were THE best, and the most accurate I've ever seen. Unfortunately, the site is long gone, and using the Wayback machine is not smooth at all, plus a lot of...

    Why buy DAC with higher measurements?

    ASR reviews for DACs often capture "beyond hearing threshold'. We each are susceptible to psychoacoustics. For amps, we select from measurements, power and use features. For DACs in the 'Blue' zone of highly rated, why would we select one that has the higher cost, assuming features not...

    Measuring 2-channel Buckeye Purifi Amplifier Performance

    With Amir busy with house repairs, @Buckeye Amps and I discussed whether I might share some of my efforts to measure his Purifi amplifier as a stop gap until Amir can do so.

    Adam Sub7 - a few measurements

    For a while now I've been thinking about adding a sub to my desktop system based around the Neumann KH120A. My primary motivation was not to get more LF extension (in the nearfield KH120 go relatively deep for the size), but to solve the bass dips in the 70-110Hz range caused by loudspeaker...

    Suggestion: more audio interface measurements

    I've been following this website for a long time, and it is my humble and personal opinion that we kind of reached a saturation in terms of DAC and HP amp measurements. I think that for quite some time now, ever since say the Topping D50s, we reached a point where anyone that can spend about...
