Blue Circle audio gear & Gilbert Yeung Designs Forum

You know my thoughts: I'm RMAFed out after last year.

Oh yes, and the seats come out in a flash! Maybe mono-blocks? If you want to see the competition take a look at the standard Naim "unit" that comes with your next Rolls Royce. A well known UK tube equipment and speaker mfr was asked by RR if he'd like to have the job Naim eventually took on, but he ...

That's a relief. So, maybe it can be the car radio in may Mitsubishi Colt?

What does one use for a stand? A ford F-150?

What is lost/gained by making it smaller/bigger?

A good example of audio intercourse. Ban BC!

Everyone is arguing about "jitter" and "reclocking" these days.

What do you about "jitter" reduction in these Dacs?

I posted the following comment on the Show thread about RMAF and I cut and pasted most of it over here, since there were not many comments from "listeners" about how the Penny sounded. ************************************************************ I think what everyone forgot to say is that the Penny ...

I think what everyone forgot to say is that the Penny is now a reputable sounding speaker. At RMAF there is a tendency among speaker vendors to over-drive their speakers with huge SS amps. This leads to a cacophony of floor and wall-shaking sound in the corridors. Not nice. I went into one room wher...

OK. I have an SBH headphone amp. Gilbert built me a capacitance pack that has 2 switchable levels of filtering: huge and insane. (Gilbert, you may want to add the numbers). It is in a power supply box and sits between the PS and the amp control/output unit. At the same time I got this I also was for...

In 2007, I followed a guy around RMAF who had a reference disk that consisted of synthetic bass tones, all sort of down in the fart range, lower than what I would call "music". He's go into every room, bulldozer his way to the source and demand that this disk be played. Then, in the following 10 min...

I have the orange filtered power bar you made for me. I guess I'll wait and see how the modifications to the SBH sound and then think about the next step up: one step at a time.

Thanks for the update.

And you can also make a battery power supply for my SBH if I wanted to do that? Would it help me? If so, how?

Passive gain stage? That was news to me.

Chowder Are you asking if the speaker get really reactive. What is the costly effective way to handle such load? I assume you understand the relationship between reactive load, either capacitive or inductive, and the resistive load? Yes to the first; I think so to the second: reactive means impedan...
