Come on guys, Trump said we live in a shi_hole....and that is mostly true. Technical expertise is VERY limited. Where the hell do you have LESS THAN 10 very clued up technicians in a population of 60 000 000! So dont even think we approach 1st world, we are barely 3rd world now. :angrywife...

I import Ming-Da and Trishend Line Magnetic... Amazing kit...not copies of anything.
The MingDa amps are unique, about 60% there are no similar amps anywhere for sale.
Build quality ? Its NOT a Sonus Faber or Jeff Rowland. Never will be. But 8/10 can be expected.
Import. Shipping - take best...
Hi,
These devices rocked my perception of affordable DAC's!
I have on order
10x ifi ZEN DAC's
2 x ZEN CAN
2 x ZEN Phono's :whistler:
All about R3200 each landed.
If you want to order, I can still add to the order before Wednesday.
I also like the Ultraviolet! Works really well. Sounds better than my ?reference? printer usb.
I?ll post some pics later. Much more elegant version in the making
Ender, I seem to have had the same experience,
Marius visited and 6 of us decided to test the same. We didnt change OS, Drivers or USB ports. :-* . Only the cable.
My old USB printer cable, nice and thick with two ferrite "bumps" did damn well. The AQ Forest was worst...exactly like you...
Modern sound.... easy. Go drive a 1979 bmw and drive one now....that is modern
1980?s were about bass drivers, just moved out of the squawker era, little paper down tweeters, horrendous little monsters. Today a brilliant tweeter has a massive flat and smooth frequency response. The materials...
My housemate owned the kappa 9.2?s. Incredible nice sounding speaker. Huge presence. We also had the 9i?s. Bit of a let down in sound. Almost ordinary. Also less collectable. Huge power. Nope. 200W more than enough. The NuPrime IDA8 drove the 9.2?s beautifully
Do t use an old amp. Makes the...
A power conditioner is just a filter. Cap. Coil and maybe MOV for spikes
Power regenerator is in a way a power amplifier. AC converted into DC and then via well designed oscillator turned into 50hz signal. The power amp brings it back to 220V
A 1.25kw pair of Macs can theoretically pull 6kw out...
Cracked and bad solder joints. Now there is a ******* that causes so much trouble. I now have two amps I ?fixed? by just some resoldering... under magnification it?s crazy to see how a leg will separate itself from the solder! And then starts the intermittent problema
There are NO more improvements in capacitors, electrolytic etc in the 2000?s, there is no need, it?s a technology that matured in the 1990?s. There is merit in replacing caps from 1900 to 1980...or thereabouts but it?s not obligatory :whip:
Boutique caps have also run into a wall... if...
Hi everyone, Im Francois...a re-CAP nutty...or used to be
I have a sh..those of nice 30000uF+ 100V caps from people that HAD to recap. Using a testing rig - Not just ESR meter etc, they tested between 90% and fricking 110%, Charging and discharging. Fast and slow.
I recapped AU777, BA303...
