Re: vax vacuum T slot
The T-slot is the mate of a T-connector thingy on the floor nozzle. When the connector is in the slot, the hose/tube stands vertically.

Re: DIY Transistor Amp Using NVA Boards
The bollocks are the continued comparison of repeatable measurements (technical and audible) to the least reliable form of measurement: random listening. I think that everyone here now realizes what is "important" to mr Quinn and that his arguments do not necessarily need constant repeatin...

Re: What should I hear?
I really wonder why some people ask questions, get sincere answers from people with first hand experience - and then argue with everyone - even although there is ample evidence that the only one missing the point is the original poster. The major misunderstanding is that no one here is interested in...

Re: What should I hear?
... And your assuming a transparent relationship between what you measure and what you hear. When in reality the relationship is so opaque you may as well ignore measurements and go straight to listening . ... I am assuming nothing except that we can learn something with every measurement that we t...

Re: What should I hear?
I’ve come to the conclusion Richard used to much doping for my tastes . I’ve nicked an idea from scanspeak and put 6 lines of glue from dust cap to edge . I much prefer this . At the moment I’ve no damping on the mid range and prefer it that way in one v one audition . Now I’ll move on to listening...

Re: What should I hear?
My aversion to x overs is simple . Side by side they don’t sound as good . If they did I keep them . Though simple x overs and good parts makes it closer. When I fist experimented the difference between nothing and a cheap mission x over was staggering . A loaded - very much disqualified answer. Ob...

Re: What should I hear?
I do not understand the aversion to crossovers. When well designed, they simply let drivers perform in their sweet spot instead of allowing the "out of useful band" garbage to become audible. Basically any naturally recorded instrument can show the deficits. The recordings that I use to vo...

Re: Raspberry Pi in same case as DAC

Re: Tweeters with horns
I would question their salability at all. Any gaps or steps in the horn curve really messes up the gain and phase. The driver needs to be attached to a round to square adapter and the flat baffle must go. They look great.
