    PC sound card based distortion analyzers.

    Addendum : To move from the time domain to the frequency domain you need an instrument that implements the Fourier Transform . ( spectrum analyzer or some scopes with this function inside ) Ciao Marco

    PC sound card based distortion analyzers.

    A question : why do you want to test THD + N ? Are you a designer or do you want to do for amusmement ? If you want to test THD + N you need an audio analyser . The difference is that with a scope you are in the time domain and with an analyzer you are in the ferquency domain . Scope together...

    Quadraphonic: How to

    If my memory serves me PL 2000 ambience function works both with 2 and 4 channels . Test and test again , using spare amp and speakers ( if you have ) . This system probably is the forefather of Carver' s Hologram. Ciao Marco

    Quadraphonic: How to

    PL 4000 ( 2nd version only ) is able to decode to SQ records and performs a sort of ambience . For amusement I tested these functions with 2 small speakers ( AR 8bx ) and Yamaha 2010 as power amp ( both already owned ) . Unbilievable , it works . So I bought this little class t power amp...

    FM Antenna????

    There's no good antenna . It depends on the enviromental condition ! 1) Start with the simplest solution : a 300 Ohm dipole 2) Check the RSSI using strength meter and tuning meter 3) Search weak stations ( classic music ) and check the noise due to multipath 4) In case of poor results use...

    My mother passed away

    Yesterday at 91 my mother passed away . The death was due to the age and nothing else . Now the problem will be my father ( 94 ) , but he's not alone since my brother and his family live at the first floor of the same house and I and my family live 3 miles away . Ciao Marco

    700B Power Switch

    Use a 16 A relay with a cap connected to the power switch . In other words you insert the relay circuit of PL 4000. Ciao Marco

    Thank you ! Anyway Marantz 2215 is already in my hands and so I need speakers for it . It's necessary to have high efficiency speakers not to destroy the tweeters at first clipping. Ciao Marco

    Dynaco A25

    What do you think about these speakers ? 600,000 units sold . I presume that the sound is great . I would like to power them with my Marantz 2215 BL ( 15 wpc ) Sensitivity is 92 db / W . Strongly recommanded by Marantz fans for 1030 and 2215 . Thank you in advance Ciao Marco
