if your ear is really tuned into what 'clean' is (many people do not), you're not going to find it in a Cornwall IV... the CWIV has output in the LF region, not cleanliness. It's a case of More not being better... but that is a subjective choice for each listener. Direct Radiating large format drivers have a lot of Distortion...

from power tubes to 12A/7's... how did I know that was going to happen... In my circuit... the 350b was the hand down best... but you know, the entry price will kill your wallet.

why not try it both ways and see which one you like the best... I think, in general, that ESS (32 bit) has the upper hand over Burr-Brown (24 bit), but it's probably a personal choice... I am not really sure at that level if there is a big difference, though there is probably a difference. ESS that is newer or higher in the line I would say is a better chipset for sure... but it's still no AKM4499. Topping has a pretty interesting DAC using the AKM4499 and is reasonably priced, but it's still single channel chipset as far as I know.

Simulations are WAY MORE important than 'in room response' hooey anyway...

What are you worried about if you have good corners...

Nope... my book was NEVER delivered despite them funder telling me that it had been. No book for me.

Water Displacement 40... created for the military to use to displace moister on Ballistic Missiles. it will help kill Oxidation... but not as good as some other products.

charring on that Capacitor...

A/B should be decent design choice... I am sure they would work 'FINE' together even if there might be better choices.... give it a try.

should be labeled 'PS1'

This is kind of being set up like a 'trap' of some kind... but I did an extensive listening test a few years ago making an el34 comparison and I could hear a difference in the same circuit. They had some distinct differences that I could discern... but they were more alike than different. The 66 and 88 were more potent and had a very forward mid's and the 34 were more laid back and significantly more balanced from top to bottom. That was about it for me... like most things, none was right and none were wrong. They were different flavors

I mean, I wish I was learning something here, but I just am not... and I don't think most of the long timers around here with more than a couple thousand posts aren't either... but your effort is appreciated.

A proper 1-2 feature...

It was a Weber Xmas...

there is a lot of good stuff going on in Vietnam... when I was looking for some Jupiter cap's a few years ago (after they stopped making them) I found some in Vietnam. they came with zero issues. My choice would be for a Tube of some kind... a 45, 2A3 or 300 is good.

How does the specific Heritage dispersion pattern require room treatment? Are you speaking of the 'directionality'? If so, that is not inherently, or specific, to klipsch.

play with it... have some fun E. It really helped mine out though your Beryllium might not need as much as the 2050i does.

I use something similar, 90x90 and it definitely added that .missing sense of 'air' that I was missing for the 402 alone.

I think al5 is better and more distinctive. What happens if klipsch makes a network change and leaves everything the same...

It's rather simple in terms of the Bass sound... do you prefer distortion or do you not? One is not right, and the other wrong... they are merely different.

That is why you only use ultra high damping on LF sections...

That looks cool. Ive got an ancient family bible also about the size of yours, but I wanted a way to display it visually... even the sides.

Life and matter resonate...

My bad... that is correct.
