New school ideas meet old school junk. Friday, December 26, 2014. Choke me in the shallow water. Before I get too deep. What is pictured above is 14 pounds of copper and amorphous in the form of some 12hy 200ma PS chokes. The interesting little additional fact is they can handle 1000Vac @ 120hz without buzzing and will be used as L1 after some 872's in a GM70 amp. Tuesday, December 2, 2014. Bjorn must be one unlucky guy. With 13 as his lucky number it finally paid off. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). On May ...

hifi heroin: April 2015
http://hifiheroin.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
New school ideas meet old school junk. Monday, April 20, 2015. I was getting a bit low on bar solder for my leaded solder pot so off to the 'bay I went. The first purchase was 12 pounds of Alpha-Solder. Unfortunately upon getting it I quickly realized it was lead free with a small 3.5% bonus. Back to the 'bay for some good old fashioned lead solder and without thinking I bough these. Now I have a bar of 60-40 and a bar of 55-45 that I don't have the heart to melt down. Oh well. To the 'bay batman. REAL F...

hifi heroin: August 2015
http://hifiheroin.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
New school ideas meet old school junk. Saturday, August 1, 2015. This is another one I haven't seen before. This nicely pigmented album only appears to have two tracks but in reality it only has one since it is a binaural recording which requires two cartridges to play it. This means you need a tonearm with two headshells,. The arm appears to work like a linear tracker and may have been the inspiration for the Garrard zero 100. Here is a crude video showing it in action and some liner notes. Bilder sind ...

Exploration of horn loudspeakers and turntables. This blog is created by Chuck Michlin who designs and builds horn loudspeakers as Azzolina Audio. Friday, 11 November 2016. Visit to Elrog Tube Factory! European Triode Festival 2016. And recently the new proprietor of Elrog tubes. Our thanks to Thomas who not only was kind enough to invite us to see a little of these mysteries but also for sustaining the production of such a rare device, a modern thoroughbred of current production classical audio tubes.
