AUDIOPHILE MAN - HiFi REVIEW
The Qlearsoul HiCore H2 is tiny, affordable and easy to use — but is it really a £120 HiFi amplifier? Turns out, location is everything with this little Class D amp.

Gestern hatten wir das Vergnügen das erste mal zu hören wie unsere neuen Lautsprecher klingen.
Dabei haben wir am Ende eines Liedes im Hintergrund eine Gitarre gehört und uns gefragt: "War das schon vorher auf der CD?"
Also bisher ein tolles Projekt was uns allen sehr viel Spaß macht.
Kurz zur Info: Die gesamte Box ist 1,30m hoch. Oben ist ein kleiner Röhren Verstärker zu sehen.#hifi #lautsprecher #lautsprecherdesign #speaker #speakerbox #madeingermany #madeineu #madeineurope #madeinkiel #handwerk

AUDIOPHILE MAN - HiFi REVIEW
Can affordable cables really deliver a serious upgrade? I test QED’s Performance Audio interconnects and speaker cables.

John Darko, my budget busting audio reviewer, just posted a darko.audio product announcement for Schiit Audio’s Freya 2 preamplifier. Freya 2 adds Forkbeard and adds gain choices for both the solid state differential output and the hollow state (valve) differential output. Freya+ was 0 db gain for solid state and +6 db of gain for the valve output. This made engaging the valves without turning down the output a bit of an adventure. #HiFi https://www.patreon.com/johndarko/posts/schiits-freya-2-171004463?utm_campaign=patron_engagement&utm_source=post_link&post_id=171004463&token=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJyZWRpc19rZXkiOiJpYTI6OWMyY2Q4OWItM2RhZC00MWEzLWIwZjktOWJjNzFmNzMzZmEwIiwicG9zdF9pZCI6MTcxMDA0NDYzLCJwYXRyb25faWQiOjczNTMxNDg1fQ.XBJqvhZ5s933wBfK70Zf0ZoKWT5rnC_VV706aWUBCy4&utm_id=df56a36b-6586-4fcb-83ae-24746a23db41&utm_medium=email

RE: https://mastodon.longlandclan.id.au/@stuartl/109923393717597223
This turntable seems to be dead as a doornail, suggesting the fuse has popped as well.
I haven't gotten around to replacing the pot which I suspect is worn out, but a couple of years back, I *did* find the repair manual and a photo of the pot in question.
Today, I stumbled on what look to be, suitable replacement parts: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/166186482597
I'd prefer to buy a known-brand part from RS/Element14, but this at least fits electrically and form-factor wise.

Усилители: где прячутся различия
Это вторая часть шестой статьи цикла о том, почему акустика, которая хорошо измеряется, может плохо звучать. В первой части я задался вопросом, действительно ли все усилители звучат одинаково. Пока мой ответ сводится к следующему: при условиях, в которых усилители тестируются и специфицируются (резистивная нагрузка, стабильный синусоидальный сигнал, уровень ниже порога клиппинга), компетентные усилители действительно сложно отличить на слух. Одна-единственная цифра, замеренная на одной частоте, при одной мощности и на одной нагрузке, говорит правду только об этой точке измерения . Однако спецификации умалчивают о другом: реальная нагрузка отличается от простого резистора; зависимость искажений от уровня сигнала и их характер влияют на то, что мы слышим; демпфирование динамика определяется не только усилителем; внутренняя схема представляет собой ряд компромиссов; а музыка регулярно выходит за пределы линейного диапазона усилителя. Сейчас мы заглянем внутрь усилителя, рассмотрим выходной каскад и то, как каждое решение на уровне схемотехники влияет на спектр искажений и зависимость их от уровня сигнала. Разберём и обратную связь — что она убирает и что добавляет. Посмотрим, что происходит у шин питания, и вернёмся к вопросу, с которого начали.

This Akai AM-2200 amplifier from the late 70s has no power-on delay or protection circuitry from the factory. More expensive or later amps had such circuitry, resulting in the well-known relay click after power-on.
When I got this amp, it had several transistors in the driving stage very marginal, but even after replacing them, it still created quite a loud thump and prolonged (1s or so) of DC on power-on. During the repair process, it even blew one of my (albeit sacrificial) speakers.
So now it has a protection/power-on delay circuit including a relay and fast-off opening the relay before the shutdown can add another thump. It was quite the adventure as I had to learn KiCAD along the way and did my first custom PCB order. But now it works splendidly, and I am very happy with the result.
