Okay have been fooling around with plate and interstage iron in my phono. And as usual more musical come mind when this is done. So the question that comes to mind, when I have been doing the math, is how many hy's are needed. I have seen rough figures 35 hy's per 1,000 rp to 100 hy's per 1,000 rp. If my math is correct 35 hy's at 1000 would be good to 9 hz. So here are my questions. 1. If your speakers are good to about 35hz (no sub) does this low 9hz have any effect on anything? 2. Short of a pipe organ or cannon shot how low can a lp go? 3. Has anybody done listening tests with various choke values like one that starts roll off at 30hz vs 10hz for example. There is alot things going on with chokes and transformers that keep me guessing but almost always bring forth a more musical performance. DHT's are also like that. My holy grail is not the math comes out right, but the tone,texture,attack etc... lights my heart and soul. Thanks Tom |
You got that he's talking about phono reproduction, right? nt, posted on November 20, 2014 at 09:12:27 | |
