Raab's student apartment (on the move) System
Last Update: January 16, 2006 at 17:46:53 IP Address: 158.36.150.177
Amplifier: Single stage UX-171A loaded by a Tango XE-20S. I can use a single stage because my power requirements are modest and the preamp can swing a very high voltage. Riken resistors, 100uF/100V Black Gate FK cathode bypass.
Preamplifier (or None if Integrated): Django TVCs with modded ELMA switch (replaced the balls with a single smaller for smoother rotation) into a UX-112A with a BBMCCCS load. CCS and coupling capacitors are 0.2uF/350V/0.3% silver mica, resistors are riken, and a 1000uF/16V Black gate FK as cathode bypass. With a gain of 8.5 it can swing 17Vrms from my 2Vrms source.
Speakers: At home I have round wooden tractrix horns with TAD drivers (4001), and I will start building edgarhorn bassbins when I get back home. For now, I listen on my grado headphones as I cannot transport my speaker setup around the world.
Sources:
CD Player/DAC: USB DAC with four TDA1543 in dual push pull. I use inverter logic for balanced operation. No reclocking still.
Other Accessories/Room/Misc.:
Speaker Cables/Interconnects: DIY
Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections): Much classical (I started playing the violin 6 years old, so even though I doesn't play anymore I still enjoy the music very much. also I come from a family of musicians), female voices, and pretty much everything that is detailed and interresting to listen to with such a setup. Very much music I used to listen to in the past sounds like shit though, but that is not my setup's fault I think.
System Goals/Comments: Full horn system, DHT powered.
System Strengths: ..
System Weaknesses: ..
Video/HT System: None
