luvdunhill Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 looks like the output stage on the B-52 to me... know we know where Ray got that idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I haven't even seen what he is talking about, but I love the OP in that thread! Paraphrasing, but my favorite was "How can I get schematics to build a Hoax?" :rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 This is what's been missing from my system all these years!!! I want one... no I need one. I have plenty of random tubes resistors and caps so I can just make my own version. I'll just claim it's patent pending like Mikhail if anybody starts asking questions... looks like the output stage on the B-52 to me... know we know where Ray got that idea...

Duggeh Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Remember to have them really close to the amp end than the speakers though otherwise the lovely soldering work in them will spoil the finish on the cabinets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Not to be confused with the TDS Passive Audiophile, which actually does do something to the signal. PS If anyone knows what this circuit is -- AudioAdvisor also sold something that performed "passive harmonic restoration" -- I wouldn't mind knowing what it is, seems like a good starter DIY project. (Not the hoax, though, anyone can solder shit to a wire. I want a circuit that actually does something.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevin gilmore Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 The guy has clearly learned how to break into the cable just like MIT and Transparent do to their high priced cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pars Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Some interesting follow-up discussing Machina Dynamica and Geoff Kait http://www.diyhifi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1529&start=30 peufeu pretty much nails it: The marvilous thing about this guy is that each of his "products" pushes new "limits" and creates a new "paradigm" in the ways of fucking with what remains of the buyer's mind.
