The Taga Harmony PC-5000 conditioner is undoubtedly a device which is worth attention. Its most significant advantage is that it has four independent groups of outputs—two for each group, used for power filtering of dedicated devices. And, from the very first moments of listening, you could hear a distinctive change in the high-frequency range. Also, in the reproduced stereo image. The treble became more gentle and smooth, but without loss of dynamics. The effect was as if the Taga Harmony PC-5000 got rid of background noises. And, specific sounds placed over much cleaner sound layers. Generally, the stereophony gained more breath, and the individual tones became slightly more transparent. Also, when I played from a vinyl record, the sound became cleaner with better-controlled bass. Author: Hi-Fi Class – BEST BUY, 21-July-2020.

I noticed people buying them for hi-end home audiophile systems. I wanted mine for Recording studio monitoring, which does quite the opposite. And to be frank, I was not sure if these cables were going to do the job! Continue reading Recording studio cable→
Perkune in 2015. I would like to share with you, a few of the things that have happened to me since I began working with Perkune audiophile cables in October 2015. Below is the very first blog that I wrote on my website in November 2015.Continue reading Perkune in 2015→
.The Power of a cord. I arrived at my friend’s house and greeted with a warm welcome. As I entered I could hear the familiar sound of his system, but now it sounded much better, and I said: “man that sounds good” So many things have happened since I saw my friend and I had a much better understanding of his requirements!Continue reading The Power of a cord→
Sound of music better is the title, and I want to share with you a true story that happened to me while I was in England. And. I did not realise at that time just what a difference a sound could make to my life. It started, but I guess we could call it a quirk of fate, and as they say, some things meant to be. I had no idea that from a simple meeting, which was the result of an eBay transaction, I would be MD of Perkune audiophile cables just over a year later! Continue reading Sound of music better→
The new three-meter power cord tested. And, ready to be added to the range of cables. The Funny thing is, this power cord never planned because it was a customer request. Bu,t after testing, I found it sounded better than the two-meter power cord!
Do you like high-quality vintage audio? I know that I certainly do. And, I think the sound produced from vintage audio equipment is simply the best. Good quality audio equipment that has been used and is second hand is often tough to find. Because you never know the history. And, therefore, why is it for sale.
How to make your Vinyl better?. Old or new, crackles or scratches it does not matter because the sound from Vinyl is the best. But, How to make your Vinyl better?
After the post that I wrote a couple of days ago, one of my terrific friends said to me why don’t you tell people how they can make their Vinyl sound much better.
To hear the Vinyl sounds’ coming to you from the other room makes your heart race. The smell from a Vinyl, as you remove it from its sleeve makes you sigh because Vinyl sounds beautiful.
The feel of the vinyl, as you place it on the turntable is something that not easily forgotten. One of my friends just returned from America and invited me to his house to listen to his system. Now, with the addition of a new tube amplifier. He wanted me to hear how his Vinyl sounds – or so I thought!Continue reading Vinyl sounds beautiful→
Audio experience never to forget. I was to listen to a system, which had been constructed by a gentleman from Russia. And, what a fantastic set up it was. The Tanny Reds are one of the best Tannoy ever made. And, this certainly was an audio experience never to forget! Continue reading Audio experience never to forget→
Cryogenic treated cables. I am always trying to find a way for a person to hear a better sound from their audio cables. And, because over the years, I have learned that it is the cables that influence the music you hear from your loudspeakers.
Who is a specialist? An Audiophile is a person who has a great interest and is enthusiastic about high-fidelity sound reproduction. Audiophile values applied to all stages of music reproduction.
Best value audiophile cables. During my years, I was working with audio equipment and Hi-End audio equipment. And, I am ofter asked, who makes the best value audiophile cables?
As with everything these days you have to try for yourself. Because only you have the ears that can determine if the cables are right for you!
You are choosing audio systems. The first thing that you have to do when selecting a more extensive stereo system is to ask yourself what exactly do you want to achieve. Are you planning to move from one room to your present home to a more important place? Or are you planning to relocate and will have a larger listening room at your new residence.
Question what to look for, and Just precisely, what do you want, when are you choosing a different system? And, who do you ask? I hope my ‘Question what to look for?’ will help you choose wisely. Because we certainly have different requirements and also another hearing. And, our hearing is one of the biggest problems we face when involved with audio.
I have spent hours talking to people about what to look for when buying an audio system. And, so I thought it could be a good idea to share my knowledge and ideas with you.
The Old school where to start? Allow me to begin with your listening room because this is the first place. Even before thinking about filling your room with equipment. Because of the importance of allowing the space to be receptive to your needs. Continue reading Old school where to start?→
Audio Gourmet show two – and I hope you enjoyed the first part. And, my second day at the show. And, It was more of the exciting and not so everyday items which are called High-end. And what is hi-end? Yes, how and where do you draw the line? Is Hi-end that good or just a money-making scam Continue reading Audio Gourmet Show Two→
The Audio Gourmet Show. Beautiful is the word that springs to mind as I entered the ‘Radisson Blu’ hotel in Vilnius, Lithuania. Everything set up perfectly, and the atmosphere was ‘electric’. And, as I walked into the first room, I thought to myself, I believe, will find something special. Continue reading Audio Gourmet Show→
Guitarists hear a difference – Let me first go back to the ’70s where I was a guitar player and would drive my mother mad with all the noise I used to make in my bedroom (as many of us did in those days!)
Tannoy 15″ Challenge – OB/300 litre. Tannoy makes some of the world’s best loudspeakers or “Drivers” as called. One of the most exciting drivers that Tannoy ever made was the Tannoy GRF Memory, and so I decided to have a Challenge using this driver.Continue reading Tannoy 15″ Challenge→
Bigger is better. The picture shows a pair of Tannoy Edinburgh SE that set up in my listening room to evaluate the performance about three months ago. The Tannoys were in excellent condition and perfect working order. And, ideal size and fitted very well into my Listening room. I have listed the specifications for you below.Continue reading Bigger is better→
Open Baffle is excellent and, becoming more popular. And, always, a good topic for discussion between audiophiles. I have noticed, recently, OB seems to be rearing its head, and people are taking notice. And, I decided to build a system for myself, so I could find out what I could hear.
Old or new amplifier? When I started listening to music in the ’70s, I had a Leek valve amplifier and loved the sound it produced. When I played my guitar, it was through a Vox AC 30 valve amplifier, and again I loved the sound it made. What do you think is the best? Should I buy an old or a new amplifier or just be content with what I have.
Cryogenic treatment for cables. There are so many reports and articles relating to cryogenics on items we use in Industrial and domestic life. I am interested in sound and whether or not I could improve the quality of sound. But be careful, because if you do too much treatment, you can find your sound could lose some ‘Air’ and upper details!Continue reading Cryogenic treatment→
Which way is correct? Yes, the suitable old power cord and there certainly is a right and a wrong way for the power cord to the plugin. You must get the positive supply to the correct point on your equipment and to do this is very easy. And, all you need is a test light or test screwdriver.Continue reading Which way is correct?→
Burn-in for audio cables, is it fact or fiction? And, I would like to state there is also a burn-in or break-in period for anything having electrical components. It is to do with the actual cable you use as when new has no directionality. And, by running a current through it for a few days gives it a direction and straightens out all the obstructions. But, as with everything on this earth, you have to try for your self. And, you will hear the difference after only a few days, because ‘Burn-in’ is essential, and certainly not fiction! Continue reading Burn-in for audio cables→
Four – was it Quadrophonic? The sound of the seventies – Can you remember many years ago when we had the stereo LP and then along came to the CD. Then along came the fantastic quadrophonic LP and what a revelation that was. Instead of two speakers, there were four speakers!Continue reading Four – was it Quadrophonic?→
