Your photos remind me of these horn speakers I took while holidaying in Korea in Dec 2017 Edit: To give you an idea of the size, it is more than 2m in height as the way it is sitting on the photo.

Yamaha_man Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Hmmmm, for me the words gorgeous and Hifi don’t go together. Tell me which one of these is gorgeous, if the say the grandioso you’ve got rocks in your skull. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit, the results were impressive and I'm sure the relative head vs tape speed helped (just like faster IPS helped on RtR decks I guess). People have been playing with that for a long time, and some are just discovering it now (driving the prices of good VHS HiFI machines way up), the equivalent tape speed is on the order of 500+IPS if I recall correctly so tape surface noise is much less obvious, but the downside is the heads must be perfectly aligned or you hear a buzz. Frequency range was at least 20-20k, 90db dynamic range, 70+db channel separation, 70+db SNR. at those specs were for early, average quality decks. Perfectly set up and recorded on a good machine (with manual level controls!) a VHS audio recording could be better than most studio R2R machines.

ICUToo Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Is that the new Rossi amp/s? They look amazing! If a Nagra amp slept with an MSB amp, this is what you'd get:) (And a snip at 39K USD!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
