The
Humble
Homemade Hifi website has published
a review on the Duelund
Silver Bypass capacitor.
Sound: In one word: amazing!.
I thought I knew how they sounded but with
the bypass capacitor in the network the
bells were so realistic, it scared me :-)
Verdict:
add about 2 points to whatever capacitor
you are bypassing

21-03-2016
We
have received new stock of the KLE
innovations phono/rca plugs.
KLEI has introduced new modules which feature
solid pure silver contacts for ground pin
and centre pin.
The KLEI Pure Harmony and
the KLEI Absolute Harmony.
The KLEI Absolute Harmony uses an even higher
quality silver.
These 2 models are making the right choice
not easier. To make live easier we offer
(for a limited time) the KLEI Absolute Harmony
for about the same price as the KLEI Pure
Harmony. |

Completely
forgot to add these to our website. We have
been using these in our modifications and
they really work very good.
The Bybee
Lab Music Rails. The Bybee name might
give you the wrong idea. They don't use
or work like the Bybee Quantum purifiers.
The Music Rails use an active circuit to
remove much of the noise that can still
be found on (regulated) power supplies.
We will receive a new item from Jack Bybee,
the Bybee
Quantum Signal Enhancer. This is a device
that can be used without the need for soldering.

DUELUND
has recently launched a new capacitor product.
the Duelund
RS series.
This line will replace the original Virtual
Stacked Foil (VSF) series. A copper foil
hybrid design, using the dielectric of the
original VSF, but in the same form factor
as the CAST-PIO Series, taking advantage
of their non-resonant mechanical stability.
These caps approach the CAST-PIO performance
is a number of ways, but at a far lower
retail price (nearly half).
We will stock the Duelund RS DC (400Vdc)
copper series.
The (loudspeaker) 100Vdc versions can be
ordered, but there will be a long lead time.

Tango/ISO
informed us that they will close their
doors on September 20th.. They cannot
continue their business in the future.
They received in the meantime so many
last minute orders, that they don't accept
any new orders.
It
is really sad that more and more really
good quality products (think Black Gate,
Riken, Elna high voltage capacitors, Shinkoh
etc) are forced to stop their production.

Audio power supply capacitor and the ASC
Blue line capacitors
Already in stock (but not yet on our site):
Yamamoto solder terminals, Fullmusic ECC82
and ECC83 tubes.
These tubes are really good. In the our preamp
better then the Mullard CV4003/ECC82 and CV4004/ECC83
box anodes. |

we have been looking for some replacement
capacitors.
We are pleased to introduce the Unicon
capacitors, specially made for Audio in Japan. |
10-04-2008
We
still get many questions about the availability
of the Black Gate capacitors:
The
Black Gate production has stopped in 2006,
after 18 years of availability. The capacitors
were manufactured by Rubycon under license
for Jelmax Co.Ltd. Jelmax Co.Ltd. has closed
its doors in August 2007 after selling all
their remaining stock.
The
only stocks of Black Gate that will remain
available will be those held the retail
distributors. This is your last chance to
acquire the best electrolytic caps ever
made ! |

New Bastanis loudspeaker. Read
the review
|
 |
Bastanis Atlas Loudspeakers
Climbing The Mountain And Reaching The Summit.
|
Bastanis Atlas loudspeakers are quite simply
the best I have heard. My
statement above is related to my personal
preferences. There are some who do not care
for soundstage and imaging. I do. I crave
atmosphere and emotion. Without question
Atlas deliver a tremendous 3-D image both
with CD and vinyl. Add to this bass that
can be delicate or truly thunderous, as
required, you also have a totally believable
mid-range plus a top-end of crystal clarity.
Dynamics can scare you half-to-death. These
loudspeakers will suit those who value SET
amplifiers – BIGTIME! They have an
advantage over horns of having a total absence
of "horn shout".
|
11-01-2007
We have lots of new parts, but we just don't
have the time to update the site.
We have added some TDO
resistors (Tokyo Den-On) 20 Watt
cathode resistors, TKD
(Tokyo Ko-On Denpa) volume controls
(as used by Kondo) and Tocos
(Tokyo Cosmos Electric Co. LTD) 100R
hum bucking potentiometer We
also received new Oyaide SHUKO, IEC connectors
and bulk powercords, and some nice ebony
wooden knobs to go with our attenuators |
14-08-2006
We
have become distributor/dealer for the Kiwame
resistors
|
17-05-2006
We now can supply Tango / ISO 230V power transformers |

The
Bastanis Prometheus MKII has been reviewed
on 6moons.com and received an 6moons.com Blue
moon award
|
28-04-2006
We
have become distributor/dealer for the Scheu-Analog
turntables, tone arms and cartridges. |
30-03-2006
We
have been able to reduce the prices for all
the Bybee
Quantum Purifiers.
After some initial hesitations more and more
customers start to use these devices. In all
this time we never received a negative comment
on the purifiers, only very positive ones.
So we put in a big order and got a very good
deal from the manufacturer. |
01-03-2006
Added
EAT Cool Dampers to our product range. |
01-02-2006
Added
the Jupiter Beeswax paper foil capacitors
to our product range. |
28-12-2005
Added
some more Fullmusic
tubes: 300B (solid plate), PX25/n (mesh),
45/n (mesh) and the rectifier 274B/n (mesh) |
24-09-2005
Added
some reviews
of our already famous attenuator. |
30-08-2005
We
have added a new product to our shop: the
AudioNemesis DC-1 d/a converter. In
our opinion this d/a converter is the new
reference in its price category.
We
compared it to some very expensive other
d/a converters. (Audio Note and Accuphase)
The AudioNemesis does sound different but
on a musical level it reached the same high
level.
Compared to more normal priced CD-players
the AudioNemesis adds colour and energy
to the sound and reduces the "the digital
"stress". In short: The AudioNemesis
DC-1 is all about music. |

We
get many questions about Tamura Transformers.
Tamura has a long history in making probably
the best audio transformers that are available
today. click here for the Tamura's
Pricelist. |

We
are very excited about our new "Kit"
section. We have added some remarkable amplifier
kits. At
this moment we are still working on the
site, so expect a few pages which "are
under construction"
The
last few months we have been listening to
the DIY Prometheus loudspeakers and we are
convinced that this loudspeaker could be
the end of a long search.
The Prometheus is an open baffle design
with a non-filtered fullrange driver which
covers the 100Hz - 10kHz range. The very
low frequencies are covered by two active
subwoofers. This together gives a loudspeaker
with an 100dB efficiency and an easy 8 Ohm
impedance. The Prometheus is a speaker that
can play with grace and at the same time
with absolute authority
In the january- issue of Stereophile (USA,
biggest hifi- magazine worldwide) there
is a short report of the Rocky Mountain
Audio Fest and the Prometheus were named
for the best sound at the show!!
Imagine that from a magazine that does not
ever review DIY products.
