Aria Sinsonido Review Full Volume It

But if in order to achieve it we have to deal with screaming kids, broken cars and wasps this is the equivalent of too much gain (and probably bad eq but we can work on that later), leading too excessive peaks.

Even a 600ohm source means the control has less effect.

B point of 3.4kHz at maximum attenuation.

Dave That was my first thought, but they look like standard SM electrolytics, and the codes also suggest that.

Im a bit concerned about the volume pot wiring, as it will have a frequency component, depending on its position (as well as whats on the output).

Near minimum the LF cutoff will be about 400Hz as only the 10ohm resistor will be relevant against the 33u cap, but at full volume it will be 4.8Hz.

This could account of the apparent poor low end.

My sig genny seems to have developed a fault on its higher ranges and goes unstable when the gain is turned up:cry: and its only about 45 years old.

Incidentally, I tend to post links to PDFs for drawings as they are much clearer than any bit-image.

As well as being more stable, they are actually smaller than the originals From actual frequency response behaviour Ive downgrade my guess at the original dry caps to only 100nF.

Increasing the 33u caps to 47u and adding the 100ohm resistors, makes the worst-case LF -3dB point about 45Hz.

This has one drawback in that the level will be lower in headphones.

However, at the same time the battery life will be slightly better as the amplifiers wont be dumping power into a 10ohm resistor at low volume.

I added an extra resistor, rather than changing the value of the existing one partly because space was getting really tight, but also because its quick and easy to revert if needed.

Bravo Folderol:clap: - looking forward to hearing the end result in situ in the instrument:thumbup: Martin.

Fortunately the directors on our floor appreciate that most of the time we actually do useful and productive work: Rich.

There is a small, but at least non-zero, chance of it happening this weekend.

Maybe there should be some sort of calibration system which allows for dynamics but didnt leave you totally exhausted at the end of two weeks LUFS Life Units relative to a Fortnights Sleep Rich.

Maybe there should be some sort of calibration system which allows for dynamics but didnt leave you totally exhausted at the end of two weeks LUFS Life Units relative to a Fortnights Sleep Rich Presumably the scale goes into the negative:D.

In which case negative units would imply something very strange that I cant quite think of an analogy for.

Thus negative units significantly reduce the total LUFS figure - sort of akin to sorting out the gain structure to find more sensible headroom and space for proper dynamic range.

In this real life thing, these events are therefore rejuvenating and allow proper context for these otherwise unpleasant peaks, so I guess things like time pottering on the DAW, playing an instrument (with the possible exception of bagpipes), a nice picnic etc contribute a reduction in the overall LUFS value Its rather tenuous (turns out real life may not be quite as simple as audio signals;) ), but its worth persevering with if it provides (pseudo)scientific justification for the more fun things:thumbup.

A nice picnic with friends should have low peak stress, and so contribute little to the integrated LUFS.
