Micro Seiki Dual SX 8000 - RX 5000
I have 3 Micro Seiki turntable systems: SX-8000, RX-5000, and RX-1500VG. Each of them has its own motor transport, but due to the narrow shelf, I set up the motor transport of SX-8000 for 2 turntables. No problem in operation. Good looking when both are running at the same time.

Accuphase DG-38
Accuphase Voicing Equalizers DG-38. This somewhat unusual term was chosen to symbolize the advanced capabilities of the DG-38. While this product is a full-fledged high-precision graphic equalizer in its own right, it also incorporates a sophisticated system for automatic sound field compensation. It divides the audible frequency range into distinct bands (voices),and lets the user choose a target response curve that is then expressed (voiced)by the unit through a process of precise measurement and adjustment steps. The result is full control over frequency response characteristics at the listening position. Through creative use of the capabilities offered by the DG-38, the scope of sound reproduction in the home environment can be significantly enhanced. Get ready to experience a new dimension of music enjoyment.

Hi Frankpiet. SX-8000 is more detail and a little bit over play. Reference is very musical and natural sound. I love References sound.
Hi Tubetubestubes. Thank you for your coment. When I listen music I always dimmer lights. I have a photo with the room light when I listen the music. You can see it at: http://i574.photobucket.com/albums/ss188/giahy02/DSC_2748-1.jpg
Hi Rachmaninov0. I didn't apply any upgrade for my SX8000. Its platter had been gunmetal (a compound of 85% copper, 15% tin & other metals) like what you saw since the time I optained the system.
Hi Audioblazer. I started to build my system about 6 years ago. At first it is 2 lines horn speakers system with passsive crossover. At that time I really felt in love with sound of the horn and compression driver. So I planned to build a system of horn speakers to use the active crossover. Actually I'm not a professional that's why I have not enough experience and knowledge to build them myself. I expressed this idea to my friend who is an electronic engineer and then he designed this system horn speakers for me. Coming over a lot of obstacles, my system is finally improved from 2 to 3, and 4 lines with passsive crossover. After that the system turns into active crossover. It takes me around 6 years to design, upgrade, test and repair the systems. And it is now temporary with 7 lines and I am very satisfied. Almost tube amplifier I am using is installed by my engineer friend, and some times I am kidding him as Mr. Kondo of Vietnam. :-)
Currently, there is no consulting or designing company specializing in acoustic listening rooms in Vietnam. However, I built my acoustic listening room to my own knowlegde as follows: diamesion 10.6 m length x 5.7 width x 4.0 m height with unparallel walls aurroundings to get rid of square angle, then, standing waves and reflecting souding waves. Measuring result response by DG-38 is acceptable though I am still not very very satisfied with it yet. If you have any experience about this, please let me know. I would highly appriciate.
The catridge Living stereo gold limited belongs to one of my friends. I know that it is very difficult for him to finally get it in hand. After experiencing it at his home, I realize it is the best I have enjoyed in life. Actually, thousands of months with entreaties, threadtenings have been over, I got the dreaming Catridge Living stereo gold limited for my own. I am really happy to have and enjoy it.
Over 6 years of implementation, I can see that my system horn speakers still have many technical problems. But I do want to study & repair it. This is interesting job for me. I hope you to receive your ideas contribution so that I can improve this system day by day.
Hi Audioblazer. I live in Hochiminh city Vietnam. It very difficult to tell you does it cost because I have to spend a long time about 5 - 6 years to collect and set up my systems. Best Regards,
Hi Halcro. I am sory. I understand and I wish to answer your question but my english is still limited to exactly describe the whole systems constructions. The sound of systems is amazing and fantastic. I feel the speakers try to demondstrate all signals that they recieve from the sources in a structured way. Moreover, it seems that the speakers voice comes their own feeling, not my willing!!?? Thus, I'm really happy and pleased with it. It is difficult to make a full comparision between this loudspeaker systems to others. However, in comparision with others I used to enjoined such as B & W 802, Sonus Faber Grand Piano Concerto, Sonus Faber Cremona, Avantgarde Duo, Tannoy Arden, Tannoy Gold Monitor,Tannoy Westminter Royal, Tannoy Westminter, Altec Lansing A5 and now I feel the loudspeaker systems is the one I wished. How do you think about my systems? Best Regards,
My English is very weak. I must seek the support of the software switch languages free of Google translater to from Vietnamese language to English. Hopefully you will understand what I want to say. :-) The system frequency active part in I'm using is the Accuphse. 1 Voicing equalizer DG-38, 1 Digital frequency dividing network DF-45 is responsible for 4 lines frequency and 1 Digital frequency dividing network DF-35 is responsible for 2 lines frequency remaining.
The cut of frequency settings of the DF-45 and 35. 1 - Low bass: Under 71Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Fostex FW800N 2 - Mid bass: 71Hz to 400Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver JBL 1500AL 3 - Mid low: 400Hz to 1.600Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Westrex T530A 4 - Mid range: 1.600Hz to 5.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Jim Lansing 375 5 - Mid high: 5.000Hz to 8.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Jim Lansing 175 6 - Treble: 8.000Hz to 12.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Fostex T500Mk2 7 - Tweeter: Upper 12.000Hz - Slop 12db/oct Driver Mewon Ribbon TS01 (passtive crossover) The system is not really perfect, but its performance is wonderful. I'm pleased with what is brings to me. Regards.
