  • The Ultimatum XLS This Multi-Chamber, Multi-Driver Confection Looks to the Seated Listener Like Any Other Two-Way Stand-Mount
    October 2011 NEAT XLS Loudspeaker A small loudspeaker that is truly mesmerizing and emotionally moving. Review By Malcolm Steward NEAT Acoustics produced its first loudspeaker back in 1989. That unassuming-looking but ground-breaking model, the Petite, quickly became my 'reference' compact, high-end, two-way. It has retained that position for more than two decades. While the latest mark for iteration, the Petite SX, has replaced the somewhat utilitarian looking original, with its almost bitumen-like finished cabinet, little else – certainly nothing fundamental – has changed in all that time... except the price, of course. The Petite has now been joined in my listening room – and affections – by another and rather grander. NEAT: The Ultimatum XLS This multi-chamber, multi-driver confection looks to the seated listener like any other two-way stand-mount. However, closer inspection reveals that the bass-midrange section uses two, isobarically loaded 168mm drivers; the HF uses a single Sonomex domed XL driver; and on the top face of the enclosure sit two EMIT 25mm planar/ribbon super HF units – aka super-tweeters. That enclosure is unusual as well. It is fabricated from slow-growing, Birch plywood, chosen for its consistency and its excellent behavior in terms of resonance. The front baffle consists of controlled density fiberboard bonded to the main cabinet with a Polyethylene membrane. This produces a remarkably inert platform upon which to mount the mid-bass and high frequency drivers. Each of this array of drive units is located in its own discrete chamber: the largest of these cavities is also ported to provide ideal loading for the rear unit of the isobaric bass pairing.

First as a tragedy and then as a farce. Somehow it Is has become the fall of 1992. This Incredible Secret Money Machine is now fourteen years old. And is selling better than ever. But the last remaining mountain of them has just vanished out of my storeroom. So a revision would seem to be in order. Probably the greatest indicator of your ongoing enthUSiasm Is how long you can keep your copy of an ISMM before it gets permanently ripped off. The average time seems to be fifteen weeks. A half life, sort of. Or maybe a time between reincarnations. I guess I am not into revisionism, so I won't. With a few obvious adaptions, most of this book is as accurate and as useful now as It was then.

  • A Man Git Dis Yella Water in His Blood
    1 A MAN GIT DIS YELLA WATER IN HIS BLOOD : The Evolution of Blues Poetry and Performance Sara Rutherford A man in too-loose blue jeans and a half-buttoned maroon shirt, stretched wife-beater beneath, walks onto a makeshift stage and clears his throat. He grabs the microphone with a quick, assertive movement and his shoulder length dreadlocks sway. “I call this ‘Born a Nigger‘ he says, and begins to recite in a slow, syncopated rhythm a poem about a young man who is trying to understand himself and his race in relation to what society has labeled him. The rough, melodic words intermingle with the soft din of glasses clinking and the muffled conversation of audience members in the back. “When I was a boy/rocks stuck in my shoes/because they had no sole (soul)/like me,” he says, gesturing wide with his free hand, “like me before I heard/words that sang my tune.” It is a Thursday night in a small coffee shop in Midtown Memphis, and you can hear music drifting in from other bars and restaurants lining the street – Coltrane, a jazz cover band with an overpowering lead guitarist, modern rock. The man’s voice drowns the music to a hush and his words make their own rhythm. This is performance poetry, a “Poetry Slam” as it is contemporarily called, and usually consists of ten to fifteen poets performing and being judged on the quality and delivery of their original works. Most are regulars, African Americans in their late twenties or early thirties, and unknowns outside of the Memphis poetry circle.

  • Hungarian Composer and Pianist Béla Viktor János Bartók
    Hungarian composer and pianist Béla Viktor János Bartók lived a life of 65 years straddling two centuries (1881 ~ 1945) that arguably saw more social, cultural and technological upheaval than almost any other span of time before or after. In choosing him as namesake for their latest streaming digital renderer, preamplifier, headphone amplifier, and entry-level Debussy DAC replacement, Data Conversion Systems (dCS) seem to be acknowledging their latest creation straddles not only the 20th and 21st centuries with its technological prowess, but the gap between two-channel high fidelity and headphones as well. Traditional hi-fi and the personal audio space have seen their fair share of technological and social disruption occurring in the past two decades in part due to the meteoric rise of the binary audiophile, and the realization by burgeoning headphone aficionados that you can curate serious high-fidelity rigs for the home. Both manifestations are currencies in recorded-playback’s monetary system, and by striking them into a single, two-sided coin dCS is banking on audiophiles preferring a single box to numerous ones. The Bartók can be used as the digital source of a two-channel separates system, slotting in as a high- end streaming UPnP DAC/preamplifier with both single-ended and balanced outputs for directly driving a power amp or monoblocs – just add an iOS or Android device to control it – or as the sole device required in a binary-based asynchronous renderer/home headphone rig of impeccable standards. Or it can be both at once. The dCS Bartók Network DAC and Headphone Amplifier.
