DSP UNIT and/or connectors gone bad! TS950SDX

Hi y'all Voodoo Heads and Audiophiles! My trusty TS950SDX has been developing intermittent cutting off of receive and transmit signal over time....... Now, this has been getting worse over time and presently, the SDX does"hear" signals, but no AUDIO, just S meter showing strength of signals as I dia...

Looking to sell venerable TS950SDX

Hi y'all, Looking to part ways with the venerable Kenwood TS950SDX to take the plunge into SDR. Hate to do it, but gotta move on and start learning new stuff. The rig is unmodded but sure does generate some fantabulous audio (has a 4K INRAD filter in too). Prefer local pick-up in the Dallas-Fort Wor...

Just an "outlandish" thought here with regard to the audio as I am guessing that a tube mic will only truly come into its own if my signal at the receiving end is +20/30dB over S9! The warmth and analog "signature" will really shine under those conditions. Of course, this is a gross oversimplificati...

Ray, Peter did respond to my email, but only to say that he would let me know if a mic would cross his way. I may have a line on one here in the U.S. As this dual tube mic weighs over 4 pounds (around 4.4"), where did you go shopping for a boom to keep it suspended? I have no desk-space so I would n...

TSM Muneo Mic

Hey there Audioray :-) I don't blame you for not wanting to part with yours. They no longer sell them in Sweden of course, but would you remember the name of the company that did sell them? I seem to recall seeing the call of a guy in Sweden (SM5???) who had several of them I think..... Hunt goes on...

TSM Muneo Mic

Hi y'all Audiophiles and VooDoo Heads!

Any idea if a TSM Muneo Mic could be had? It is pretty rare deal out there in the "Microphonium" world these days perhaps, but would be curious to learn what the chances of landing one might be :lol: ?

Cheers,

DAW Advice

Hi y'all Voodoo Gurus ad Audio Heads! Yeah, I know my answer may not be on the money but I have found working with VST Hosts very easy and have yet to get the hang of DAW ;-) My PC is not fast enough for a real DAW so I am running a VST Host as my platform of choice. I have used hardware gear (still...

SDR Dongle

Hey there!

Got interested in learning how you hooked up everything using the SDR dongle to help visualize audio on transmit/receive?

Sure would appreciate a brief on the set-up.

RCA Command Series 5751 in a tube condenser?

Howdy y'all, Luckily I still have my MXL V69 Mogami Edition tube condenser as it is starting to sound pretty decent : )) I swapped out the original tube and replaced it with a NOS made in West Germany that did make a perceptible difference in the audio! Now, I think that mic expects to see an 12AT7 ...

Hi y'all! Been playing audio for some time now and have decided to part with my Behringer gear and get something else instead :-) The gear has worked great but I just want to try something different (again). Would prefer selling all FOUR pieces as a "bundle" if feasible. If that doesn't work, well, ...

Hey Bill! Very good of you to share this for everyone's benefit :D Now, since emailing last, I'd used my two other rigs and have absolutely no RFI and amp appears to be working like it always had!

Strange things happening with my TS 950 SDX (and amp?)

Hi y'all VooDoo Gurus and AudioPhiles! This question may not "belong" in this forum but wanted to post this as there are many who really know the TS950 SDX so well 8) Note, the amp I am using is the Ameritron AL-811H (I purchased a set of brand-new tubes that Ameritron said were a matched, neutraliz...

RCA FAA Command 5751 Black Plates

Hi y'all VooDoo Gurus and AudioPhiles!! I know that RCA Command series 5751 Black Plates are really sweet-sounding tubes with a rich low end and plenty harmonics and I will be getting some for my next mic pre-amp! Will probably play around with "plain" RCA 5751 Black Plates too. Now, can anyone tell...

Hey VooDoo Guru! After installing the set of 4 matched tubes that I received, I went on the air again and did enjoy "SWR spike free" operating for about 30 minutes after which the spikes reappeared! Perhaps this was just a fluke? I also tried operating the 950SDX using a regular hand mic (just in ca...

Hi y'all! Guess what?? I opened up the AMP and found one dead tube and a second one that was acting up and looking pretty suspicious.
