NVA doing a NVA BMU Bake-off
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2018 6:20 pm
Playing with a comparison between no BMU - miniBMU - BMU.
System CD player into my cheap chinese dac, into P90sa into the traded in mk1 A80s. TSCS speaker cable, SSP interconnect, Cube 2 speakers.
No BMU = irritating, driving me mad, sometime good, sometimes as though I am fighting to hear through to the music, normally with a sense of relief after 10pm it starts to sing.
miniBMU = better, when connected to the starter system or smaller amps or just the CD player it does the job, the music opens up more. BUT the effect of my fecking awful mains is still apparent just not as bad. BUT with the bigger power amps I still get the feeling I need something more.
BMU = bliss, problem gone. Now across the day variation in my musical pleasure has dropped to a background sort of might be problem instead of me knowing it is there and irritating the hell out of me.
The more I play with this business of mains the more I realise how bad mine is, this is what has motivated me to explore it and look for cures and reasons.
BTW none of this is to do with buzzing transformers, that is a separate issue - this is all about music and what the BMU does to it.
