Amp Specs esp. DampFactor : Citation, Adcom, etc.
Atkinson's measurements are with steady-state signals. They tell you *something*, but how the amp behaves with a non-repetitive waveform is really much more important. In my opinion.Aewhistory, you might be surprised to find out that research abou... 
Best Balanced Tube Amp To Pair With Meridian G02?
Nightfall, there is another alternative. Its possible to operate our amps with less than the full complement of power tubes. So if you have a set of M-60s, you could run them with 4 or 6 power tubes instead of 8. The M-60 was also made in the long... 
Schroder sq and the new talea
One candispute his wording (inherent value of objects) but nothis physical inclination. The nature does not care about our feelings nor about our thinking. The arrogance of homosapince is self-deceit. Our 'mother nĂ¡ture' don't care about us.Yes. I... 
Best Balanced Tube Amp To Pair With Meridian G02?
However, I have since been told that your amplifiers only perform optimally when linked with one of the preamps of your own design, unfortunately.Most of the reviews you might have seen on our amps have been done for the most part with single-ende...

We use 12AT7s for phono gain. You can't get bandwidth with 12AX7s.Installing the afore-mentioned values on the loading terminals of the preamp would have done the trick.With higher impedance cartridges like this, the loading does become more of a ...

I still believe that true value in the sense of the word has nothing to do with declaration or point of view of people but with its inherent quality.This seems inherently contradictory. There is no 'objective' viewpoint to be had; we are all human...

With just about any amplifier it would be under $250.00.With tube amplifiers, normally the grid of the input tube is driven by the input signal. Since we want to do balanced (because it sounds better), we will have an inverted signal to work with ...

However - a roman gladius, its blade made from the special alloy produced by a certain celtic tribe in the area of lake Chiemsee in southern Bavaria ( because the soil there was contaminated by millions of fragments from an exploded comet which ex... 
Question for Atmasphere re: class A output calc
Hi Glen, given your numbers above I would say that's pretty close, without knowing more about the amp. For example, for the purpose of this example, the base current has been ignored.

Dertonarm,And sorry - no, I do not think that something simply has the value that people put on it.I still have the naive thinking, that the real contend -i.e.: the inherent quality ( in the very sense of the word ) of a product/something ultimate... 
Question for Atmasphere re: class A output calc
Gbart,Lets assume a 0.1556A standing current on a push pull output stage.Can you tell me, is this the total current between two output devices, or is just one? There is an interpretive issue there. Are we talking about transistors here? Is the res... 
E V Patricians-- JBL Hartsfields- Your choice
Weseixas, I did see a JBL speaker at RMAF. It had the horn on top, rotated 90 degrees from the traditional alignment, which is a good idea as this would favor horizontal dispersion. The tweeter horn was molded into the top.It was not a large speak...

I think there is. This is just my opinion of course, but I think we need a standard signal burst, one that last for about 1 second or so, that is completely non-repetative.The instrument would then compare the amplifier's output to the original. T...

I also find it odd that the Triplanar is not mentioned, if for no other reason that with a casual glance at the Talea, you see the trademark VTA tower and tunable weight system of the Triplanar. Its kind of hard to miss.The Triplanar uses a bearin... 
E V Patricians-- JBL Hartsfields- Your choice
Classic Audio Loudspeakers got their start reproducing the Hartsfield.The last time I heard one of his, he had a different woofer in it from the original. That speaker was playing bass way below the limits that it had in the 1950s!
