Schroder sq and the new talea
Nandric, I hope one would not attempt to refute a literary work but simply enjoy it for what it is. We certainly do that with a fine wine :)Philosophy is much the same idea- it is not knowledge (although it can and does get applied to knowledge- f... 
Schroder sq and the new talea
Nandric, I too have difficulties with Heidegger's philosophy, but mostly on the grounds that philosophy itself is never knowledge. Philosophy is/are merely reasons, and as such, entirely made up to justify a behavior.IMO vision is what makes a thi... 
Amp Specs esp. DampFactor : Citation, Adcom, etc.
Aewhistory, for the most part I think you will find that a low THD indicates a greater amount of feedback (with it accompanying distortion of the 5th, 7th and 9th harmonics) rather than a 'cleaner' signal path.IOW, if anything it appears that ther...

Seriously, I doubt that anyone could make serious progress in an audio design without understanding how the human ear/brain system works.Some of this research is very new. The bit that I mentioned about how the processing moves from one part of th...

Good Luck.If you are not thinking, then you are present. This is not possible with thought; your thoughts are trying to convince you that they *are* you, and seek to place you in the past or the future; neither is a place where anything happened o... 
E V Patricians-- JBL Hartsfields- Your choice
Weseixas, I did hear those speakers too, but I thought they were TADs when I saw the side by side woofers. I really couldn't tell you anything about that system, though I can say that the speakers did not seem to attract attention to themselves (a...

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...

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... 
Best Balanced Tube Amp To Pair With Meridian G02?
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.
