| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? I have two push-pull class AB amplifiers. One is 40 watt/ch with EL34 tubes and the other is 100 watt/60 watt(UL/Triode).The bigger amp is one of the best PP amps I`ve heard it uses 6550/KT 88/KT90 etc. This was my main amp,top choice for driving ... | |
| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? Kijanki,I believe your right in that the vast majority of amplifiers use some degree of NFB.I think DHT SET amps are a small niche that can be the exception.Regards, | |
| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? I don`t agree that 'every' amplifier has NFB. There are some DHT SET amplifiers that lack NFB in their circuit.Some of these types of tubes are linear enough so that it is`nt necessary.My amp is one example(unless Israel Blume told me a fib,and I ... | |
| Why do audiophiles shun feedback in amplifiers? Dracule1,I don`t agree with the myth description.It just depends on the amplifier`s chosen output devices and the particular speaker being driven.What good is it to reduce 2nd order harmonics to extreme levels and then replace it with odd high ord... | |
| New level of ridiculousness Some people equate cost with better sound quality and it is`nt that strong a correlation in high end audio IMO.This is why I`m an advocate of an open market and free enterprise. People are free to purchase what that want without a need to explain ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Volleyguy,Reading your description of the CAST capacitor is inspiring.I can`t wait to get my pair of CAST for my tweeter crossovers.Come on Duelund,I`ve been waiting over 11 weeks already!Regards, | |
| Top Speaker Cables for SET System- under $5k used Sutts,The bass performance of the Ocellia is superb and well balanced,just nice and natural without over emphasizing the region.Regards, | |
| New level of ridiculousness I share the same viewpoint as Elizabeth. Why care or be envious/jealous of what adults do with their disposable income?Maril555, there are many people(I would`nt) who`d question your judgement in owning 30k speakers and a 19K preamp for example.No... | |
| Top Speaker Cables for SET System- under $5k used Hi Sutts,The best match and sounding speaker cable I`ve used is the Ocellia Silver Reference. Its sonic character is fabulously nautral-organic with superb resolution,tone and transparency.The maker of this cable believes in the superiority of nat... | |
| Best Pre/Amp or Integrated for Zu Essence Gopher,Is the Melody 211 SET really that much better than the often praised Decware Torii? That`s interesting.Regards, | |
| 6Moons.com vs. Stereo Times Nonoise,well said.Regards, | |
| 6Moons.com vs. Stereo Times Syntax,Good example you gave above. No matter what format or guidelines chosen,some body somewhere is`nt going to like it. It just is not possible to please everyone especially with subjective material as audio reviews. People eventually find thei... | |
| 6Moons.com vs. Stereo Times Roscoeiii,Yes I agree, Srajan`s reviews are exceptional in their detail and augmented with comparisons with competing components. I always feel as I have a good grasp on what a component sounds like once I`ve read the review.Some will like his sty... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Volleyguy,Does the dynamic character you describe sound artificial and hifi? In reading about the CAST the one common agreed upon factor(that got me interested) was its sheer natural sound and presentation. Some said this is apparent brand new out... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Volleyguy,What exactly are yuo hearing that led you to post about "energy lost" in regard to this current CAST capacitor compared to the other caps you mentioned?Regards, |
