| Why the limit on warranty to subsequent purchasor? Is there any tube equipment with transferable warranty? | |
| Is there an advantage to more tubes in an amp? Sean,Although tubes have substantially larger operating tolerances the number of tubes for the same power is substantially smaller than the number of transistors that will add-up in result the same or even larger operating tolerances.In all cases ... | |
| Minimum Amp power for spkr performance There are many reference tables and manufacturer recommendations but indeed I've realized that all sencitivity or efficiency ratings of all high-end speakers des not go bellow 87dB/W/m and decided to check-by-comparison. That brings me to the thou... | |

Preamps can also be as SA102 direct-coupled.The risk of havin... | |
| Passive parts: Do they make a difference ? Sean,It's realy realy great that we do have that luxury of choice of elements here. Not often larger circuit complexity means longer signal path and proper design is valuable even with expencive parts since someday they will deplete and won't perf... | |
