| Balanced/Unbalanced --- Whats the difference? Ok I found the search, sorry for that guys. | |
| Balanced/Unbalanced --- Whats the difference? Thanks Tobias, I got all of that.Shadorne, I would've run a search but, believe it or not, I cant seem to be able to locate a search button on this forum. Can anyone tell me where to find it?Thanks | |
| DK Design VS.1 Reference mkII - Optimization This may be a dumb question but I believe tubes need biasing (dont know what that means though). Anyway, do designs like DK and BAT and McIntosh offer a feature where the biasing is done automatically since I'm quite apprehensive of doing this mys... |
