RIAA, Questions only please
Here is something to consider. What if we didnt use RIAA or any EQ in making a record. If we recorded a constant voltage sweep from 20 to 20Khz and looked at it under a microscope what might we see? When we played the final product what would a vo... 
RIAA, Questions only please
@rauliruegas   I'm an analog lover and MUSIC lover I am curious how you avoid both digital and vinyl. That leaves tape. 
RIAA, Questions only please
sorry I didnt know about Locking. However, in my opinion the original thread was an embarassment to all. To take a simple technical question/concept and bury it, as it had been, with opinion, off topic commentary and an argument between myself and... 
RIAA, Questions only please
At this rate I doubt this post will last long. We are already off topic. Sorry if you miss the old post. Several members posted such long and confucing replies I could hardly get through them myself. I have nothing to gain here. Im not going to wi... 
RIAA, Questions only please
@cleeds  I agree. I followed the thread closely, even though I never commented in it. It's unfortunate that now no one can follow that discussion. I am glad you were following the thread. I am happy to keep it going here if we can get on track a...

@test It's too bad that the previous thread is now locked as it contained a lot of insightful and useful information. I personally get more from a discussion than I do from a lecture.  The problem with the previous thread is that is that the beh... 
Tube Question for Audiophriends
This tube is simply a high gm pentode (much like a 6922). https://frank.pocnet.net/sheets/009/e/E280F.pdfFrom the genus white paper it is being used triode connected to drive a larger output tube. Nothing special going on here. Lets get used to th... 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
can you find the thread. I had no luck.  
MAC Autoformers?
@toshkolPlease spell out an abbreviation the first time you use it. What is Le to you? Leakage inductance?Prove you wrong about what? Thats not what I am here for. :)

I forgot the great Leak and Quad amps, low powered but wonderful. They are indeed. The Leak is a rather standard circuit as I recall. However the QUAD 2 has a very interesting circuit. Unique, thoughtful.I sell more of my 35 watt than my 100 wa...

@atmasphere To the third, a correct answer requires a correct question- the **response** is not raised; the **pre-emphasis** is, and by about 5 db (so the simple answer is thus 'no'). Remember that the curve is just that and is the amalgam of thre... 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
RalphThanks for the link. It is clear to me that above and below 1 KHZ there is 6 dB of EQ on either side of the red line, making a total of 12 dB as stated before.To be clear I am not talking about what is fed to the velocity sensitive cutting he... 
Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open.
 @atmasphere Ralph, How about a curve. People here cant understand what you said, can anyone?Can you ever give a simple answer?From 500 Hz to 2000 Hz the response on the record is lifted at a rate of 6 dB/octave for two octaves. Thats 12 db total.... 
This question is aimed to TRUE Elec Engineers, not fuse or wire directionality believers.
@cakyol Has any of you ACTUALLY worked with and recommend a SSR which does not introduce any audible distortion on the speaker line and which can operate with a large range of trigger voltages (12 - 48 VDC, may need to have on board voltage regul...

@atmasphere  Does anyone find this interesting or alarming that we call the RIAA curve the big one and not make much mention that it is for velocity transducers only?Ralph please explain your comment below.No. Its well understood that is the case...
