Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl?
The only "high level performance" is in my amplifiers. 
Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl?
I think at this point I would be better off returning to this thread when I have put together an illustration of the total process. I will have something I can post to my website as well. I need to have something the average person can relate to.T...

@atmasphere " Therefore I can only conclude that this 'effect' is non-existent "Do you honestly think I'm blowing smoke or selling snake oil?Don't worry I'm going to convince you that I'm right when I can figure a way to explain it in your own co...

I'm not trying to be difficult. In fact..." That has nothing to do with the speed of electromagnetic waves passing through circuits at damn near the speed of light."He (Kosst) still is referring to the wrong speed.Electricity travels at pretty mu...

kosst_amojan,Thanks for being civil and open minded. I will be happy to fill out your form. You need to give me time to generate the math on a sample of this phenomenon. In fact I was going over some figures that I thought might allow more underst...

Again with all due respect.."Amps don't cause pitch variation"This is in fact a false assumption. They can and do cause pitch variation.This is not something I suspect (as in theory) - it is something I know (as in proof)I started out years ago wi...

Yes I am not talking about slew rates like volts/us.The velocity spec is that the output velocity must = the input velocity.By default the signal entering the circuit has a horizontal (time domain) velocity of Mach One because the music was captur...

Please refrain from wise guy answers. Thank you.

Let me ask a simple question of anyone reading this post. This might lead to an understanding of what I'm talking about. It also may pull your thinking slightly outside the box.Do you know what part or area of a circuit determines the signal to no... 
Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl?
With all due respect I'm still not sure what you are asking.If you want to know the value of the output velocity it equals the input velocity +/- zero.It does not add any acceleration or de-acceleration.The sound of a circuit is the signature of h...

I am not talking specifically about power amps. It applies to all circuitry, phono stages, line stages, and analog back ends in DACs.This is why if you listen to older recordings made in an all vacuum tube studio using tube mic preamps, they are t...

Amplifiers that do not control this property are not constant (unstable) and as a result have varying degrees of smear or focus issues based on microscopic time warps.Ok here is the answer to the age old question "why do tube amps sound better eve...

The spec for the velocity along the horizontal (time domain) axis = constant 
Are future improvements in Amp/PreAmps slowing to a crawl?
Actually you just pointed out something that I'm sorry I was not more clear about and it might cause confusion. You are describing speed as in vertical (like slew rate) how fast can it switch between power supply rails.Velocity is not measured ver...

@parrotbee " I guess the loss of distortion has become a single minded pursuit for many amp maker - HAlcro; Neodio; LAvardin - do they not address 'velocity' already?"This is a good question and the answer is no.The reason is because you need a m...
