jtriffo ::: Favorites as for hifi stuff, they benefit from any of what makes tubes great for guitar, because you have a whole band getting thrown at it, and the tubes aren't flat or linear, so you end up with an uphill battle and you haven't even made a circuit to support it yet. Then you have to pay a amp tech to bias the tubes if you dont know how, and you have to replace the tubes every couple years, and capacitors every 5-8 so the maintenance cost really kills any benefit you think you might be getting. 07-07-17 21:22:56 _____________________________________________________
jtriffo ::: Favorites now, speakers only have an impeadance of 2-16 ohms, so to match the outputs correctly you need a transformer, in guitar amps, they're made so that the iorn core of the transformer achieves magnetic saturation at a low level creating essentially a midband filter which takes the sound, which is probably distorting to saturate the core, and rolls the highs and lows off, so you get a warm smooth middle, and, it takes the clipped waveform and smooths the edges off, so it sounds better. 07-07-17 21:12:48 _____________________________________________________
jtriffo ::: Favorites ooh wrong you've been programed to think that, but if you knew a damn thing about audio amplifiers you wouldn't touch tubes for sound reproduction. the only real use for them now is guitar amplifiers, and thats because they arent even close to flat or linear, its just that when you deal with a guitar signal those things can sound good if you control them right, and the fact that tube amps have an extremely high output impedance. 07-07-17 21:06:49 _____________________________________________________

percydood ::: Favorites Aaarrggghhh! Firstly, I wish that the 'journalists' knew what they were talking about without obviously having to read it. Secondly, considering the price is in GBP, they are valves and thermionic ones at that. Thirdly, she could have switched it on and fourthly, why spend all that money on a wonderful amp and play MP3 through it??!! Yeah, I'm a snob. Bah, humbug... 07-07-17 15:25:59 _____________________________________________________
