Goodness comes to those who vibrate
At its core, a curve tracer generates an I-V (Current-Voltage) curve. It does this by actively varying (sweeping) the voltage applied to a component and simultaneously measuring the precise amount of current that flows through it at each voltage step. Sweeping (2-Terminal Devices): For a simple component like a resistor or a diode, the curve … Read more
Hot-Potato’d from buyer to buyer, Chinese equity firm HONGSHAN last paid $1.1 billion. I live in Milton Keynes and have had drum lessons from him. Amazing strict time drummer. I remember in the late 70’s he had a music shop in Queensway in Bletchley. I also lived across the road from Terry Marshall in an … Read more
“That crackling sound that you’re hearing is all of the lightning activity on the planet.” 5:00 in let’s ignore the work of Luigi Rota w/ earth currents/frequencies /battery piles/aeroballistique levitation , patents, &c circa 1920… after all, it’s a waste of time nowadays w/ Tesla’s AC power degaussing the planet… Transcript
I’m a Logic user but over 10 years ago there was a plugin made for CuBase that introduced noise at -384dB (completely inadiable) which reduced CPU overhead from 40% down to 5%. Good video. As a computer engineer, I just wanted to clarify what subnormal numbers are and how they work. To do that, let’s … Read more
Dumble’s Crystalline Lattice Explore deeply howard dumble, dumble amplifiers, design of circuit to have one rail that is voltage-reduced by series resistors, such that bigger loads occur earlier in the supply; how voltage hits by bigger loads also consequently pull-down lower-voltage stages earlier in the signal path thru amp. dig deeply into semiconductor physics RE … Read more
The Yin-Yang Audio Amplifier Test Regarding stuff like this https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=”HI-Res”+tube+car+amp I’m wondering if anyone has accomplished tests in which the positive lead of the speaker is driven by Primary Amp Under Test (PAUT) while the negative lead of the speaker is driven by the Secondary Amp Under Test (SAUT), both amplifiers being fed the same … Read more
Capacitors vs Sound Quality Deep Dive – Effects of Capacitor Materials and Construction on Signal Quality and Audio Performance https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=capacitors+sound+quality A deep dive into how various capacitor materials and constructions audibly and measurably affect audio and signal quality. This includes both objective measurements (like THD, TIMD, slew rate, inductance, etc.) and subjective perception from the … Read more
“Chinese Cheap” – Stupidity and Sabotage disguised as Progress – Beware ChatGPT also Saboteur against reality It is important to be plain and clear…and accurate. Panasonic exited the cap market. It was both an overall cheapening — at the expense of all customers — and it was also a sabotage attempt that actually worked. The … Read more
