Electron Movement through Solids – Energy Bands and Semiconductors

Possibly Howard Dumble was correct.   Materials vary greatly in their ability to conduct electron flow. A digitalization may take place that has bearing on sound quality and overall performance, fidelity and response. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYYWZhsgVPc   Electron movement through solids is a fundamental concept in condensed matter physics and semiconductor technology. In a solid material, such … Read more

Regarding why semiconductors inherently sound unpleasant when used at audio frequencies

Here are some possible reasons.  There are differing theories, thoughts; apparently, some people honestly can not hear the difference.  But, some can. The purpose and goal of semiconductors was always primarily cheapness (to make and operate) and also high-frequency operation — sound quality was never a goal or purpose. If but at a microscopic level, … Read more
