Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Re: That's what I was thinking....


Very few high-end designers rely solely on measurements, but measurements do play a crucial role in any amplifier design, even if the designer himself refuses to make them. Bear in mind that anyone who uses a triode vacuum-tube in their amplifier is the direct beneficiary of thousands of hours of test and measurment work in the optimization process that led to the Western Electric 300B, the RCA 2A3, etc.

Certainly. But for the designer, it's ultimately the end result that counts. No one can listen to JUST a 300B tube. The tube is merely one element among a number of other elements which combine to give us what we ultimately listen to in the end.
