Yes and points well taken as well. Basically, AA has always been primarily a hobbists venue. I sure don't try to verify any technical data and all our moderators together probably read less than 5-10% of total posts. We get about 10 Million page views a month and hundreds if not thousands of new posts a day.I'm sorry to hear about the back biting. I get it too in a different way and have just come to accept that everyone won't like my product and my way of doing things. Oh well, you please those that you can.
This board in particular does get the SET religion going. I admit to being enamoured with them, how low can you go? But I've heard great EL34 amps and OTLs and lots of other stuff, even sand amps. If there's overt misinformation, let us know. Post a response.
We've never selectively deleted information to skew a point of view. And we don't delete and archive to skew a position though I admit you might find a contenious topic or two trimed and archived. If you find a suspicious one, let me know. I've got logs and can find out what was deleted.
Anyway, when you've got the blind leading the blind, you'll find them stuck in the corner now and then. We surely welcome expert opinions and knowledge.
BTW: I think the name Steve was registered to another inmate so that the (i) link goes to another person. Registering on your part would resolve that confusion.
I also noticed your exchange with Gordon and am pleased that you've resolved those questions. It brings the question of AC versus DC heaters to mind. I've heard that the AC heater level on the 300B and other SETs can be a source of hum. JA implied in the Stereophile article that using DC would solve that problem. Yet, I suspect that this is yet another trade off. Any thoughts on that from anyone?
