RE: Arrival after a long resistor journey

You're a pretty condescending SOB, aren't you? I stated quite clearly that I have already made numerous experiments with different resistor types, and I shared my experiences with the forum. I didn't "somehow settle" on a particular alloy, but meticulously investigated and selected candidates and then gave them extensive trials. Manganin wire has properties that make it eminently suitable for use a resistor. My vision is pretty clear, but you seem to be obsessed with thermocouple material. What do you have to offer other than mystery materials with unknown sonic qualities? Must I explore every conductive alloy before I arrive at a satisfactory conclusion? It's hardly religious fervor to be happy with what one's got instead of endlessly chasing rainbows.

Instead of throwing darts at others, perhaps you'd be willing to share some practical knowledge gleaned from your own experiments.

And this has nothing to do with a phono circuit. Where did you get that harebrained idea? Did you even read and comprehend the original post?

Get the picture, guy?
berate is 8 and benign is 9
