One can not generalize a tube's performance outside of its topology. Wikipedia is wrong.

Definitely don't attempt to learn anything about circuit design in your later years. Once you realize how many ways you can building simple circuit elements and how these are "chosen" by designers, then you would probably be paralyzed completely.

Ok. What if the topology offered in the BH is better than the KGSS? You would avoid it just because it has more perceived flexibility?

Agreed. BJT > DMOS

The advantage of canned air (I believe) is its typically ESD safe.

I am considering moving around in 2015. It would be a bit of a career ladder killer, but something I am getting more and more convinced that the time is right... I have a call next week with our President to discuss some options and not sure what to ask for, so thinking a lot about that tonite..

The new Wima DCP4 seems to be quite impressive and fit the bill. Anyone tried these?

Any recommendations on a very compact 47uF/400v (-ish) film capacitor? Smaller the better.

Do you have a significant DC component to your line voltage?

Yeah, this is definitely the right idea.

I though Santa could warp the space-time continuum. Seems reasonable to me, assuming the sleigh is involved.

Snake Soup

Like, on the bottom side? You only have yourself to blame for that

i7. Seriously.

Wait, there's a new Cavalli amp?

Meat

That's why they make the Quatro wood. Easily one of the best speakers I have ever heard and one of the few that has "engineering" that is worth paying for.

You might like Haratio Hornblower then.

I assume so. I need to verify.

I have my wife's account in my iCloud family settings and perhaps because of this, when anyone facetimes her, it calls me. Anyone know how to disable this, or perhaps it's due to another setting somewhere?

Try again in the iPhone thread?

Anything with a high impedance.

Complication. Why involve a relay when you don't really need to? If we want to talk about a power amp with a 1kV toroid and mF of capacitance, sure lets talk. That's not what we have here.
