There is a physiological reason for this and it also coincides with the broad resonance seen at approximately 3.5 kHz on the classic Fletcher-Munson family of loudness curves. The ear canal forms a

Recently, at least three manufacturers have taken calibration of their products seriously. I believe Alpha (4510/4520), Array Solutions (PowerMaster), and now Larry Phipps' LP-100 product are calibr

This brings up a point I've often considered... Is grid damage resulting from over-drive primarily the result of instantaneous high Ig, or is it more from a combination of both high Ig and duration?

Anodizing aluminum increases themicity and results in a substantially better heat radiator over that of bare aluminum. The vast majority of heat-sinks are anodized, usually black or gold. The anodiz

Agreed, Will. If you look my original message, I was speaking in terms of heat dissipation and not device heat transfer. I found some information concerning heat-sink design that may be of interest
