I'm not an RF engineer (or any kind of engineer, for that matter), so please excuse the dumb question.

What's the problem with 12V, and what are the advantages of going to 24v or even 48v?
Quieter devices available at these voltages?

BTW, if you look at how the FT-102 achieved the good dynamic range, they did
it by running their mixers with 24v instead of 12v.
Makes you wonder why they don't do that today, doesn't it!

Thanks for reminding us that it wasn't always as bad as it is today.
