What is "micing tenthrate pub acts"?

Mr. Jute has, to my utter dismay, perpetrated a near-unpardonable
grammatical sin.

He has used "micing," a convention in popular circulation
among the singularly clueless fader-jocks and other
audio industry ****s. I commented on this back in
July, 2004 (among other times unfortunately all too
numerous) in a post replying to the question of what
can and what cannot be considered an acronym.
It's a singularly fine rant, and bears repetition.

It is again renderered hereinunder, for the edification
of the clueless and the gentle correction of Mr. Jute,
whose skill with the English language I usually respect.

As the OLAGOTEFI (Official Lexicographer And Grammarian
Of The Entire ****ing Internet [which is in itself an
acronym, pronounced oh-LAG-oh-TEFF-ee, minor accent on
syllable two, major accent on syllable four]) the Lord
must agree.

In order for a series of letters to be considered an
acronym, it must form a pronounceable word. "FBI"
(Fat Boys Institute" and "FOH" (Fat Old Hippie) are
not pronounceable words.

"Scuba," "radar," "jeep" (the Lord wagers most folks don't
know where that one came from, and no fair looking it up)
and the like all *started* as abbreviations, but soon
thereafter became words due to their prounounceable nature.
The more euphonious the construction, the quicker it evolved
into common usage as a pronounced non-abbreviation. Part of
the present confusion arises from the fact that it is customary
(nowadays) to eliminate the periods from the letter groups
which are unpronounceable and still considered to be abbreviations.
"F.B.I." and "F.O.H." are the technically correct forms for our
two examples, and with the inclusion of the periods, no-one
attempts to treat them as anything but what they are -
unpronounceable abbreviations. In the case of "S.C.U.B.A." (Some
Come Up Barely Alive) the transition was understandably swift.
It is, in the popular lexicon, a bitchin' fine-sounding word,
and great fun to say.

Which brings the Lord to one of His pet peeves: Alnico. Why
is it that many otherwise highly intelligent audio professionals
insist on pronouncing this word "al-KNEE-co"? Please, "everybody
does it" is no excuse. Any dictionary you wish to look in (provided
it has been compiled by a true lexicographer/etymologyst, and not
some smart-ass audio****** fool) will give you the correct
pronunciation for this word: "AL (rhymes with 'gal') ni (as in
'nick') coh." Accent on the first syllable, short I, long O.
Try it: AL-nick-oh. Alnico. See how it rolls off the tongue
when pronounced correctly. This word was formed from the chemical
symbols of the three metals which make up the alloy: ALuminum (or
ALuminium, for you Limeys), NIckel, and CObalt. Note the word
"nickel." If it is customary for you to say "NEE-cull" when
pronouncing that word, then fine - you may say "al-KNEE-co."
Otherwise, smarten up and say it correctly. And before any of you
audio assholes take the Lord to task over this, just remember: next
time you hear president Bush (or ex-president Carter, come to think
of it, who ought to know better, having been a nuclear power engineer
in the Navy) say "NUKE-you-lur," you'll have to keep your mouths shut.
And you know you can't do that, so - AL-nick-oh.

Don't even get the Lord started on "mic," which by any interpretation
of the rules of pronunciation for English must be enunciated as
"mick." The downright obstinate use of the ungainly and confusing
shortened form of "microphone" leads to embarrasing constructions
like "micing" (*must* rhyme with "icing," sorry, shut the ****
up) instead of the instantly recognizable and pronounceable
"miking." (Rhymes with "hiking" - see how that works?) "Miked."
(Rhymes with "hiked.") And "mike" is the proper representation
of the abbreviated form of "microphone." I want all of you to
do something you've never done befo step away from your
monitors and pick up a dictionary. Use a good one, a real one,
not one of those "Audio Cyclopedia" bull**** rags. Look up "mic."
Look up "miced." And "micing." Did you find 'em ok? No? Now,
slowly, carefully...look up "mike."

I ****ing told you so.

[Peter Wieck]

Andrew JuteMcCoy exuded:

A bunch of lies, quarter-truths and self-serving drivel.

Every one of which was as accurate and credible as its statements on
Peter Drucker, as follows:

(1) Peter Drucker was the greatest theorist of applied economics
business management) who ever lived.


(2) Yes, my darlings, I know where the Philadelphia is, and I know
where New York is, but if we're dropping names, what's few miles?
Reminds me of the time when the chairman of my ad agency had this
brilliant idea (he was always having brilliant ideas unless we were
extra-vigilant): we would hire Drucker as a consultant. So a deputation

of the directors went immediately to Drucker's office to make him an
offer he couldn't refuse. My chairman was a huge fellow in his early
thirties with short, very blond hair. The rest of us were muscular
young men (high-profile sporting achievements were essential to rising
in our organization -- that's how we met most of our clients) of
definitely Aryan stock. We all wore double-welted leather-soled shoes
from Lobb in London and you can bet your ass a bunch of young guys who
earned seven-figure sums walked down this long passage before Drucker's

office with heel-clattering confidence; most of us had been in the
military somewhere (this was still in the age of conscription, where to

avoid forcible induction you did ROTC) so we clattered in step, like a
firing squad marching. Drucker was a Hungarian, a refugee from the
Nazis... One of the PA flung the door open dramatically and we bent our

heads to get through the door, then stormed up to a halt before the
desk behind which this little guy cowered. My chairman said, "We have
come for you!" Drucker stuttered, "I'm an American citizen now!"
Needless to say, we didn't succeed in hiring him.
_____________________________________


The above drivel was exuded by Mr. McCoy in search of a boost for what
passes for its ego.

Parsing it, the following Actual Facts would tend to suggest otherwise.
I claim a familial connection here as Mr. Drucker and my father went to
Law School together and remained better than acquaintances until my
father's death in 1972.

1. Mr. Drucker was Austrian, and the child of a high-level bureaucrat
in the Austrian government. He had no reason by race or religion to
fear or dislike Hitler.
2. Mr. Drucker left Germany as a matter of conscience. He first went to
England, from there to the United States. My father and he left Germany
at the same time, for the same reasons and on the same transport. From
there their paths did not cross again for a number of years.
3. Note that when they left, they did so freely, and not as refugees.
Furthermore, they were welcomed at their respective destinations
without the wary hostility that greeted Jewish refugees, sadly.
4. Mr. Drucker, by constitution and inclination, were he greeted as Mr.
McCoy describes would have kicked their collective asses around the
block, and then across Central Park for good measure, not acted
defensively.

Of course the reason that my father & Mr. Drucker would not have
described each other as "Friends" is that their politics diverged
significantly immediately after WW-II, with Mr. Drucker veering pretty
far to the right.

Hi RATs!

I am going to use my trioded SE 6550C to drive the 845.

RC coupled. Grid R of 33K, since everybody says so

On my PP 6550c, also trioded, I put a SS diode between the Plate and
the Screen resistor. Sounds great

What effect, if any, does this have on the max operating watts?

This is the best thread in a long time

Thanks to all, especially Butter Gut.

There was a guy at One Electron??? who uses a diode in the screen
circuit.
Presumably it allows current flow only one way into the screen from
where
the anode connects to the load.
I don't quite understand that a screen could ever experience a current
flow
*out* of the tube but if there was such a flow and if it was interupted
by
a diode then there would be no signal voltage on the screen, so no
electron flow control by the screen which while connected
acts as the anode to convey the effect of the anode signal on the
electron flow.
In trioded multigrid tubes in a class AB PP circuit if the screen was
"switched off"
with a diode presumably when the anode voltage went high during current
cut off
then the other "on" tube has to do all the work to produce the same
power,
but then the rising voltage in the cut off tube couldn't absoeb any
power either.
I have never tried the diode in series with screen trick and done the
analysis,
but I once used 50V and 100V zener diodes which merely
effctively reduced Eg2, and reduced the possible anode swing and I
decided
there were no benefits to be had.

Using 6550 in triode to drive an 845 is fine but you only get slightly
more gain than a 300B.
Maybe if you are not wanting full power its OK, say in the case of horn
speakers
where the aim is fidelity at low power rather than any ability to be
able
to drive at full power; who the hell uses 20 watts for horn speakers?.
So it may not matter to not be able to drive an amp in a horn based
speaker system
to full levels.
