Review:The Audiophile's Project Sourcebook

Amplifier projects but not good design: a cookbook May 24, 2004

This is a smaller and more project-oriented version of this author's
earlier book on building solid-state audio amplifiers. The amplifiers
in this book are "plain vanilla" Class B direct-coupled transistor
amplifiers, which will provide reasonable performance for utility or
musical instrument use, but due to the lack of precision-matching of
semiconductors and the "more-is-better" approach to using NFB, these
are not going to compete in sound with Krell or Threshold. It's
delusional to think otherwise.

Is this the putz who insists you:

1. don't need to match output, driver, or any other transistors?

2.want either pure class A or pure class B but nothing in between?
(He goes off on gM doubling without any power/distortion curves to
support his theory or any consideration that the sonic purity of the
lowest audible output, rather than full power, (First Watt Theory)
may be more critical)

(Which is no defense of single ended "hi-fi" amps.We need fidelity at
the lowest and the highest levels, **** Bender.)
