Hi RATs!

Listening to an interesting amp ... The Interelectronics "Coronation
100" from the mid-50's. It has two octal bases in two sockets, each
filled with 'secret circuits'. It does not appear any vacuum is needed
for this implementation. Whatever pieces are in there are covered by
some glop which fills the tube base to the top. If you take either
out, the amp does not play.

Perhaps this is an example of "Analog Rights Management"?

Happy Ears!

How much distortion does it make ?

Hi Graham,

Not as much as you think you make

Thank you for trying to make conversation, but, I don't even know
where my HP distortion analyzer is. I haven't used it in years. There
is more to life than you and your hangups. Thankfully

You have no interest in old tube anything, personally. You just sit
there and type hostile nonsense endlessly. Good for you. Bad for me.

Happy Ears!

I can assure you I have no 'hangups' about distortions whatever other than
to remove them when not required.

Everything in its place.

Really ?

You're quite mistaken actually. I just downloaded a huge amount of info
about Siemens/Telefunken (and also Altec and Pultec) tubed mic preamps
from the 50s/60s. Maybe I was imagining it ?

I have it in mind to possibly manufacture 'replicas' of same.

Hi Graham,

You seek a market niche. I just enjoy listening. Making money may seem
recreational to you, I found it sad. Listening is much more
interesting, to me.

Good luck on your venture.

Why do you think our objectives are exclusively different ?

I LOVE listening. I actually have to 'ration' myself because I'll spend
too much time listening to music given the chance !


Good luck on your venture.

Thanks for that Al. I wish you well too.

Graham
