New audiophoolery

Wow, the guy then goes on to say that there are no space-charge effects in tubes. Wow, I know many people who got a Ph.D. and a career out of space charge effects in vacuum systems!

In the late 90's, space charge was "sold" by scamsters as a proof of the superiority of vacuum-tube audio systems...

What a crock of s*it. On the other hand this is interesting

Half or less.

Lossy audio data compression is mostly based on spectral, not temporal masking.

Everyone who buys one and adds it to their gold-plated audio system is pleased with its performance.

Why would they complain? They can prove how much they spent on it. Isn't that the point?

It was a well-kept secret that each electron leaves a tunnel behind it in the die. Of course, a hole flowing the other way will fill the tunnel up again.

Well kept secret ? ! God Almighty. These clowns know no shame whatever in the pursuit of fleecing the public.

What puzzles me is why the FTC ( or whoever ) doesn't 'do something' about them. Has no-one complained ?

That's how lossy audio data compression works.

from the spexs "Black anodised and painted non magnetic high-grade aluminium"

I wonder if "magnetic high-grade aluminium" is a factory option? It would certainly improve the perfomance near the poles

I suppose it's based on two tunnel diodes back-to-back. Of course, the name 'tunnel diode' gave away the secret, which is why you can't get them any more.

The oldest transistors still in service are now beginning to fail catastrophically; the die disintegrates due to the weakening caused by the tunnels created by the electrons. Before failure, the electrons can travel at increased speed through the damaged die. In audio amplifiers, this results in improved frequency response, the bass speeds up and the stereo image depth increases. Reports of improved phase declamation are as yet unconfirmed, except for power devices in black-painted metal TO-3 enclosures.

New high-reliability transistors will have an extra electrode for injecting holes periodically (every 10 ns to 1 fortnight) to combat the tunnelling. A supply of holes can be obtained from wholesalers, of course.

John, you clearly need to invest in my metal oxide tunnel transistor. The tunnel is many electrons in diameter. I can sell you these devices, of which I have both sizes for preamplifer use and power output use. I hihgly recommend using the larger devices as the tunnel is much bigger and can accomodate more electrons, which results in a much purer sound.

These devices are specially manufacutured in my workshop (the shed out the back) so you cannot by them elsewhere. If you would like some, please email me. No other manufacturer in the world has these. The MOTT is clearly the best transtistor in the world today for audio use.

No; the black pigment MUST be directly in contact with the metal, to align the magnetoelectric domains anisotropically.

What color spray paint does one use on the TO-3 case in order to convert a transistor into one of these new types? :) :) :)

Of course. It came from his (Oliver Smoot's) frat initiation. They used his body, end-over-end, to measure the Harvard bridge. There's a commemorative plaque on the MIT end of the bridge, placed there at our

You've heard of chrome yellow?, Well, you need unobtanium yellow instead.

Do those black plastic covers for TO3s help with increasing the bass speed?

That's an excellent idea. The holes could be supplied in clip-in modules (like flash cards). That way the end users could replace them.

Hmm.. a blue LED would light informing the user the hole supply was exhausted and they would either need to buy a new module or put up with reduced frequency response and slower bass.

I see a new business opportunity. :-)

Bah, humbug. Good old uranium based yellows and oranges work just fine. Ground up Fiestaware Red will do in a pinch.

Not at all; the alpha particles make much bigger tunnels and rapidly degrade the contramodulation distraction.
