Where we discuss the magical combination of single ended triode amplifiers and full range driver speakers. With a short signal path leading to a crossover-less design, the magic of this combination of amp and speaker is legendary.
Darren and Duncan break down their opinions on single ended triode amplifiers and their use with speakers with no crossover -- single driver full range speakers. Duncan talks about his DIY corner horns and his latest amplifier purchase - a Decware Mini Torii SEP (pentode) 3.9 Watt tube amplifier and how good it sounds in his new bedroom audio system.
Engineer Darren explains why so much of this is good for an audiophile experience, and talks about distortion profiles, the difference between SET and push pull designs, how tape is similar in some ways to a good push pull, and why people like what they hear when they're hearing high distortion, high output impedance single ended amplifiers.
