Abstract: An acoustic quench detection method utilizing MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical System) acoustic sensors is proposed. To investigate this method, a commercially available MEMS piezoelectric ...

You may have seen me write elsewhere that the Fender Princeton is, in my opinion, the best tube amp overall. It’s just the right size, it’s got the right amount of power to get incredible tube ...

When most people think of tube circuits, the first thing that comes to mind is often the use of high-voltage power supplies. It wasn’t a given for tube circuits, though, as a range of low-voltage ...

Abstract: A MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical System) acoustic sensor-array quench detection method has been proposed for quick, unobtrusive, and precisely localized detection of quench events in ...

It was 20 years in the making, but with the EVO100, Herman van den Dungen and Jan de Groot have created a tube phono preamplifier that can bear the PrimaLuna name with pride. And I think it will give ...

While not inexpensive, the Chord Huei phono preamp delivers so much performance from your favorite cartridge that you may swear off digital. Having spent the better part of my Saturday listening to ...
