As a 91% skeptic, I agree with Themis that almost ALL highly regarded
manufactures claim some kind of in-factory burning process, not to say
the critics in the industry, which in most reviews mention the B
word.
Companies that produce in my opinion some of the best equipment
available, such as
What do you think about the amplifiers in T class?
Someone has tested them?
I'm reading that they are good and inexpensive equipment!!

I would think that the socalled factory burn-in process is done mainly
to ensure that the products actually works when they reach the
customer...? Semiconductors that are bad usually breaks within a few
hours, so a day or two of burn-in at the factory is a good thing for
quality assurance.

I'm as skeptical as the next person about burn-in in general. However
I do think that there are some exceptions that merit pointing out. One
such being Black Gate capacitors that I've used many times in DIY valve
amps as cathode bypass caps. These particular caps do appear to change

Andy,
I agree. I did notice the noise floor(I think I may have mentioned
this earlier) of the TP being marginally better than my SB3. Again it
was very minimal. This along with maybe a bit of better instrument
seperation, was about rhe only differences I could hear. In reality,
its pretty

I'm about to do an experiment by using 8 1.2V rechargeable AA batts to
power the Duet. I want to see if it can bring the digital section
close to the Transporter level...

Both low powered amps on a chip.
Both needing high efficiency speakers.
I wonder if the openness and clarity with both is in some large measure
to do with the use of horn or transmission line loudspeaker cabinets

That would be for the same reason they don't sell the product with a
better DAC, or a better analogue output stage, or a better case, or ...

There is really nothing to upgrade. Don't waste your money, save it. If
the sound of the Duet is not high fidelity enough for you now, save your

I have used TrueRTA from trueaudio.com which is a spectrum analyser

can be set to normalise out any uneven response in PC soundcard to give

I confirm what Richard said, it works. Even the sweep works except that
for any reason the sweep level varies from one record to another. I

Okay, now I'm confused. This is streaming digital FM, not broadcast.
Are you saying they compress everything even if bandwidth
