Motorola used one on their first cell phone.

Chauser eleptical low pass with nulls at 4.5k and 9k iirc.

Now I am wondering if I could create a "passive line level" with this, avoiding inductors.

Here is a link to a design article:

Active inductor substitutes

Here is a circuit I like.
Not excessive voltage drop, no absolute expectations on voltage or current.

Shunt Regulator Wiki

Posted 26th April 2010 at 12:50 AM by DougL
Updated 28th April 2010 at 06:43 PM by DougL

Here is my brothers response to the first version of the Shunt Regulator wiki. I actually wrote it for him so he could get a clue of what I was babbling about.

Дуг,

Это бумажное средство приблизительно столько же, сколько эта электронная почта будет означать для Вас. Я думаю, что это хорошо написано. Вы будете нуждаться в этой связи, чтобы выяснить то, что пятку я только что написал Вам, поскольку это находится на русском языке.

Кит

Here is a translation:
Arcs, This paper means approximately so many, this how much electronic mail will indicate for you. I think that this is well written. You will require in this connection in order to explain that the fact that I recently wrote heel to you, since this is found on the Russian language.

For thoes of you that are curious, the article is here:

Research for My first Horn Speaker.

Posted 19th April 2010 at 08:57 PM by DougL
Updated 28th April 2010 at 06:44 PM by DougL

This is my foray into the dark side.
The only horn speakers I have ever heard was a K horn being driven with a Phase Linear 700.
Could not stay in the room.
Now I am curious if it can be better.

I have a 3 DCX2496 and 6 channels of amplification, so I will start with an active system.

My goal is to get the drivers close to 100db or higher efficiency.
I want to be able to experiment with low power amps.
I am also frugal, so I want to use low cost waveguide components.

Compression tweeter
Direct radiation mid
Woofer/Woofers.

JBL 2123 is my starting point Second hand only.

B&C 6MD38 99db $89
B&C 8PE21 98 db $100
B&C 10MD26 100 db $160
B&C 10HPL64 98 db $130

Here is an example speaker.

Power supplies for B1

Posted 9th February 2010 at 07:51 PM by DougL
Updated 28th April 2010 at 06:44 PM by DougL

My brother gave me a Pass B1 board.
Now that he has his working I thought I would look at mine.

I am going to use this space to record all of the links and tricks. Some of the links will be very basic.

I found a great comment in post http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/tubes...3a-driver.html post #10.

Very few details were given, but it caught my imagination.

Tube Voltage Regulator, Is it worth the effort

Posted 27th October 2009 at 10:31 PM by DougL
Updated 13th January 2010 at 08:53 PM by DougL

This thread has some good, solid information and very little bravado.

http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/tubes...th-effort.html

Special Mention to:
janneman
Tubelab
kevinkr
Allen Wright
Bas Horneman
SY

For their interesting contributions.

IMHO, There are several ways to make an adequate Power supply. And several ways to totally botch the job.

In the 1980's, I was totally against using solid state in a tube preamp. However, this was more about not using low voltage devices in high voltage circuits than anything else.
Now that high voltage transistors are available this is not a major consideration.
My first tube amp is going to be a platform to play with some of the discussions.
I want to try unregulated and regulated power supplies. I will probably start out with unregulated choke input supplies.

It...

Beast with a Thousand JFETs

I guess it's time to unveil the Beast with a Thousand JFETs.

Here's the first teaser, a circuit panel to hold 588 JFETs and
associated resistors.
What can I say. Its a pleasure to see a master at work.
