Aleph4 damping factor

alanyeoh · 17th August 2004, 08:06 AM

Hello,

Any idea how the damping factor of the Pass Labs' Aleph 4 is calculated?

Many thanks.

Measure the output at 8 ohms, then take the load off,
and calculate the output impedance from the difference
between the two values. Ordinarily we do this at 1Khz,
and the DF is about 30 or so.
