after hearing of the gaincard and some googling about i stumbled on that site too, some time ago. It made me decide to build one, paradoxally 😉

From the one side i heard these raving stories about how good it was and on the other side people talking about "those ppl using OPAMPS for hq audio. ha!"

I just figured i had to try it out myself. Tested & tried it and i've become pro-gainclone .

I don't know why it is so funny.

On the intended market for the LM chips, I believe not too long ago someone here got words from the engineer who was part of the national team that designed the chip did say that the chip was intended for low-end applications.

and we had dome quite a few simulations that indicated using small filter caps in the PS doesn't help sound.

I wouldn't go into the cable directionality anymore, 🙂.

I think there is a lot of hype around the chip. Is it a good one? absolutely. Is it a be-it-all amp? no.

I have three reasonably good amp, a parasound, a signature and a sony es. my various gainclones aren't close to any of them, at high volume.

I would venture to say that my citation 12 (Nelson's design) beat out the gainclone by a long shot.

There are a lot of good things about the gainclone, but tell it as is, please.

Come on Kuei...

The guy even calls "schottky diodes" to the MUR860s.🙄
I had some good laughs reading that.
Can you take seriously a guy like this?😀

The picture is rather funny I thought. I look better on it than my usual self. I am most amused that someone whould take me serious enough to dovote all this time and effort on something that he thinks will upset me while it really only makes me laugh....

I am quite interested in this exchange with Mr. Audio Gizmo:

>>Please don't take it as offence but I find it
>> incredible that you 'burn in' speaker cables.

What you find credible or not is your choice. I have convinced myself
a while ago in a rigerous double blind test that cable "burn in" is
real. I tokk two pairs of Interconnects (DIY), absolutely identical
and first tested them to ensure they where the same, the score was
random. I then "burned in" one cable with pink noise for two weeks
and left the other alone. After that I repeated the test and could
consitently identify the cables as different with a preference for
the one that had been "burned in".

what is the "rigerous double blind test ' that enabled Mr. AG to be convined of cable directionality?

Waht is Mr. AG talking about here?

personal attacks - no matter how tounge-in-cheek - always rub
me the wrong way. I think the above is pretty tasteless and
juvenile, and for those reasons alone anything of substance that
may be brought up in this screed carries no weight for his argument.

Kuei Yang Wang, i'm glad it isn't getting under your skin, and you
see it for what it's worth, but there's still no justification for
web pages like that.

[😱]

Might be funny sometimes (so I might ask “why my site is not linked there?”) but that site gives a bad example to the young.

Adults might understand behavior of the owner of the site (uses his own space and bandwidth to “publish” other’s audio projects and official datasheets (!) and to attack someone) as strange.

For me personally, that is nothing but ugly.

But it wouldn’t be bad if such sites were parental advisory signed.
