Yes, Tube(valve) amps have serious problems with this because nearly all tubes are, or can become, microphonic. Microphonic is the term of art to describe when physicially shaking the tube causes it to act as a microphone. Very bad in general for audio quality.
Turntables, remember them? have always had problems with acoustic coupling, either from heavy feet clomping as they dance, or speakers causing the turntable to vibrate in sync. tyler_durden;216931 Wrote: > > Solid state amps generally don't suffer from this problem, however, > there are many golden ears who claim to hear such problems even with > solid state amps and need to spend vast sums on equipment racks to > ameliorate the problem. > There is a slightly more plausible case that CD players could be subject to vibrations, moving parts and all that. I think, IMHO, etc. that this is unlikely and approaches snake oil. Anyone claiming that interconnects or speaker cables are susceptible to this are selling vastly overpriced snake oil. > > ameliorate the problem. > Eschew obfuscation -- pfarrell Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pfarrell's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=200 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=37021 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
