18 dB is a heck of a lot of energy to expend on feedback, but op amps do use tons of it. Any of those guys in there?
More troubling is the thought that the energy could be lost to some sort of "proprietary curve", like a digital "RIAA" or something, in pretend time. But that's what all the "corrections" are, more or less, right?
Nobody leaves well enough alone, that's for sure! And the smarter the engineer, it seems, the more convoluted his "solutions".
Looking in from way outside, the "ones and zeros" digital seems to have gotten ever more complicated and messed up; moreso, even, than the "infinite" analog, at least in terms of implementation.
Most of the digital "engineers" seem to believe very strongly that any amout of processing is OK or even "beneficial" if it's "done right".
Meanwhile, there seems to be very little agreement on even the most basic isues with respect to how (or when) to do it.
Well, I waited several years for the iDAT to come up for the CDs; and I guess I can keep waitng to see what finally shakes out here, too.
