In all those conversations about SET vs SS there is one important
element that is allays escapes people attention. People like or do not like
this or that type of amplifiers and they are willing to advocate their love.
What however they always forgot that their love to a given amps or topology
exist only in context of given conditions and circumstances and among those
conditions the type of the speaker drivers the amps driving is one of the most
critical element.
For instance you can create as insane as you wish 3W SET and
you can use some kind of super capacitors in there, using the octopus sperm as dialectic
and making sure that the sperm was collected by a Buddhist monk in 4th
generation who was lefty, bling on right eyes, vegetarian but eats peperoni. Still, even that would not allow you super SET
to be effective if it drives a compression diver with a ceramic magnet. Ironically
the ultra-low output impedance and current drive is what doctor prescribed for ceramics.
With the rare-earth magnets the situation is even more confusing but it truly confusing
with estimable alnico. There are a few version
of alnico and they are slightly different but we never know what type alnico is
used for a driver. It is not to mention that this specific alnico driver can be
insolently charged or discharged to a given but unknown level….
So, loving of an Amplifier is like loving a bullet without
even thinking what gun the bullet will be filing away and to which target…
