John, it is interesting that you qualified application by the base metal used in the transformer. Here at GSC, many use "exotic" and/or "amorphous" cores, or perhaps high nickel content (or Si) for chokes. As it happens my own phono stage uses exotic transformers. How would this - in and of itself - factor in with respect to SMPS use?

You have not said directly, but from your circuit I have supposed you have worked extensively with "serious" S/N ratios with - say - LNAs, such as satellite and related relay equipment eg., "telecommunications"? Is this pretty much "all digital" today? Would the modern iteration of this considered to be "full range", as hoped for by audiophiles? I remain hopeful, but I have not yet heard good-sounding streamed audio.


Best regards,
Paul S
