این آقا هم با لامپ کار کرده و هم با ترانزیستور و هم به Power Supply باتری توجه داشته و تو فستیوالهای ترایود اروپا هم سخنرانی میکرده و روی نوع دیستورشن ها هم مطالعاتی داشته.

بحث منبع تغذیه برای ترانزیستور خیلی مهم هست و برخی از کمپانی ها کلا رفتند به سمت باتری چون گرفتن پاسخ خوب با قیمت های پایین کمی با این ترانس ها و خازن ها مشکل هست.

چند روز دیگه در مورد دو برند http://www.mother-of-tone.com/ و http://www.redesignsaudio.com/ خواهم نوشت.

خوش بگذره
