Lots of interesting links. Especially the Frequency response one. Will listen to it later. Right now listening to music.

Thanks @stevieboy - took me a long time to understand most of it. However this is pretty much the definitive guide to "understanding tube amp". Here's the second part. Not beginner savvy but a couple of watches with a lot of googling can really help.

Most welcome! I always found tubes a fascinating topic. Forgot more than I remember now hehe

Regards

I wish I was doing that - I started with the "Set List - by Frames" lovely album and then somewhere went into Psychoacoustics. LORD!

I shared this on another thread here, but since the topic of “Spatial audio” seems to be in fashion I thought this well written PHD thesis might be of interest. (Found it on ASR) Except for some very technical bits it’s a surprisingly easy read:

Great thread this BTW

I was also a clueless newbie when i joined this wonderful forum a few months back ...Of all the online resources, i found this to be the most simple and comprehensive enough for anybody to understand, good resource just to start off with... and i think it also mentions some of the above mentioned bibles as well

Learn the Language of Good Sound

Better understand the difference a hi-fi system can make

@somjk Thank you for sharing this terrific article. I found beautifully articulated explanations of the complex interactions between electric signals, electro-mechanical events and psychoacoustic perceptions in home audio reproduction and the frequently encountered problems in simple language (not an easy feat in areas full of jargon and hyperbole)
This should be essential reading recommended for everyone in this hobby.
