nice blunt article on component matching - 04/19/10 02:54 PM
I stumbled across this ten year old plus article, and thought I'd give it another glimpse of light. I though the section entitled "Component Compatibility is a Loaded Issue" was a nice indirect nodd towards Sir Ian's goals in speaker design.
In particular, I liked this phrase:
When you are told, “this is a rather analytical speaker,
so you need a really fine and mellow tube
amplifier on it” think instead that what
you really need is some other loudspeaker.
