Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

RE: The Audible Illusions Reality

Jim McShane,

I think we are related in the sense that written descriptions of sound, it's relationship with hardware, and the science behind it does require a careful word choice- and to make a complete and supported description- a lot of words. Your post concerning tube ruggedness was excellent and to me, was clear, accurate, and exactly the right length.

Recommending a particular tube, requires scientific, technological, quantitative, qualitative,and aesthetic language! And, especially the aesthetic language may be confused and seem vague. Think of how many ways a tube might be called "cool".

Personally, I had always thought I would write austere poetry and novels in the magical realism style, but instead I am writing Patent applications- much more difficult to do well,..

Follows is a wordless description of the arcing of a GE 6550A called "Design for a Theatre".

Cheers,

Bambi B
