Chris,You only theorize.
Have you ever actually gone to a show, etc. and heard a Dennis Fraker 2A3 DC amplifier? Yes or No ?
Any idea why it got " Best Sound at Show " 2005 RMAF by Mr. S. Harrell, writing for Six Moons ??

See Jeff's link, first picture on the right.
Top right photo is the rear view of one of Dennis' amps. Notice the Cardas binding posts, and what appears to be an AVVT meshplate 2A3.

I'm sure it was a damn good performing amp with those Slagle transformers.
Though I have experienced only 4 manufacturers in my DIY career, nothing has come close to reproducing the music so beautifully until I purchased a pair from Dave. Well worth the extra $$ and I cant say enough about them until you hear a pair yourself. And did I mention they test really well, I'll have to post a square wave of my amp one of these days. It almost looks like a good transistor amp, you almost wouldn't know a transformer was in the signal path.....

For the record, Dennis does not use my transformers. From the looks of it I suspect those are MQ from mike (acrosound)

Hi Dave.
Yes. The guys in the brass covers are mine (MagneQuest).

"Chris, You only theorize."
So, if I understand correctly, you do believe that your power supply gives your amplifiers a special quality that makes them sound better. But you don't like any suggestion that this might be associated with any distinguishing features of the power supply that could be calculated, simulated or measured?
So you therefore dismiss any evidence based on theory or measurement that might support your claim that your power supply gives the sound a special quality, because you would prefer to believe that the special characteristics of your power supply must necessarily be unmeasurable and uncalculable by any methods known to science?
Chris
I don't recall reading somewhere that you said the supply necessarily sounds bad. Thanks for your diligence.
