Trick question?

geoffkait,

Sounds like I best give you a technical answer

While most single-channel analog signal transmissions use direct current (dc) variations in current or voltage to represent a data value, frequency variations of an alternating current (ac) also can be used to communicate information. In the early 19th century, Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier, a French mathematician and physicist, discovered that ac signals could be defined in terms of sine waves. A sine wave is described by three quantities: amplitude, period, and frequency. The amplitude is the peak value of the wave in either the positive or negative direction, the period is the time it takes to complete one cycle of the wave, and the frequency is the number of complete cycles per unit of time (the reciprocal of the period).


Now a question for you.

Is the output of a tube amplifier's output transformer AC or DC?

geoffkait,

I would appreciate your help on my original posted message. I would think you of all people would be interested in the subject.
