Re: Recent issues of AudioXpress....

The December 2005 issue featured space shuttle astronaut/engineering professor/audio designer (and friend) Norm Thagard's setup of (8) Cit II amps driven by his own design "phase splitter". That gives him 480 watts/channel RMS, and about 1000 watts/channel peak power.

Norm tells me it's simply amazing. He told me the first reaction people have to hearing it is to laugh! The sound is so remarkable that at first people are simply unable to process it it seems. I'll be visiting him one of these days so I can hear it for myself, what a trip!!
