Re: TDA1541A sin(x)/x, I/V ... do I get this right

Elso,

We (some people in our club) have spend much time on that. I worked my way across from a simple 3rd order filter with -6db @ 20KHz (including sin(X)/(X) effects) all the way to one that is flat. While pleasant on some recordings, the substantial HF rolloff was pleasing, on "known good" recordings the result was a darkening of tonality, with reduced spaciousness and a more opaque sound.

The final Filter uses the same 3rd order topology as the original but due to an adjusted Q allows the HF response to be mostly compensated for the sin(X)/(X) rolloff, allowing substantially flat response to appx. 16Khz and modest rolloff at 20KHz.

Later T
