Bob's JC1's? WOW! They are about as good as we can do with that design.
I really would like to try a zero global feedback amp at this point, but I doubt that I personally will ever make it. Parasound has been good to me, but I must design within their guidelines. This means reasonably low measured distortion and really high power.
Charles Hansen's super concern for power supply clean-up is also very interesting. I have not tried hard enough (so it would seem) to completely RFI proof my Parasound power amps. Of course, the CTC and Vendetta designs are pretty darn well RFI buffered, but it has been difficult to put that into high power designs. At this time, I am on another website, www.diyaudio.com trying to knock some sense into those 'designers' who laugh at Charles' efforts, because they don't use global feedback. He is apparently getting the last laugh.
