Re: bel canto slew rate

The only place on the website that I see the figure of 800v/uS is on the preamp page where it refers to the speed of the buffer. I saw no such reference to the power amps.

Buffers are very quick as a rule; it is hard to design a slow one. And if he is using one of the off-the-shelf high-quality op amp buffers that are available there are models that offer 1000v/uS. But neither speed is required for audio and really has nothing to do with the good sound his equipment has. Or I should say it is only a factor and not the most important one.
