I have been a professional design engineer for 37 years, and have been a member of the IEEE for 40 years.
Soundmind, are you a member of the IEEE? If so, what journals do you read monthly? I subscribe to:
'Proceedings of the IEEE'
'Circuits and Systems'
'Solid State Circuits'
'Instrumentation and Measurement'
'Consumer Circuits'
'IEEE Spectrum'
I have been a member of the AES for an equal length of time, and read the Journal every month. I also read 'EDN','Electronics Design','NASA Tech Briefs', 'The Industrial Physicist', 'EE', 'Sensors', and a number of other smaller technical magazines.Who are you to say how an engineer should design?
It just so happens than audio design needs another feedback mechanism rather than one in a circuit or implied by a mathematical calculation. It needs: THE HUMAN EAR.
Without this feedback mechanism, it is you who is tinkering about blindly, wasting time, effort and money. Both Rolf and I have the education and experience to know this. This is the difference between a successful audio designer and a time waster.
