RE: Saturation Point

125.238.203.146

I will go back to my original post that, if C-Core was so good in SET designed amplifiers, then why don't we see more of it being used? I also don't believe the extra cost to build a C-Core (or Toroidal SET OPT) is the primary reason for their lack of popularity. Do a search online (AA, DiyHiFI, etc.) and you'll find the merits of why EI is still commonly used (even in the most high-end exotic amps). Perhaps we need an explanation of the 'thin' sound from?
