Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: Because...

Does having continuous diode conduction really sound better? Do we really know for certain? When I look backwards into the power supply I see an open electrical pathway for all the garbage that lives on the line voltage. Would it be possible that short charging bursts that limits an open pathway to line noise and garbage can sound better? I believe if the charge currents are well within the specs of the power transformer and chokes that the perceived negative attributes don’t apply. Why not charge quickly and get out of the way? A forward biased diode whether solid state or vacuum will pass AC noise.
