In all the LSES talk it seems one is attempting to tune the power supply to "follow music". And since an SE amp has a fairly constant current draw, what exactly are we following? Ahh, but that's why it seems to work on SE and not on PP.

Now how do we do that when music can be anywhere from a piano solo, full symphony, to heavy metal.

Furthermore this idea that audio is "fast" is silly. Your home WiFi is in the ghz range. That's "fast" by electrical engineering standards.

I and others have explained why this power supply makes a "fast" sounding amplifier. It's adding the function of a dynamic range expander to the amplifier. It may sound exciting but it's no longer a true amplifier, it's more of a signal processor.

If you like that, fine. I use dynamic range expanders my self for older material however they are an outboard unit that can be switched out.
