I read in sci.electronics.design that martin griffith

design...', on Mon, 13 Dec 2004:
There is a huge amount of stuff on this, about 80% being in the
audiophool class. I don't recall any recent AES treatment of the
subject.
My own view is that since transistors have pentode-like output
characteristics, there is little point in comparing them with triodes.
And if you compared them with pentodes, VERY carefully adjusting the
measurable parameters to be equal, there wouldn't be an appreciable
difference in the subjective effects of overload.
No problem at all with a carbon microphone. You don't even need the bass
drum - a loud shout would do it.

Sorry Win
I gave up my AES membership years ago, Icouldnt keep up with the maths
Maybe Woodgate would have something more up to date.

Urban myth...About triggering an old type photgraphic flash bulb from a
mic in a bass dr
