Amplifier design / Bob Carver's thoughts


Here's an interesting article i ran across. For those that are interested in how devices work and the decisions that engineers make when designing a product, try taking a look at this article. It is an older interview with Bob Carver and gives background on the how's / why's of the Sunfire designs and why he chose the design attributes that he did. Obviously, the specific decisions made when designing any product are a matter of subjective preferences and some may not agree with Carver's personal designs / take on things. Having said that, the info provided here may help some of you that are less technically inclined understand how an amp works and what the various trade-offs are. Good reading, even if you don't like "Sideshow Bob". Sean

Being a proud Carver Lightstar Reference owner, I appreciate
you digging up this article. I'm embarrassed to admit that I don't have a clue as to what all that technical stuff means. There is far more power than my e-stats can handle. All I know is that my music sounds great.
