Solid State vs. Tubes - What if Transistors came first?

Limited understanding is still much better than no understanding. Glubson understands what I mean. No offense, glubby.

"...a dyed in the wool naysayer slash pseudo skeptic."

It is not nice that wool-clad naysayers slash pseudo skeptics. This is just a non-sense hobby. No need for violence of that magnitude.

I was fairly certain you’d get the wool reference since you’ve obviously been following the wrong, you know...

Actually PT Barnum never said that. However he did say people would generally be much better off if they believed in TOO MUCH rather than TOO LITTLE.

geoffkait,

"...since you’ve obviously been following the wrong, you know..."

I have to agree with this. I have been following your posts about technology and whatever else and they are, you know....mostly wrong.

>>>>You forgot to add, “As I understand it.” 

If I want any more sheet out of you I’ll squeeze your head. 

The trouble is “we” wouldn’t recognize it if it was taking a leak on our leg. I use the word we editorially. - your humble scribe

I take it you can go a little whacko on those trans oceanic flights.

Now auditioning for 12 Angry Knuckleheads.

I'd make sure your curtains are pulled tight at night. God only knows what Kaity is capable of. You don't want him busting out his teleportation tweak on you and showing you his magic pebbles.

>>>More wishful thinking, obviously. Time for a nice long cold shower, eh, Costco?

No offense, but I can certainly understand why you’d spend so much time in the bathroom. By the way, I really like your avatar. Is that supposed to be a toilet flushing?

What do you expect from a glorified bus driver? 👨🏻‍✈️

Dave, Thanks for posting one of the more bizarre, snarky and uninformed (notice I didn’t use the word ignorant) articles I have observed lo all these years. Matt obviously has some axe to grind. Who know’s why? Where do all these lonesome people come from? What gets overlooked sometimes, The Intelligent Chip was the most talked about audio tweak in audio history the year it appeared at CES in 2005.

Whoa! What? Hey, you must think I’m double jointed.

Dave, I assume you’re headed back to the bathroom to read some more of my articles. Ta ta

Uh, oh! Country pops up n/a for Mr. Potty Mouth. I’m guessing down under. Am I close?

Keep trying, Dave_b. Have you tried eating a box of prunes? 

You could say hybrid amps are better in some respects than either pure tube or pure solid state amps in some cases.

I ought to clunk your heads together. I’ve been rated No. 1 here for like forever. Hel-loo,

Im sure there’s more but I’m done going to the bathroom now!!

>>>>Are you stupid or something? How could I have been infringing on HIS intellectual property? It was a photo of MY clock? Hel-looo! Anybody in there? Knock! Knock! 😛
Please note in the discussion linked to the best question was asked by Wellfed.

I’ve got my fingers crossed, pumpkin. But I’m not waiting by the phone.

Nope. Upper U.S.

>>>>>Funny. Upper yours, too.

I thought Class D was transistors. 😳

Glubson, your statement is definitely true, and carefully worded, but only if the person in question is how do you say it, oh, yeah, deaf.

That’s...very...good... Dave

And that’s quite a moustashe! Apparently you sympathize with dead people.

Your liver has my sympathy. 

Do you guys have the same joke writer? I trust you’re not paying him very much.

A blind dog finds a bone every once in a while. 

Apparently Deforest had even less luck with the ladies, married four times, than he did with high end audio. That’s a shame. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲

I bet you know something about vessels bulging out on your forehead, too.

I dunno, he had illegitimates,too, like my schoolmates mother.

>>>>I get it. She’s your mother, too.

You spell like you hear 💩🧠

What do you mean “no fun?” That was fun! 

I hate to judge before all the facts are in but it appears maritime must have wandered off to the mind garden one too many times. 🌷🌺🍄🌷🌹

Geoffscat, you are a hoot. But, like a 💩 in a punch bowl, an acquired taste. 🐍💩

>>>>I’ll take your word for it. Do you gargle with mouthwash afterward?

Yes, as long as we’re content. That’s what matters.
