Airbrake

Post by ampdoc1 »

I'm glad to see that we have confirmed the early TW circuitry. However, I just recently started living in an apartment for the first time in 30 years, and miss my nightly sessions with an amp. I love the Komet clips using the Airbrake, so I wonder if anyone has diagrams of this to share.

Thinking about it the Airbrake seems to be a purely resistive network like a L-Pad or Bridged T . Since the resistors are big wirewound types maybe there is some inductance in it too. Someone once said that maybe Ken chose the 25w resistor in the Express PS because of the inductance in exhibits. Inductance would make the Airbrake behave more speakerlike I asume...
