Our New Amplifier Has It All...

"Our new amplifier has it all," Zmuidzinas says. "You get to have your cake and eat it too."

Interesting....(pinky on edge of mouth)

Now we get to watch old reruns of galaxy QS1309's version of "Married With Children" with Al Bundy. Sweet...how long before Mouser carries them there niobium titanium nitride coils?

I wonder if it will come in a vacuum filled glass container?
Filaments will need to work in reverse - maybe peltier effect.
Could be a winner...

Uhh.. Does anyone have a layout? That thing is confusing. Looks like a voice coil, claims it's an amp.

What's next? A 1/4 inch plug on a lamp wire?

:shock:

Keith Schwab, a professor of applied physics at Caltech, is planning to use the amplifier to measure the behavior of tiny mechanical devices that operate at the boundary between classical physics and the strange world of quantum mechanics.
Are they referring to sweep picked arpegios and tasty legato runs, while modulating to mixolydian mode?

Yeah, but does it have crystal lettuce?

How long before a company starts marketing guitar strings made of titanium nitride (TiN) and niobium titanium nitride (NbTiN)? Cryogenically frozen of course. :wink:

There are now cobalt plated nickel strings, one step closer to alnico strings.

If you use an aluminum bridge with those strings, you're already there!

I'm just saying ............... :wink:

Spectrographic pickups. The strings are made of helium at Jupiter's core. A prism guides pure sunlight into pure fiber, and out through the pickup which hits a detector where the absorption lines are translated by interferometry, and bends are detected as redshift.

Gibson bought the company that owned the technology, then they closed the doors.

It's a conspiracy.

That whole yuck-up about wood from Madagascar was just Gibson and the government trying to look at odds.

Pure fiber, eh?

So not only will those strings sound good, they'll keep you regular? :wink:
