Hey guys and gals,
So I am tearing apart my AV-710 to upgrade the power caps and put in a new output stage. I noticed in reading art of electronics that among hte filters it mention is the bessel filter, and that it exhibits nearly constant delay across the passband, or almost no phase distortion. I was wondering why this design is never implemented in any DIY projects around here. Other than the fact that it requires an op-amp, it seems like an absolutely ideal solution to the phase distortion problems associated with the traditional RC filter I see used here.
Does anybody know of any problems associated with Bessel filters to explain why they are not more common?
