I have a friend building what he calls "an Aikido-influenced design" dedicated headphone amp - Class A triode OTL no feedback.
I'm not a DIYer and have no technical background. Can anyone explain what this means - its implications in terms of operation, sound potential, and so on?
I believe he intends on using 12AX7 and 6S4A tubes.
I've searched here and on the web on "Aikido" and have found John Broskie's website, but, uh, don't understand much of what it says, at least until he whips out his Sennheisers and starts talking about sound.
