The so-called automatic switching feature is typically based on switchmode power supplies. The audio industry seems to be going relatively slow on adopting switchmode power supplies, probably because of the EMI sensitivity of their own equipment.

You ? I think George has bragged here that he spent 4 years at uni either drunk or high but always chasing girls. So, they gave him a degree in Business Administration to get him out of their hair. If you watch George's posting habits, he's generally got nothing to do most of the week so he drinks a lot and posts drunk a lot. He gets kinda busy some weekends. Things must be pretty slack right now, because hes mostly bragging about stuff he did a long time ago.

Denny when you want legal advice you go to a lawyer, when you want medical advice you go to a doctor when you want pro live sound advice your best bet is a pro live sound professional this is why we specialize and advace in niche feilds such as live sound Vs equipment design and I did acknowledge that all those poster have valuable informeation to offer it is just not pro live sound information and I would search that information out in the proper forums it's how we attempt to keep the focus here on pro live sound and not lighting or photography, or auto mechanics, circut design , religionor politics george |
