I literally have to have my ear within 1 of the tweeter to hear the most mild hiss and that is at 0db on the avm.
Exposure amp noise floor.
Since it seems like the volume control comes before the tube gain stage you re effectively throwing away gobs of gain without reducing the noise floor generated by it i m assuming you re keeping the volume control relatively low for listening.
The stabilization of the noise level at higher frequencies indicates that the amplifier s white noise floor has been reached and a pixel read out rate greater than the 1 f corner frequency results in white noise limited operation.
Images such as russ kunkel s signature tom tom fill during carole king s home again from tapestry stood out as they suggested genuine weight and dimensionality rather than appearing as flat cardboard cutouts.
In order to reduce the levels of noise and thereby improve the sensitivity of the radio receiver the main element of the receiver that requires its performance to be optimised is the rf amplifier.
Plus the exposure s very low noise floor led to an appreciation of the ambient riches that reside between musical passages.
You re going to hear some noise floor with a linestage of such high gain unless your amp speakers are very insensitive and thus would need all of that gain.
Dynamic range is therefore the signal to noise ratio snr for the case where the signal is the loudest possible for the system.
The use of a low noise amplifier at the front end of the receiver will ensure that its performance will be maximised.
Audio engineers use dynamic range to describe the ratio of the amplitude of the loudest possible undistorted signal to the noise floor say of a microphone or loudspeaker.
Plus its low noise floor reveals the ambient riches that live between musical passages.
I am extremely pleased with my anthem avm amp combo a class d d sonic with essentially zero noise floor.
The amplifier s power rating wattage can impact the noise floor level.
If you have a 100 watt tube amp it s probably going to make more noise than a 15 watt tube amp.
Also if your amp is designed for high gain settings it will most definitely make more noise than an amp designed to run cleaner.
The 3010s2d offers a compelling musical foundation.
With an overall character that conveys warmer darker shadings reminiscent of a burnished walnut grain it doesn t hype treble frequencies etch transients or.
