Fast, soft recovery diodes

Tweakers' Asylum

Tweaks for systems, rooms and Do It Yourself (DIY) help. FAQ.

What is it that makes these diodes sound better?

Is it the REVERSE RECOVERY TIME, or is it the RECOVERY CHARACTERISTIC (soft or hard)?

I have read in some websites that a slower diode may actually sound much better than a really fast one. Is this true?

Thanks for any input.
