Re: True damping factor...

I believe, and i know john will correct me, if i'm out in left field, that a negative DF can be obtained by increasing the ratio of negitive global feed back to a point that makes the output impedence negative. But from what i have read by those who have tried that approach the system sounds terrible. I also believe the negative output impedence designs were an attempt to get a ss amp to sound more like tube amps. Isn't it kinda funny,the amps with the lowest DF (tube amps) that people will swear by how much better they sound than ss amps.
