[QUOTE="honkyg, post: 8560208, member: 606879"] got it. i just read his write up and replies on diyma in the r.i.p.s. thread which explains in pretty good detail, not so much about the correlation of imp. rise, but how the rips system behaves,... im inclined to think that may have been a great marketing campaign when the slash/v1 series came out as even some of the most knowledgeable audiophiles were possibly mislead. good info in there, but now that i read it, it seems it was a rather well thought out misnomer for some to assume as we did, and im sure they sold the hell out of them based on that alone. kinda surprised to learn the slash series was thought up by the same man who designed the ppi art series and dm series using the same, yet revamped, power supply modulation tech the dm series did. one thing thats really sticking with me though, is that typical voltage source amplifier power supplies where rail voltage is fixed are designed for an optimum load, and higher load impedances just result in it producing less power, not the inverse, whereas the rips system adjusts rail voltage in 4 steps depending on the initial non-reactive load it detects upon powering up. now if only we could have an amplifier that could actually produce constant power at all frequencies with a reactive load,... id prob sell a testicle to own it.
