     Tube sound with nanotechnology  electronics and no tubes.  Alberta might be on to something big here....
         Must look into this.     :D :D

The test guys and target public was musicians, what may explain the juvenile enthusiasm.

There is zero useful information in there. Circuits that operate at the "molecular level" is nonsense; maybe they meant something else and got caught up in marketing drivel, but still useless. Saying "first product of its kind" also garners an eye-roll from me.

Transistors and SS diodes works at molecular level.

No, they work at a subatomic level....

Molecules are a huge set of atoms, sub atmonic particles form an atom, this level is a uncharted land, some particles oscillate between matter and energy.

So, do I have the "energy" to continue following this to see if it "matters"?

Or do I spend my time listening to music through those troublesome, old-fashioned tubes?  :wink:

Damn those particles!  I blame the Large Hadron Collider for this.  :nono: :finger: :cuss:

Me too, this experiment is a ridiculous amount of money for nothing.

Google is your friend when more details are desired.

It appears they have a two terminal device rather than the three terminals of a tube/FET/BJT. The comparisons to 1N4148 diodes in the electric guitar pedal circuit leads me to an initial opinion these are of limited use in HiFi.
