Hearing digital noise with the Pleiades 2N3053


It is impressive, like a sea of noise.


It can be heard by cranking full up the Pleiades 2N3053 on the I Robot  track which comes in very quietly.


Signal path, setup:


I Robot - Alan Parson's Project, the definitive collection CD - Pleiades 2N3053 - Sennheiser HD580


At your own risk. Attention to your precious ears.


It may even be a beautiful noise. Is this the zero crossing point step digital noise? Sounds like FM radio noise combined with whistles and sea noise.


It is time to soon hear the Pleiades 2N3053 fed with an analog signal. Perhaps a record player. Or perhaps even better feeding directly with a live microphone connected to a Pleiades class A microphone head (pre) amplifier, eg V5, or V6.
