Steel String Singer - SP118 Inductor

[watchthedivers]

Hey everyone, first post so let me know if this should be in the "for sale" section.

I'm building a SSS#002 with the amazing chassis I just got from erwin_ve with his boards.

The .3h inductor has a min order on every site I've found. Given that I don't reallyyy need even a single 100w SSS ...doubt I'll use the 10~ SP118's I end up with.

I'm likely ordering anyway but figured I'd post here in case someone needs one. I will gladly ship them at cost plus shipping.

Let me know if you're planning a build and need one.

Price for 4 is $35 each so they'll likely be $45~ each shipped to you.
Price for 10 is $20 each so they'll likely be $25~ each shipped to you.

I'll be ordering in the next day or two. If there are enough people I will order more for the price break. Let me know!

I have a couple of these inductors in brand new condition. So if somebody need them and is located in Europe, give me a message

I used a Mesa inductor LOL Blasphemy

[Reeltarded]

Fasel inductor for wha is .5h just putting that out there. One arrives here tomorrow for under $20 shipped.

I'm not making a SSS. I am making something different. I'm making a mess.

Not sure why people are still pursuing this. If you are using the filter schematic as it is understood here, the inductor does nothing.

SANTA IS REAL!!

The tick when you turn the treble control is a little tocky.

Wouldn’t be the first time that something, that was supposed to do nothing , did something…

Everyone knows that if you coil the curly with extra love just like grandma did it always comes out better .

I've often wondered about this, I know you did the tests, and I know it proves that it's not actively doing anything. Made me think of at least one situation as to WHY he legitimately may have used it. Inductors help block ac current but allow dc, right, i.e. a targeted noise suppressor in many cases. Maybe, for whatever reason, on that amp he was having a ground loop or buzz or some kind of noise and he just installed it where he used to have a simple jumper and it removed the noise... Or some other silly thing like that... and it's why it's not something he used wholesale everywhere, only on that amp?

Or were these used on all the SSS?

Already debunked myself, the inductor is inline not to ground and... is in all three I can see 001,002,004... Maybe still some kind of noise rejection thingy? At any rate, yeah still seems odd, maybe some of his attempts to confuse/make it look fancier (black magic right?)

The frequency of the soul is a cube root situation going downhill and inverse square going up.

No matter what, I will hear a difference. (chills) So spooky.

I actually bought the fasel because I have a situation in which it will work after my experiment with the spirit world.

Beats never hearing a difference , no matter what .

What’s the frequency range effected ?

Even if it’s within an inaudible range why couldn’t it possibly modulate the audible range?

We can’t hear 50 kHz , but according literature I have read a record player can put out frequencies up to that range, and we all know how audiophiles feel about records vs CD and digital.

Tbh and tbf , I haven’t tried any of this dumble inductor circuitry toying

Food for thought:

https://journals.physiology.org/doi/ful ... .83.6.3548

“We conclude, therefore, that inaudible high-frequency sounds with a nonstationary structure may cause non-negligible effects on the human brain when coexisting with audible low-frequency sounds. We term this phenomenon the “hypersonic effect” and the sounds introducing this effect the “hypersonic sound.”

https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10 ... 00093/full

“The present study shows that high-resolution audio that retains high-frequency components has an advantage over similar and indistinguishable digital sound sources in which such components are artificially cut off, suggesting that high-resolution audio with inaudible high-frequency components induces a relaxed attentional state without conscious awareness.“

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/a ... via%3Dihub

“The results of the present study suggest that the intensity of inaudible HFC non-linearly modulates human sound perception.”

Can a guitar speaker reproduce those frequencies?
