TDA1013 4.2W Power Amplifier - The TDA1013 is an integrated audio amplifier
circuit with DC volume control, encapsulated in a 9-lead single in-line (SIL) plastic
package. The wide supply voltage range makes this circuit ideal for applications in
mains and battery-fed apparatus such as television receivers and record players. The
DC volume control stage has a logarithmic control characteristic with a range of more
than 80 dB; control is by means of a DC voltage variable between 2 and 6.5 V.

The Emperor's New Amplifier - I spent much of 1997 designing and building my
ultimate dream amplifier, which I named "The Emperor's New Amplifier"TM (TENA) for a
quality it shares with the fabled emperor's wardrobe-- transparency. It was also an
oblique reference to the marketing hype that pollutes high-end audio. I thought about
commercializing it, especially when the lab where I worked announced it was shutting
down, but I soon realized that marketing high-end tube amplifiers is not a reliable
