Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
I decided to prototype a quick +3 dB gain stage with a 5534 to check the resistor values. With 6K19 and 15K at their ideal values we hit 3 dB within 0.08 dB. I confirmed exactly 3 dB via measurement. THD isn't bad although I really don't have the instrumentation to measure beyond 6KHz. Near the clip...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
In the above drawing it's not clear whether the AD797 is inverting or non-inverting. It's non-inverting Paul. So there's no additional re-inversion required. Because it's non-inverting, the CM performance of that stage requires careful op-amp selection. That's why we looked at the AD797 vs. a Natio...

Venus, Jupiter and Moon Alignment
Have you looked at the moon recently?
Here's the view from Australia. In the northern hemisphere it's inverted.

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
Isnt eaiser to have a switch to select between Cut/boost ? So when the pot is fccw there is 0 gain eihter way, in cut mode fcw this would mean 3dbcut and so on. I might have missed if you discussed this already. That could be done too but it doesn't eliminate the need for a "fixed" gain s...

Paul G wrote: What about having the decode line receiver 1240 feed a switch that is an attenuator with a maximum output of -6dB and have 6dB of makeup gain from an opamp afterward? The output of the opamp would have a low enough impedance to feed the decode circuit. I think it's almost exactly what ...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
Looking at Wayne's gain trim circuit above the only downside I see is that the mono sum will be between 3dB and 6dB up already. Having 3dB of gain at the input might have headroom issues. It seems that to "fix" this you would give up the precise level matching by having makeup gain set by...

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
Thanks Paul and Roger. Here's the variation of the circuit using a pot: https://www.ka-electronics.com/Images/jpg/M-S_Variable_Gain_Trim_Pot.jpg https://www.ka-electronics.com/Images/jpg/M-S_Variable_Gain_Trim_Pot.jpg Not shown of course are the detailed 1243 or follower connections... The layout lo...

OK, so it's not as tall. Cool.

Re: Mid Side M-S Matrix Uses No Precision Resistors
RF; I think a 797 would be fine but we ought to try one for follower unity gain stability issues. I think it will need a 100R Rfb and an optional 100R series resistor with the In+ input pin 3. See http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/AD797.pdf#page=13 Figures 36 and 37. I used the...

Re: Using the THAT1646 As A Transistor Pre-Driver/Headphone Amp
Does it fit the same layout? Is it bigger or smaller than the original one? I'm confused.
