Total Harmonic Distortion. All electronic devices add some form of distortion to a signal passing through them. In audio, one form of distortion is the addition of harmonics that are not present in the original signal. THD is a measurement of this and is represented as a ratio of the total of all the harmonics added against the original signal at the output of the device.
Has anyone used this combination? I recently purchased a Puretone and am loving it. I play in a jazz funk trio and many of the places I play in are quite small venues. I am not after full out drive but am thinking that the Hot Plate would allow me to get those tubes working a bit harder and get me to the clean but slightly breaking up tone that I am after.
I am going to apologize in advance if this has already been covered, however, I have not seen anything while searching the forums.
