Luciano Peccerini, Jr.
Location:
Sao Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo, Brazil
Education:
Electronic Engineering, with an MA in Industrial Automation
Occupation:
Luciano owns LPJ Audio (www.amplificadores.com.br), which is a small business that designs and builds pre- and power vacuum-tube amplifiers. He also teaches analog electronics and digital techniques in a federal technical school in his hometown “just to keep younger ones hooked,” he said.
Member Status:
He subscribes to audioXpress because he really enjoys discovering all there is to learn about vacuum tubes.
Audio Organization Affiliations:
Luciano is a member of the Audio Engineering Society (AES). Audio Interests: Luciano says his primary interests involve tube gear, mostly preamplifiers and power amplifiers.
Most Recent Audio Purchase:
Among his most recent acquistions were a pair of 211 vacuum tubes for a single-ended Class-A power amplifier.
Current Audio Projects:
Luciano is working on a power amplifier that he is setting up to run a pair of 300-B speakers.
Dream System:
For the perfect setup, Luciano would include Audio Note’s ONGAKU, which is a 211 single-ended stereo amplifier. ONGAKU is designed to a high impedance of 12 kΩ with multi-layer, multi-compartment structure. The windings are pure silver wires. It also has a silver capacitor, which uses a pure silver foil as electrode and is specially designed to prevent the potential oscillation with the foil.
