I have a Pioneer VSX-1014TX-K reciever that is touted as having A.D.E. MOSFET amplication. Could someone please tell me what this means, I looked on the internet but could not find any info.
Could someone reply please, or is everyone as lost on the subject as I am?

MOSFET's are another type of transistor output device. They are characterized as having a sound more like tubes than typical bipolar transistors. The A.D.E. portion is likely a description of a circuit design Pioneer has "created" for this year's model of amplifiers. Don't expect to see it on anyone else's amplifier or on next year's Pioneers. I'm sure your owner's manual will have a dazzling explanation of what A.D.E. technology is meant to improve.
alright, send me an email with ur number in it and ill give u a shout.

MOSFET stands for Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistor. It's a much higher performance design than the old standard PNP or NPN type transistors. They have a very sensetive input and can respond to higher frequencies well. As for the A.D.E., no idea what that is. mz
