		Ideally placed at the internexus of Europe and America, of continents and cultures, of English and French, the NFB was the incubus which catalysed what was to be one of the most important audio-visual revolutions of our times.
		In the late 1950s and 1960s not only were the new technologies codeveloped there, like the use of portable cameras and synch sound, 10mm lenses and lavalier lapel mikes, but also the approach--using the film like a notebook and the camera like a pen--as Michel Brault calls it.
		The NFB has finally made the great leap forward and weaned itself off the chemical and celluloid cinema and wholeheartedly embraced digitalia.

	Hoffman Amplifiers - NFB Resistor combinations
		I see on many amps a combination of 820 ohms for the NFB and the resistor to ground off the PI as 100 ohms.
		I think the most important relationship is between the impedence of the tap feeding the NFB loop and the value of the NFB resistor.
		IOW, the higher the impedence of the OT tap used to feed the NFB, the higher the resistance of the NFB resistor used must be in order to acheive the same amount of NFB.
