Hi there!
Does anybody know a webpage with a good critical review on the VTA of Floyd Sweet?
Best regards and keep up the good work.
Guys, I don?t know about you but for a long time I wanted to test this device myself here.
http://www.rexresearch.com/mra/1mra.htm#newzpe (http://www.rexresearch.com/mra/1mra.htm#newzpe)
But I just couldn?t find the most important parts of this device
1-Barrium Ferrite Magnet and
2-Barrium Titanite Piezo
I looked everywhere for years? But finally there is light at the end of the tunnel
(as they say) I have custom ordered these 2 special parts with a very small extra number of them to cover my cost.
The sizes of the magnet as you see on the picture, but
for the barium titanite piezo no picture or size yet!
If you are interest for this 2 special parts please reserve them by dropping me quick note to
mksboysal@drivehq.com

er... Sorry, but that link you provided very clearly states:
"One other point, the crystal transducer was thought to be barium titanate and there is reason to believe it is in fact titanium zirconate."
so are you sure you have the right material?
Be that as it may, it is an interesting idea. ;)
And since your post is a few months old now,
have you built and tested it yet?
What were the test results? Any luck?
Koen, I couln't get the parts from China! This project is on hold.
Mem.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that...
Thing is, as far as I know Sweet's VTAs used specially "programmed" barium ferrite magnets.
And he never told anyone exactly how he "conditioned" his magnets.
Bearden witnessed a number of Sweet's VTAs, and even had a look at the magnets, and he says
the barium ferrite magnets Sweet used were somehow manipulated, he suggests some internal
resonance achieved somehow, which allowed you to put a piece of wire mesh or metal plating on top of the brick shaped magnets,
and the piece of mesh/plate would flip from side to side (from 45 degree angle to the magnet on one side, to 45 degree angle on the opposite side, and back)
continuously, with no additional input. He even claims to have locked one of these magnets with flipping mesh on it inside a safe for a day,
and it was still flipping when he took it out...
Now that seems to indicate it was not just barium ferrite magnets, but that they have to be "conditioned" somehow...
Have you thought about this, in respect to your plan to replicate a VTA?

He has done a lot of research on the VTA, but unfortunately he hasn't been successfull yet :(
