Just on the surface analysis, an SSR would sound like crap, overall, in any audio application.
This is so obvious to me, that I’ve never made it past the idea of looking at the acronym of SSR, and then moved along and away from such an idea.
Ie, that the thought was discarded as thoroughly as possible, before it even began.
Like the idea of taking the tuna sandwich I might be holding and smearing it on my face, as a way of ingesting it. Silly beyond belief, not to be considered a thought whatsoever.
And that’s what I think of the idea of SSR’s in audio gear. That the thought was discarded long ago, by just about anyone in the world of audio that you can imagine.
A gentle but quick mental/internal ’no, that’s not going to work’, and then they moved on. Relay or circuit breakers is better, as the quality in sound, is better. Better than any SSR.
And all those audio designers and engineers you might want to get an opinion from, they invariably understand audio quality and that definitely includes the power cords, the fuses, and the cables -- all as being important. This is about audio quality, not some numbers squeezed out on the face of a meter and analyzed via spec sheet.
1000 kilos of raw dung will, displacement wise... fit inside my car, and the volumetric spec is there for it, but I’m not about to test that or do it.
My response is mildly over the top but honest in my analysis of SSR’s and my opinion on them in quality audio... I’m just reflecting the seeming mood of the OP itself....
