Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

Re: morricab, you might try considering the problem from the opposite end

" I know you think all well designed amps sound the same"

I would like you to point to even one instance in the years I have been posting here where I ever said that. Quite the opposite, I learned a long time ago that they don't. But I attribute most of their differences to differences in real world (connected to a loudspeaker instead of a risistor) frequency response which IMO is correctable using active equalization. I have no problem using this method although I must admit that the casual user who merely twiddles the controls endlessly and aimlessly has no hope of using this powerful tool to its real potential or even to any real advantage. As I've said, it usually takes me two years to successfully adjust one (I have one system going on 2 1/2 years now.) And how do I know that amplifiers sound different? Because when I substitute one in a system for another as when one blew up on me, I had to start re-equalizing the system all over again. And it took just about 2 years to get it right.
