Hi and thanks for the explanation
You say that you have been told " "we measure the wrong things"
It is difficult for me to accept this but i have heard similar opinions me too and from famous designers, especially for electronics i wound say.
I am very confused.
For instance one of the big debates is around op-amps.
Many consider them unsuitable for music.
And still some very high end preamps using op-amp do exist.
Two i know of being the MBL 6010d and the Tom Evans The Vibe, and both are op-amps based and measure excellently, and sound also sublime.
I sincerely hope that the confusion is real and not intentional.
And then there are those infamous blind sessions ... where very cheap amps sound on par with much more expansive units, driving same speakers.
I stop. And i thank you very much again for the very interesting advice.
Kind regards,
bg
