RE: Integrated Amp for bedroom System

Abe, I have followed your postings for years and you are generally astute.
I did not jump to the conclusion that the original poster was a one note freak, but he was obviously a newbie.
To reopen the can of worms, I think that there has to be an objective standard, and to me that is live generally un- or minimally amplified music, which I am in a position to hear or play several times a week, or at least what is on the recording.
Note that I did not refer to an overdriven room in a bar where the EQ has been set by a 19 year old.
This whole conversation would have Harry Pearson spinning in his grave.
If an audio reviewer generally turned his bass up to 12 would you place any value in his writings? I think not.
I once took a friend to an audio salon. He was disappointed in the bass of a $20K speaker that clearly had all the bass when it was really on the recording. That was my concern.
