You will enjoy this test
https://www.goldenears.philips.comI got "Gold Level", but still find it usefull to measure. I think it is nice to know that my system both sounds good, AND is well designed and engineered, and is in good condition.
Besides studying the technicalites of audio equipment brings a second element into the hobby. Measuments are a very helpul tool to optimise the system.Fascinating to see that good measurement may not correlate with good sound, but bad measurements often correlate with bad sound, but not always. We all can tolerate a good dose of second harmonic distortion :) Maybe that is why we still enjoy tubes?....
Best regards
