Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

RE: And in some cases (yours in particular), there's apparently...

Does that mean that you believe that there are better watts than others, in a technical sense I mean?

Or does it mean that your subjective audiophile's sensitivities are jangled by curt responses meant to prod the faithful?

A bunch of things matter in amp design and production, but to take one unit of measurement and twist it to make it say falsehoods is simply wrong.

The small amp sweet amp mantra is one of those counter-intuitive notions dear to subjective (are there any others?) audiophiles.

I think that to take technical terms and subjective terms and make a mishmash out of the whole thing is akin to tavern talk: maybe a lot of fun, but don't confuse it with any real effort to describe and analyze reality.
