RE: At best Cheever defines the euphonic, not the accurate

"With negative feedback you trade some relatively inocuous 2nd and 3rd order harmonics to get a whole myriad of little high order harmonics that are anything but benign."

Well, not if it's fast enough... but I think most audio power bugs are more focused on SOA than speed. I have actually not designed any of my amplifiers since my single-ended tube youth, maybe I should. One of these days I'll measure what sort of actual power levels I run in my main system. Years ago I checked my study stereo and it was almost nothing, just a watt or two, I'm decidedly not a head-banger so my power-amp is prolly silly overkill. But it sounds pretty good... When warm.
