Priorities clearly differ. Some like *hyper* detail.
It is my understanding the Halcro used feedback,and lots of it.
It's no mystery that's always how you get superlative THD specs playing sine waves. The Soulution amps follow the same design philosophy. Likewise some like it while others find its presentation unnaturally sterile. As Michael Fremer said in his review of the 710:
"But superb measurements don't always yield superb sound. Amplifiers designed to produce vanishingly low distortion can sound cold and uninvolving. That's how I felt about the Halcros. There was no there there."
I guess it depends upon your reference of what live music sounds like.
