RE: I would say nearly all amplifier designs are conceptually WRONG!

Well the weight of history definitely causes a problem with buyer's perceptions...also the desire to sit in front of a stereo system and just listen to music does not seem to fit with many modern lifestyles.

That said, top quality anything is always a niche product. However, we are on a forum of supposedly fanatics about music reproduction...

I never said it was a good or easy business model. However, if all manufacturers stopped you are much more likely to be able to build a good sounding SET amp yourself than a complex Class D or transistor amp yourself.

I was talking about the whole concept of what makes an amp sound the best given the non-linear amplification technologies at our disposal.

It would be really great if someone could figure out a truly linear amplification device...maybe it is not even theoretically possible given physics as we know them??
