Todd, your comments regarding tone and dynamic linearity are consistent with my experiences also, though I had not really thought about it.

I agree that dynamics and tone are not mutually exclusive; however, accurate tone at live levels in a domestic environment might be. Well, it is at least challenging, expensive... and undesirable in my case. I don't want a system that sounds balanced at live levels then lifeless and lean at levels I normally listen.

My preferences are for ease, musical flow, nuance, convincing tone and vitality... up to a volume level I might listen to a couple of times a year but, but not live levels. This is achievable in a domestic environment using simple systems comprising lowish power SET amps and well-designed efficient speakers.

Thanks for the contribution.
