Sorry, that's conventional wisdom.

Hi.

If 0 is the answer, 1+1=2 unless you get 1-1. Then you'd get zero.

Practically the realworld situation todate, we can't have 1-1=0 as the active devices we got todate are not distortion free. Static analysis with conventional sinewave summations won't give us the realtime transient behaviour of an active device. Yet our ears can detect it.

Our auditory perception in our brain still beats the best intrumenetation available todate given the data measured being pretty remote from what our brain can perceive. We are not measuring the right data.

So instead of fighting a lost battle on a dead-end street, why don't we turn around & can a solution to achieve something closer to zero. So using lesser active devices/stages possible will mean 1+0 (zero ADDITIONAL active device) = 1, closer to zero than 2. Correct?

This is the basic concept we got to have as an audio designer/builder.
More may not be more helpful sonically. My skeptical ears plus my very frequenct exposure to live acoustical music performances tell me so.
