I just know that "audiophile" values are to avoid the bright treble and prominent bass for a more subdued sound. Which is what it was like at the 40 Ohm setting.Yes, I paralleled the resistor with the 40 ohm load to reduce it to the other values.
Follow Ups:
Has anyone else played music? Am I the only one who cares about timbral accuracy?A brass instrument should BLAT out the sound. It is not smooth and refined. An Oboe will quiver. Smooth and refined makes it sound like a constipated Clarinet. Dulling the sound makes the first and second Violin lines congeal together. Violas sound like upper register Cellos.
Please!!! A true audiophile should be someone trying to somewhat reproduce true high fidelity sound. They would want a 4 ohm resistor. The so called audiophiles that want homogenized sound should save their money, their time, and their energy for other pursuits.
Make sure the soul is communicated in your music and you will always find satisfaction.
I generally with the above except for the condescending tone.Hey, this is a hobby and the reasons one occupies his time with it varies. Some like to hear the toot of a horn and others like to toot their horn.
Sorry for the tone.I really have it out for those that want the sound like syrupy mollasas (spelling error most definitely.)
