>>To me, bloom means expand outward like a flower blooming in slow motion.

I figured that's what your definition was! A bloooming flower occupies more space than a non-blooming flower & I noticed that your soundstage expanded w/ volume. To me that implied that the images are not fixed in the soundstage & that there is signal-level dependent distortion. A bad thing!
From whatever I have heard & read, bloom is NOT an expansion in the soundstage! That's all I wanted to point out.
[Most of us are out during Audio Jargon 201! :-) It's a moving target with far too many adjectives to describe sound as we cannot be phy present w/ the listener writing his account. Anyway, I've tried my best to read up on the words' definitions esp. if I chose to use it/them so that I do not use it/them in ignorance. That might a good policy to adopt?]

Well, we are having an audio discussion & I'm NOT attacking you personally. So, please do not get that idea.

Look forward to your further comments once you have had more chance to A/B the ESB & NG.
