Re: Beauhorn Virtuoso Ref.

High Eric,
I'm sure as a manufacturer, you don't want to get drawn in to a discusion about another manufacturer's products, so I'll steer well clear.
I would however like to correct you on one point. Jeremy did not accuse the Beauhorns of sounding hard. What he actually said was;
>>if I had any criticism of the Beauhorns, it was that they exhibited a slight hardness on transients<<
This is quite different.
Your premise was that the Beauhorns were revealing a digital signature in Jeremy's system that the Avantgardes were not revealing.
But my experience is that digititis, when present, is present as a certain hardness or glassiness in the midrange, especially on female vocal. Hardness heard only on transients however usually has more to do with signal compression somewhere in the system. It is therefore quite feasible that it is physically present in one combination of equipment and completely absent in another.
