E-Stat,
Here's what you said, "I agree about the importance of the "warmth" region"
Now you say, "Why on earth would I want to do that? As for me, I prefer a neutral overall response." I do too. But aren't you somewhat confused? And does your concept of 'neutrality' preclude the presence of 'warmth', as you call it?
As to your 'gracious' offer; a glance at the post above will comfirm that I'm perfectly happy with my own system - more than any I can think of. Go ahead and search - you certainly wouldn't find any thread with me complaining about my components, or the sound (and then turning around to pretend I wasn't - just to impress onlookers). So why would you want to make such an offer.
However, if you'll get back to me, I tell you exactly what you can do with it.
Have a nice day!

I'll respond to your statement again:
that you are serious about getting more 'warmth' from your (main?) system, in particular.
No, I don't want *more* warmth. I took considerable pains to get audibly and measurably flat response and that is where I want the sound to stay. Don't need exaggerated response!
And does your concept of 'neutrality' preclude the presence of 'warmth', as you call it?
Not at all. Some electronics and systems sound thin in the warmth region. Some systems sound overblown in that region. I prefer neutrality to either extreme. Not thin. Not warm. Got it?

...as evidenced by his response to you as you attempt to provide your input which he asked us to do.
He's done the same to me. I provided my input backed with examples and all he wants to do is cite some online rag and convince you that you're wrong. And when he can't, he resorts to being rude.
with a characteristic that is highly system dependent.
My system is similar to Mike's in its "attenuator friendly" nature: GamuT CDP with both low impedance (75 ohms) and high output (4 volts) combined with a first cousin to the amp both of you have - the VTL MB450 - which also has high input impedance (137k ohms) and high sensitivity (1.5 volts). I also use short, low cap ICs.
There's nothing to fix. Sheesh!
