ASR's review of the Mini GaN 5 was quite negative, (see link below). Issues included high distortion, high load sensitivity, and failure to meet specifications.

I dismissed that negative review long ago by simply listening to the amp. If it would have failed that test, it would have been returned. I think they also gave a negative review to a much pricier GaN amp. Maybe the one sold by Underwood, but I'm not sure. Bottom line is that all my testing is done by ear. I'm sure my SET would receive a negative review spec-wise as well. I really have little use for that site to be honest, but it's an each to his own hobby and of course, YMMV.
What we hear is the final arbitrator.

Then why the continued references to a site that judges quality strictly by measurements?
You bet. But in most cases,(mine included) it takes some time and experience to separate from reviews/reviewers and trust one's own ear. As you say, the final arbitrator.
