Again, what accounts for McIntosh's or any other brands "house sound" ? ..Some Mac amps have auto-formers, some don't, some are SS, some are tube, some are 40 years old, some brand new. How would this house sound be maintained over the years if no one knows what accounts for it?? Particularly if the boost in some frequencies and drop in others doesn't even show up in measurements (sorry, but that is a ridiculous assertion, in my view).You said my amp sounds "syrupy, thick" "..like mud". ..How is it possible that I've had so many people, many of whom are just as devoted to enjoying music as you, over to listen to it and NONE have noticed is sounding like mud?
And I think you're more guilty of creating straw man arguements than I. ..You're basically saying that if you're an experienced listener, you will find mac gear to sound warm, which is at least a softening of your initial description of "syruppy, thick, and mud-like".
..nonsense.
