Looking for a new Amp or Preamp? If you're after tubes, post over here.

Well put: is it lack of "bad" distortion or the addition of "good" distortion

Virtually all of the sort of amps favored by Morricab have have high levels of 2nd order distortion, especially at high frequencies and higher output levels.

You might be comparing SETs with 2% or higher 2nd order distortion versus SS or class D amps with .01% or less Total HD. Assuming you think the SETs sound better -- which might be purely personal preference that not everybody shares -- it needs to proven that it's the vanishingly low high-order rather than high 2nd that is making the SET sound "better".



NOT the 51st state, eh!?!
