RE: N core

So a straight wire with gain is NOT "boring." I got it. Whew!
But hold on now.......you said "Boring." What's the difference between "boring" and "Boring"??

Seems like you've made a conclusion on your friends amp with little facts to support it. If the amp measured exemplary on the bench, then clearly the measurements were not sufficient and/or your subjective evaluation had some other explanation.
The immediate knee-jerking to a position that bench testing is inherently insufficient to identify subjective performance is just the easy way out and indicates a lack of intellectual curiosity. I submit that a more rigorous testing scheme probably would have identified the "issue" you noted. Or at least given you some further insight.

Dave.
