...DBTs can be useful in product development or research.
I don't find them much more than a parlor trick at home.
Every successful equipment designer I know of fine-tunes his finished product by ear.
The idea that most all amps sound the same is ridiculous when you think about the different designs, topology, parts quality, etc. and the different loads they are driving.
Back when I was reviewing, I heard 3 identical amplifiers (Adcom 535s) that all sounded different - it turned out they were all biased differently. The best sounding one was biased correctly.
