RE: The goal is the same.

I think it is far more complicated than even that, Ralph and that it is not just the presence or absence of something but also the PATTERN of what is there or is not there. This is something Jean Hiraga noticed about 25 years ago that a logarithmicly descending distortion pattern containing both even and odd harmonics was consistent with good sounding electronics. Many things in nature have this kind of signature and our ear/brain is wired around this and the masking of low order harmonics and the absence of high order ones, except at loud volumes.
