[QUOTE="valter, post: 3163939, member: 577964"] Amplifier should amplify the signal without changing it, it's not a signal processor. In reality, most changes in sound comes from build-in crossover and design of preamp / driver /output stage. A lot of amps todays uses similar design, but there are few, that are very different. Triple darlington amplifiers (like older PG for example, new Brax/Steg), fully mosfet ones (Adcom) have their specific sound coloration due to their design. Noone disagrees, that there is a color theory, which gives us understanding what color combination are pleasant to eye... Same with amps, one specific coloration of signal is more pleasant then other... Why amps with almost no negative feedback (tubes) sound so good? And this has nothing to do with THD. THD of even the best speaker will be well over 1% [/QUOTE]
