[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1315817, member: 555320"] Or mismatched levels between amplifiers, or frequency response differences (again, add an EQ and get the same affect), etc etc. Amps aren't mythical unicorns.....everything they do can be described by science and, more importantly, [I]measured[/I]. If you heard a difference, you could measure that difference and determine exactly [I]why[/I] you heard a difference. More often than not, that difference isn't even due to the amps, but due to the setup of the amps. And the times it actually is the amplifier, you can measure said amplifier and determine exactly what is "different" to cause the sound characteristics you heard....and adjust other amps accordingly [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] PS: I'm not trying to start an argument here......just save you a little money from the thinking that a $1k amp must "sound better" than a $300 because XYZ said so, or because it's class A vs class A/B.
