So... let me dumb this down a bit. Let's say on a scale from 1 -10 an Audison, Mac, F1, whatever can be tuned (altered) to sound like a 10. A Boss, or Pyle, Jensen, whatever can only be tuned or altered to sound like say... a 5? And in the parameters of his challenge he "de-tuned" the 10's to sound like 5's and tuned the 5's to their capabilities?
Is that what you're saying? Or can you tune the 5's to sound like 10's with good enough processing? Because I believe you can if we are operating within the capabilities of the amps and only using them as "amps" to amplify a procesed signal.
If a 2x100 Boss can only do 2x40 clean and we put it head to head with any other amp on the market to do 40w clean. You're telling me that there will be a difference? An AUDIBLE difference? If so, I need to do a lot more reading and critical listening.
