No - it is merely revealing your faulty assumptions. The test is

Here you show both your ignorance and your bias !! A opinion back by no
facts at all just an opinion of poorly designed SET systems you have heard
before.


The problem is that there's no such thing as a *well* designed SET amp
- by definition! :-)

That's why push-pull operation was invented in the '20s, and only
audiofools want to go back to before those days...............


Interesting that most of the well informed members of RAT tended to
disagree with you vehently on this point. They if anyone have experience
with SET. Have you actually taken the trouble to listen to a good SET
(for example Andre's Kiss amplifier) playing Shostokovich ¨
String Quartets or a small chamber ensemble? Quite remarkable:-)
Your Krell, and most other amplifiers, I am told, fade in comparison.

Not recommended though for fans of Metalica:-)
