I simply don't get this. I've been using 5 SS amps of
late (Quad 405, Rose power amp, Cambridge AV, Behringer
A500, and that within a Pure mini system), as well as
others on and off over the years, and I feel each has 'a
sound of its own'.

Good choice of words - "I feel". IOW what your emotions
tell you, not necessarily what well-reasoned testing
would tell you.

Yep, why waste time *listening* to a bit of kit when you
could just stick a meter on it....??

Agreed that sighted listening is pretty worthless, if the equipment is
good enough to be interesting.


Anybody who sits staring at a bit of audio kit while it plays (typically
the cartridge on a turntable, I find) needs a slap round the chops....
