We're discussing compression, which can be measured objectively -
please don't try to divert the discussion onto the metaphysical. Show
me compression.

**DBTs are not metaphysical. They allow REAL differences to be heard.
Tell
me about your experiences with DBTs between MOSFET and BJT amps.


Stop changing the subject. Either there is compression as you claim,
or there is not. Show me evidence of compression.

**I cannot. Try the test and let me know what you hear. Perhaps you will
have a different explanation. Negative tempco of gm is the only thing that
makes sense to me.

We are discussing one single parameter - compression. Once you start
with nonsense like seeing what you hear, you are no longer able to
isolate that parameter - you hear the sum of everything. And of course
mixed in with your "just listen" thing is all your bull****tery with
terms like "more dynamic". This is meaningless drivel, and the
standard recourse of the charlatan trying to claim superior skills of
discernment to the average man. It won't wash. You made the claim, now
substantiate it or withdraw it.

**I'm uncertain of what you are demanding I withdraw. Are you demanding that
I withdraw my theory that pertains to why MOSFET amps sound so bad? Or are
you demanding I withdraw what I and others hear?

Given the problems that many people hear with MOSFET amps, I proferred a
theory. I cannot validate that theory. If you have an alternate theory to
explain what people hear, then please present it.

As for claims of "superior skills of discernment", I make no such claims. My
hearing is just average. Anyone with average hearing will easily discern the
problems I speak of. I suggest you conduct your own test and confirm.
Perhaps you will develop a more credible theory.
