Default Dynamic phase shift

Let's hear some more about this dynamic phase shift that pours a pint
of vinegar into a Crown preamp. I'm not overimpressed with vanishign
THD but this is an amazing explanation for why so many silicon amps,
and not a few tube amps, sound like ****.


First he needs to define what is occuring. I think he means phase modulation
by the dynamics of the amplitude changes, so that during
increase and decrease of signal amplitudes, the phase of a signal
is tweaked to lag or lead during the amplitude change.

Let's see what he really means to say.
