So why have a completely transparent amp when the
speakers and room are so relatively poor.
** Very accurate, low distortion speakers are readily
available - but not necessarily cheap.
The prices are coming down, and they are not
prohibitive.
Indeed, and there's the rub for most people.
Treating a listening room so it does very little harm
to the sound
MORON. The whole point is that an untreated room does
a lot of harm to the room.

So resolved, if you have rotten speakers and a very
poor, untreated room, then tubed audio is for you!

No, all I said was a transparent amp in an already
seriously flawed system is pointless.

Right, but since when is our pursuit of the audio hobby
about intentionally using a seriously flawed system?



Who said intentionally? The average hi-fi person does not
have a clue about acoustics.

Since when do any of us aspire to the like the average hi fi person?
