Allow me to correct that:

"His grey matter that accomodates only one BAD idea at a time"

This insolent and stupidly transparent


Yes the man is overwhelmingly stupid. It's uncanny, how stupid he is. For
example he once wrote that (while defending krueger's qsc amps to paul
packer) :

"Not all qsc amps sound the same you know, you should give a listen" ..

This coming from an idiot that constantly purports to the notion that all
amps sound the same, whether they be halcro monoblocks or yamaha
receivers.


They don't sound the same because they do not all possess flat FR.

I don't claim that all amps sound the same as you just proved. The ones
that do sound the same are the ones that have FR that doesn't vary more than
..2 dB over the audible range and have no other noise of any kind that would
be audible. That holds true for any amp of any brand.

If you ever tried a blind comparison of a Yamaha receiver vs. a Halcro you'd
discover how much alike they sound.

You do remember that Zip couldn't tell the difference between a pair of Pass
monoblocks against a Yamaha ingtegrated amp, don't you?

That you buy into the amplifier mythology is not my problem.
It is not difficult to build an amp that produces flat FR and inaudible
noise, it just costs more to buy one that is made by small comapnies that
can't buy parts in large enough quantities to reduce the price, or they have
labor costs that require them to sell for more to produce a profit.

If Beharinger can build an amp that is as flat as their A500 and sell it for
$189.00, then it should be a simple task for anyone to build a flatter one
for just a bit more. Read the review of the A500 at TAC online and you will
see that it's only off by a tiny bit in the HF, which is going to be
inaudible for most people and barely audible to the rest. Getting that last
bit of flat FR shouldn't cost thousands more, and doesn't for most
manufacturers.
