Since we, as of yet, don't have "fidelity" your comment sort of falls flat. We only have different degrees of "fidelity", and different takes on "fidelity". I certainly don't think 0.1% of distortion in an amp is worse than dynamic compression or various room generated problems. -- P Floding No, I didn't ABX it. And I won't even if you ask me.
