In reply to:

think the whole notion of receivers being "warm" or "bright" is somewhat false. especially solid state receivers.

Have you compared receivers?

I have heard more then my fair share of receivers and anyone who thinks a Yamaha and a HK for example sound the same, have obviously never heard both. HK, Parasound and a few others at least in my opinion bring a "Warm" feel to the table.

I have always found it interesting that high current, high amperage products always get the term warm thrown at them. Everytime someone says a receiver or amp etc is warm sounding I go running for the specs and sure enough 95% of the time it turns out to be a high current, high amperage design..........There must be something to it.
