Absolutely...and that is why I try and learn from everyone.
But if I attach meaning to their words, it would be MY opinions, not theirs.

This thing seemed to get blown out of proportion. I was simply asking for the definitions of the words - from a poster that I admire for his objectivity, vast experiences and willingness to listen without preconceived notions. All to often the line is stated that "all (insert piece here) sound the same", and names are dropped, reviews touted - for the most part by people who have never taken the time to go and listen for themselves......

Keep an open mind, and prove it to yourself. If you hear a difference or not - GREAT! You have proven to yourself if the theory/myth exists.

What a great deal we can learn if we allow ourselves to utilize all data available!

...sorry...just rambling!

I would pretty much expect the Ah! to sound different, due to the fact that tubes are used in the DAC (make sure you don't use the digital outs, or you've REALLY wasted your money!). They tend to have a different sound than solid state due to various issues I won't get into here as to not start a flame war...

trust me kcarlie, I won't!
