RE: Pass Labs class A

Define better. We all have personal tastes. I hope not to hear musical. That's a non answer. High fidelity isn't musical ; it's supposed to be accurate. The question in an audio world with imperfect devices is what compromises to make to come close to accurate. Is it frequency? Is it dynamics? Is it distortion? It's all the above and balancing them to some degree varies with each individual. I recall David Berning showing me an amp with variable feedback that sounded better the higher the distortion because the dynamics improved. Oh and the amp was almost pure class B.

Your particular example of class A may be right for you. I'm not sure it is universal.
