what I like most about my Ncore is its midrange capability which had always been the domain of tube designs. It took me many years to fully appreciate what one of my mentors spoke of frequently.
Once designers are able to completely remove the ultrasonic *fuzz* on square waves (as Dan D'agostino puts it), the upper octaves will likely be free of the haze they possess.
Today, they fail miserably without first putting a filter on the test gear. Courtesy of Stereophile, the Bel Canto Black using Ncore technology:
