"And the people who design them for a living seem to have never listened to live music" You think so?? Many I am sure do."That or they are deaf" That's the pot calling the kettle black, Mr. all amps sound the same (if they are properly designed of course. Is that designed to measure well or sound good, or both?)
"Or they have no imagination or insight into what they and most everyone is doing wrong" A more likely scenario.
"This is hardly what I expect from someone with a PHD in a scientific discipline"
Happy to disappoint you. How do I know you are not deaf? Honestly I don't think you have the first clue about what is involved in scientific endeavor. I have the proof of my abilities to do rigorous scienctific investigations (14 peer reviewed publications, I can provide references if you like). What proof do I have that you aren't some kook who just has a bunch of highly modified junk at home and convinces himself its nirvana. Besides, what are your credentials to be able to critique my scientific or analytical abilities??You are actually one of the least scientific people that posts here as you blindly accept conventional engineering "wisdom" from 30 years ago even though now many of the engineers admit there is something wrong in there somewhere. True much of it is still valid, especially when designing things not related to audio and not requiring human perception to be taken into account. But much of the "conventional" thinking from then, especially with regard to feedback, is no longer accepted dogma because listeners have spoken and said "stop making bad sounding electronics...measurements be damned". Scienists are not stuck in conservative old ways of thinking, especially when there is sufficient evidence that the old ways have severe flaws.
I am critical because you are defending a position that is untenable to anyone who listens carefully and critically. Hell even my girlfriend, who only has a passing interest in hifi, can easily tell when I have changed amps or preamps in my system (she is a professional musician though). It doesn't matter to her if all amps sound the same or not (in fact she would probably prefer it that way so I spent money elsewhere) but she sure notices when they are different or just plain bad.
