Paul,
very interesting comment and observations.
The Fi is wired for 8 Ohms - I could rewire it ;), on the Verdier 45 I used the 8 Ohm tap. I may try to borrow the Verdier 45 again and try the 4 Ohm tap. The Fi Super X 2A3 does certainly very well on bass with the Abbys.
From what I heard so far - I agree that the circuit design overall has more impact on the overall sound. The my friend's Bottlehead Paramours and my SEX amp had some very similar signatures (at low volumes into the Abbys). Also, I doubt that any of Don Garber's amps would ever sound thick ;)
Best wishes,
Rene
