Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?

Al, makes sense. Thanks.

Al; where the heck did you get this knowledge?

I'm an EE with extensive analog and digital design experience (for defense electronics, not for audio), and I've been an audiophile for about 35 years. Audio has always been of interest to me from a technical standpoint as well as a musical standpoint.

Thank you Al, but look who my tech is talking to. I need simple. All my amps are in that optimal range you suggest but I can attest to your suspicion that low noise floor plays a key role in realistic sound stage and what sets amps apart from one another with otherwise similar specs.

So this is why our military has all the good stuff they do. I always assumed NASA reversed engineered alien technology. I should have known better.
