Hammy: Bob Carver's older design's wouldn't pass the spec test and that's why they don't pass the sonic test either. If you think that they did / would pass the spec test, then you're not interpreting the spec's right.
Having said that, you can believe / interpret things the way that you want, but i've already proven to more than a few here that my interpretation of sonics based on measured performance is pretty close. After all, some of these folks have emailed me with nothing but spec's, yet i was able to describe to them what they were hearing, why and how to at least partially correct it. I've also made similar statements publicly about a couple of different amps, their sonic traits and their lack of ability to integrate into various systems. Others that own / have owned those amps supported those comments. The comments that i made were based on interpretation of technical data derived from test results. I'm not saying that everyone can do this, but obviously, some folks can do it better than others. Sean
