I'm listening to 2 amps one is very forward sounding the other is more recessed sounding, which sound do you prefer? I myself have always had the more recessed sounding amps and have enjoyed them so this is completely different sounding to me, not bad just different.
I'm listening to some Jane Siberry and want to wrap my arms around her, that's how 3 dimensional the sound is, this with the forward sounding amps. Truly I'm talking about a different sonic perspective.
That depends on why the amplifier takes on the stage that it does. Warm bold forward sound turns me off as does a lazy laid back tone. However I'm happy with either dynamic & sparkly or a neutral 'just the facts' presentation.
In point so long as the midrange doesn't overpower the other bands I'd declare a slight preference for forward.
