Luxman tonality

millercarbon you really nailed this comment well.

“What happened was we stopped listening and started measuring“

I have never heard of anyone who chose an amp by measuring it rather than listening to it.  Have you guys?  I think the testing gear would be extremely expensive and require a lot of education to properly operate.

I think amp designers and manufacturers should measure the equipment they build.  I would not buy one that had been built without any measurements.  How it sounds is what counts in the end, but it helps to get where you want to go if you have some idea of what's causing the sound you hear. 

I'm sure that Luxman, Rogue and Sugden products are measured extensively before they are put into production.

Your disagreement then is with reality. I know nowadays we each are supposed to be able to have our own reality. Good luck with that. Me, I'll stick with the actual, you know, reality.

I don't have a problem with definitions, I'm kind of a stickler there. I think I probably just got turned around one too many times between your post, and the one you were originally replying to. Also I don't really disagree with that whole 'reality' thing, not sure why you'd say such a thing.
You have a lot of good stuff that you post, but people don't even bother to read a lot of it because of the condescending demeanor that comes along with it. It doesn't help, there's no positive component to it, at least for anyone here. If there is for you, perhaps some self-contemplation is in order.
Lets sum up - I did disagree with you, although I may have misunderstood what you were saying. It's a possibility. I don't disagree with the definition of 'euphonic', nor do I need to look it up. I understand words have meanings. I'm a fan of that.
I don't disagree with 'reality', I'm all for it. Nor do I have 'my own reality'. For anyone with an IQ above room temperature, the concept is absurd.
You make a lot of assumptions, considering how smart you constantly claim to be.

Big head. I said I have a big head. You got a problem with that?

No. You can have a big head, provided you have a) a smaller mouth, or b) a better filter. Or, I guess c) are okay with fewer friends. 
Being a jackass isn't all bad, but it will only get you so far. I'm speaking from personal experience. Take care.

Jason Bourne, btw, biggest 'alternate reality' out there, lol.
