Over in the Monolith Balanced Headphone Amplifier and DAC with THX AAA Technology thread.
There is the start of a good discussion about some things, in this case the THX AAA amplifier being fatiguing to some vs other amps.
I am not debating that this is true or false, just wondering what this really means, and how does one measure or quantify this ?? Is this even possible or it this one of those subjective things we humans will never totally agree on?
To me when I listen many things influence my liestening experience, time of day, hungry or not, stress level, what my wife wants me to do that day, amount of beer consumed (and type!)…music, did i get a good nights sleep etc…so many variables.
So is it just the equipment and its “performance” or is it a specific thing with a specific piece of gear that makes something “fatiguing”?
Interesting to hear your thoughts and ideas…
