Describe your preference in a single sentence


Although I don't have enough exposure or experience like some of the more seasoned audiophiles on this site, nonetheless I have gone through 10-12 integrated amps (tubes and SS) in the last 5 years. There are a few sound quality attributes that I have come to realize that I prioritize over everything else. But if I have to describe it in a single sentence, it will be "thou shall never ever sound lean!"

And it's precisely for this reason I keep going back to tubes. 

Let's share your top priorities in a single sentence :)

I’m not in the stratospheric budget on price by any means but to get texture and warmth on some tracks seems really hard to do while still having the blazing speed and impact other tracks would require to be “perfect”. I think dsp will get more and more transparent accepted and easy to use. 
 

 

Fast, warm, sumptuous, impactful, detailed, easy highs that are still detailed as all get out. Really hard to get everything I want and maybe not even possible. Also want my old rock cds to sound like a million bucks! That’s not gonna happen without some Vegas! Lol
