Excellent article in Stereophile


This is one of the most interesting articles I've read on harmonic distortion and its affect on sound quality and why the classic THD is a worthless specification.

Not being an electronics engineer I often have no idea what he is talking about. He is not very good at describing things to lay people.
I would never pay for his time. Judging by the way he keeps his bench he spends most of it looking for things. 
I stopped reading specs around 1969 or so after I built a Dyna Stereo 120. An upgrade from the stereo 70? Lesson learned. I have always gravitated towards class A amps since I owned a pair of Krell KMA 100's
I have no idea if it is because of what he is talking about. But, on this one I will agree with millercarbon. The only devices you should trust are your own ears.
