What about the pastor?

That's right! And don't you forget it! That'll be 'Mr.' Csontos for you from now on.Btw, that sure didn't take you long. Is there anything else you do during the day? Just curious. 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
Well both of us can't be right, right? So you may as well be wrong! WRONG I SAY!! WROOONG! I'm right... yep, right. But you... you're wrong, again. 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
I think you're arguing with yourself. Carry on. 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
Yours is also your subjective view. I'm well aware there's more than one kind of fatigue and the one in question is the painful kind. I would say pain is the most relevant. 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
I'm not interested in arguing with anybody. But just for argument's sake, how does it not make sense to you that a flat FR will be less fatiguing? The op's confirmation that the high frequencies are not the problem are a testament to this premise.... 
Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?
Thank you Al, but look who my tech is talking to. I need simple. All my amps are in that optimal range you suggest but I can attest to your suspicion that low noise floor plays a key role in realistic sound stage and what sets amps apart from one ... 
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
The flatter the frequency response, the less fatiguing the amp will be. It's just that simple. Whatever other attributes/detriments it has will be irrelevant. Just because you spent huge money on somebody's 'recipe' doesn't necessarily make it soa... 
Anything as " fast" as SPECTRAL gear?
Al, can you please clarify where in the frequency spectrum slew rate vs rise time is relevant? My understanding is that for the most part sonically, slew rate correlates to bass performance and rise time to treble. This is what I've been told by t... 
Should I repair my amp?
Lots of well qualified techs out there. It's not quite rocket science. 
Hard Wireing?
DON'T DO IT!!! 
Terminological Exactitude....
Sure. I just meant for the sake of discussion. It would be refreshing to experience consensus. 
Terminological Exactitude....
I mean in terms of interpretation of said definitions. You knew that, right? 
the greatest pop song ever?
Oh, you must be referring to that recognizably huge flat spot in her voice. Yea, wow. Great tune though. 
Terminological Exactitude....
I remember on a related thread not too long ago a link for a list of standard definitions was given presumably in an attempt to put everyone on the same page only to conclude our personal interpretations pretty well defeat the purpose. But what if...
