Differences in Amp Sound: How Do We Find the Truth?

audioXpress readers are well familiarized with Richard Honeycutt's Hollow State column. In many of his articles, Honeycutt explored distortion in a quest to find the origin of “tube sound.” In this article, he takes a more general view of possible amplifier differences, solid- or hollow-state, focusing on different amplifiers’s differences in sounds, and a correct subjective evaluation process of components and systems.
