[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 107467, member: 30"] Re: Behringer iNUKE NU6000 amplifier we had a local store that used to "prove" that brand x was quieter than brand z. They would open up the gains and all the channel and master faders and sure enough Brand x produced less noise. HOWEVER brand Z had more overall gain-but they did not try (or even understand) that matching overall gains was somehow "important". I also know a store that years ago would "prove" that one 500 watt amp was "louder" than a different brand 500 watt amp. They would run the same signal into both amps and sure enough one was louder. So that was their "proof". And sadly many people believed that. NEVER MIND the GAIN of the amp-we don't need to be bothered with little things like that-ya know engineering stuff. Because all you had to do was LISTEN. Yeah right-------------------------- [/QUOTE]
