[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 145726, member: 126"] Re: Damping Factor - Actual listening tests? Not sure what you are even saying... ---Some of the lower DF had the "tighter" sound. ---The amps that had the tightest sound also had the highest damping factor Or what "tight" sound is. This is a very old subject IMO made moot wrt amp design decades ago by modern solid state amps. Silly high published amp DF specs are a stupidity tax on users that don't understand the need to add wire resistance to any real world DF calculation. Jason is asking about wire related DF effects not amp DF. I already suggested a way for him to listen to just the wiring caused error using cans. JR [/QUOTE]
