The problem is 0.06% THD is already too small to "hear" so you won't hear any difference between that and 0.00014%. Some fine tube amps are closer to 1% THD. There's WAY too much focus on THD, especially expressed as a %. Now, if those numbers referred to 3rd order harmonic distortion, not total, and 3rd order distortion is all there was, there MIGHT be a chance to hear the difference. But even that seems unlikely to me. Of course, I haven't heard such a thing so I'm only surmising.I knew my Yamaha had 0.06% THD. A 0.00014% THD amplifier shoud be several times better than a 0.06% THD one, not marginaly better, isn't it?
The problem is 0.06% THD
The problem is really that single number THD is not much more useful than useless.
You have to step back one step and loook at the spectrum. The details that get lost when this is collapased also loses all the important stuff.
