these funny mathematicians forgot that "%" means 1/100...I learned that in my 4th or 5th grade in primary school...

Hey, 0.0001% distortion is not good engineering precision, there must be at least fifteen zeros after the decimal point.
Let us engross ourselves in deep prayer for humanity: may the Lord liberate us from the evil tyranny of numbers. Amen.
The world would be a better place if engineers were prohibited by law from designing audio amplifiers.

although I may support your first ironic text line your following general conclusion is nonsense. Or are you sure that numbers in your checkbook are meaninglesss?

Can one of the flat earthers explain why a slight rise in distortion at the top end is some form of evil?
bucks bunny,
my sharp remonstrance is against analytical modeling, not the sensible mathematics, limited to the unfettered, unaxiomatized arithmetic counting, that is, counting discrete objects in everyday life. However, counting abstract electric charges using Ohm’s law presents a major challenge for acceptability, and you need to have a great deal of commitment to numbers and adherence to the principle to believe in the Cantorian transfinite cardinality of the infinite numerical discontinuum (counting the uncountable) or in the even more fuzzy Hilbert spaces (just to mention a few).
Bill,
your policy seems to be never making factual statements. Have you been pondering over the subject matter?
You owe me several upvotes, remember? Or should I go as far as to convert back to the true religion?

You should listening an amplifier with the distortion is almost equal in all audio frequency. If you do not like it or you can not hear the different, so it doesn't matter. You should use a good speaker.
After hearing such amplifier, the when I listen many sound system, I realize that I can hear distortion at high frequency faster than distortion of low frequency. I do not know why.
I will have to call my next dog Ma, so there will be at last one in this house.

If the open loop frequency response can be extended, then this whole phenomenon can be mitigated. It is caused by decreasing loop gain with frequency.
Look at the old NE5534. Its open loop -3 dB frequency is 10 kHz. This pretty much avoids the whole issue.
It is funny that you do not know the different about 2 names, Dadod and Edmond Stuart. 😀
You can ask Syn08, I think he built and measured Edmond Stuart's amplifier.
Now you needed to bring syn08 too into supporting your useless argument line...stop yourself before it is too late!
Your last 8 posts were just about nothing.
Yeah, cos sighted listening is so accurate. My question was a technical one not a golden ears one.
HD distortion at higher frequencies can produce IMD lower down. I couldn't find any measurements of IMD of Hugh's amps, just some HD ones that X made, how useful are they in reality? There was discussion about the "good distortion signature"
It is about perception. You can measure it (objective) and you can listening it (subjective). Why do you care about other perception? Will you make amplifier for sale?
