The audiophile who wrote that seems pretty wise.
These days the only thing that sets any of these electronics apart is the EQ. Beyond that, guys are just chasing the numbers game to see which electronics have the highest inaudible SNR, Crosstalk, and lowest inaudible THD.
I believe the
100WPC Benchmark amp has the highest inaudible SNR. I might even care a little bit if it were a 200WPC amp.
