RE: N core

I'm not so sure in this case. I've been puzzled by the same phenomenon in my AHB2. It's the cleanest amp I've ever heard, precisely as one would expect given its vanishingly low distortion and in particular its feedforward compensation for crossover distortion. But I have the impression that the transient reproduction doesn't isn't right. I have no idea why from a technical perspective -- I can think of many possibilities, given the design -- but the transients seem rounded off, and that sucks the life out of the music. I don't think we're talking the absence of distortion here.
