Why do you think I disagree with anything that Dan has said?Let's review your rigorous criteria for state of the art musical reproduction:
"To date, my experience, the experience of those I know and the experience and actions of audio professionals indicates that properly designed modern amplifiers operating well away from clipping and driving a benign load are not audibly distinguishable."
That criteria can be met for a song. Do you really think that other than musician and engineer, Dan is a crook who wanted to fleece the public with a product that cost then times that of other amps with no inherent value?
Personally, I am far more interested in your reasoning.
I'll let Dan speak for his own design.
Why do you think this choice of amplifiers aligns you with Dan's views?
Because of the dozens of designers who listen to their products and realize that such a simplistic view of amplifier performance as yours is insufficient. If low end junk could sound as good as better designs, people would buy it. If a car manufacturer could duplicate the performance of a Z06 Corvette for $6000, they would sell quite a few.
