Yes, that's hard to figure. What speakers are you using?

ICEPower vs SET
Toufu -- I looked over the specs on the 200ASC's, and the Zu Druids. The one thing that strikes me as possibly being relevant is that the ICEPower modules have about a 0.5db frequency response dip in the upper treble when working into high impedance loads (the graph in the data sheet shows frequency response into 4 ohms, 8 ohms, and an open circuit; I'm interpolating between the 8 ohm and open circuit curves for your 12 ohm speakers). That is a fairly small dip, of course, but it might explain some of the reduction in harshness. Beyond that, all I can envision is synergistic happenstance, as others have suggested. Regards, -- Al |
