They should give you some things to think about. There is alot more to this than initially meets the eye, which is why more people don't get this. Instead, it is called "euphonic distortion" by those who don't understand that "systems interaction and distortion" is equally (or more) important than individual component distortion specifications that were taken on a bench with dummy loads . No component operates alone in the audio system. It is the cumulative real-world result that is important. It is in this regard that SET architecture shines, especially when combined with Single-driver loudspeaker systems. However, it is very important that very high-quality output transformers are used in SET amps, since the output trannies are typically the limiting factor in the amp's performance, especially at lower price points.
