Negative Feedback a deal killer?

"Or should one just listen and shut up"

Wisdom defined.

If we all followed that advice, there would be no forums on Audiogon. If only the wise did, they could only learn from the unwise :)

It would have to depend on how much positive feedback the amp has received, wouldn't it? (Sorry -- a little Audiogon sales joke there.)

I have two sets of amps that use zero feed back (Atmasphere, Electra Print), one amp that uses minimal feedback (VAC), and another amp that uses moderate feedback (Music Reference). I use and love the sound of all of them in my system.

I suppose we might also clarify whether the discussion is about global feedback, local feedback, or both. While we're on the topic, when a company markets their product as a zero feedback design what are they really referring to? It's been my understanding that this generally refers to global feedback only. I had an interesting conversation with Roger Modjeski on this once. It's a topic you don't want to get him started on unless you have the time and knowledge to keep up with him.

It might be for me. Nfb seems to suck the life out of music.

Feed forward a deal reviver?
