Moscode 401HR's Sonic Character

"Actually I find the 10,000 products in their Class A list quite useful.

:-)))))"

which of course would be even more useful if they had a colorful picture.

"I know six people who have auditioned the amp in their homes, and every one has purchased it."
Tvad:
Make that seven. I purchased mine without the the trial period.

Thanks. Ditto on the $teropile, although the list does have its uses.

Yes, no SS-anything is an SE. I'm just asking about the overall musicality; as in, how involving. Dynamic contrasts are great, etc. but what about liquidity? Or, dimensionality? Not just how far back it goes, but how it goes; as in, the space between the players. Is it a void, or is there compression of air on the dynamics? Stuff like that.

Mostly, did you stay up late and forget what time it was? Do you get pulled in?

Thanks again.

Asa, with all respect, because everyone has a different definition of the qualities you mention, your questions can only be answered by listening to the amps under consideration.

Tvad, point taken...although I don't think "quality" is that relativistic, it only appears as such if you've never seen "it." (BTW, I think you have...) Is it hard to describe? Sure, for everyone; that is the limitaion of language. But, less so for those that have gone looking for it. If it was ineffable per se, then you and I would have stood mute, and if I'm not mistaken, we haven't...

Yes, I will listen to see for myself, but with no dealers - 30 day deal back, or not - it makes sense to ask, doesn't it?

If I hear passion in the responses and a mention of liquidity or harmonic complexity, as opposed to objective-focused language, doesn't that tell me something?

Actually, when I saw you response, tvad, I was hoping to hear what you thought, because of what you said of the NOS input rolling. I was hoping to hear if there was any "passion."

Asa, I will not fall into the trap of trying to describe in a discussion forum what entails passion in me when it comes to audio. We of Anglo/Saxon and Scottish ancestry display little passion for anything. A little smile...a toe tapping...this is a standing ovation from my people. :)

As I have mentioned elsewhere, six people I know have auditioned the Moscode 401HR in their homes and all have purchased the amplifier. I prefer to let these numbers speak for themselves.
