Has anyone heard the new North American products preamp and amp?

I love to read these discussions though I'm not a genius or in anyway a scientist. I am however someone who has lived with live music all my life,in my home from childhood , and through becoming a musician and marrying and excellent pianist.  I have been in pursuit  as a New York newspaper series on the "audiophile search of the. Holy Grail"  included my comments many years ago with the great designers of those days. I have worked the shows, helping set up rooms to achieve  the best results in difficult situations, and been fortunate to walk through the designs of many of the best designers. I love music and have longed for the equipment to get out of its way.  The battles between tubes vs solid state . System  matching, wire choices always to accommodate the weaknesses of the equipment.  I remember when the absolute sound magazine gave Roger Paul a Golden ear award and one of the great reviewers made the comment that Roger was really headed in the right direction. Wish she could have been here to hear where that direction has lead.  I've watched the journey.  It's been rough due to many uncontrollable.  I am enjoying my system more than ever before.  My wife asked me to teach her to operate the system after 47 years of marriage.  Thank you Roger that though life has thrown you many difficult challenges you never gave up on a vision of bringing music into our homes.  I hope now we can get enough people to really listen to the amp and preamp and hear for themselves what I'm enjoying more and more each day and it's still breaking in.

Roger, good explanation. Thnx

gdhal,

what happens when the two speakers (assuming two channels) are not precisely (as in less than 1000th of an inch) aligned and distanced from the listeners ears? Is distortion re-introduced?

Actually -The only thing that will happen is it will project the performance but with the center stage slightly to the left or right depending on which speaker is slightly closer. It is a shift in your viewpoint. 

Roger

Thanks you for the response Roger. I suppose the center stage being off left-right does make sense. Given the level of information you have included in this thread, it probably would have been more efficient had you included all of this in your white paper. In any case, as I originally stated the technical content of this post is a bit "over-my-head". Perhaps that is my loss as I enjoy the hobby and love the music! Peace and best of luck gaining whatever traction you need/want to have your equipment/design principles be as ubiquitous as possible. 

Hi to All, I have ordered a H-cat Mark III amp and preamp an I am trilled to get to hear it in my system. Probably be a month before I have it all set up but I will let you know what it is like.
Since I know Norm and his system very well, If he is this excited about a product, I know that I want one.

Thanks Roger- for attempting to explain you concepts.
You explanations are thorough, interesting, informative and helpful. 
 I am sure you are aware that there are those who blog just to see them- selves online so no amount of wisdom expelled will stop the questions.
Those people waste my time often and work at being annoying.

The Mark III is new and different, even different from Roger's earlier work. The past is history and the Mark III is the new world.
Cheers D
