Another “interesting” thing...
Any amplifier that I know is absolutely disabled to let me as a listener to extract from music something without unavoidable loosing a perspective to the whole musical peace. The Melquiades swallows this task with such a fantastic ease that it really too good to be true. You remember that feeling when you see your friend 500 feet away and there are 2000 people taking and screaming between you and your friend? You look at your friend while s/he is taking with somebody and although any rules of physics indicate that you even theoretically can’t hear what they are talking but you without any affords can recognize their voices? It mean you conscious filters out all none-relevant noise and interferences and brings your hearing directly to what you wish to hear. How the hell the Melquiades does THAT? Why this amp presents the fabric of sound in live-like browseble-random ways but any other amp just throw an “as is” fixed snapshot of sonic reality?
For the people who do not know me personally I might appear that I artificially glorify the performance of Melquiades. I would like believe that I do not, at least I work quite hard with myself in order do not do it. You see, I am very demanding, very critical and very fast on negative judgment listener. It takes a LOT to please me with the audio results and this very seldom happened – the general level of audio is juts too drastically below my reference points. It all sound like a heavy attitude and heavy self-promoting narcissism, and it is probably what it is. However, that also is based on the actual facts. If you close your eyes in my comment of this paragraph to all that my emerge to you as “Romy’s The Cat self-declaration of his worth” then whatever data that will be left will be the actual very objective representation of what actually Melquiades does. In addition pay attention that that when I began this paragraph I said “for the people who do not know me personally”. For those who actually are welcomed in my room and heard (will hear) Melquiades my comment will not sound like a Cats’ puffing herself up.
Do you remember that during “live” musk (if you keep your eyes opened) you pick a minute detail of body language of a player/s and then associate it with a specific Musical phrase, most likely the phrase that instrument was playing? Those moments never distract listening attention, frequency quite apposite –n they work beneficially. Nevertheless they very rarely get transferred into permanent associative memory. Contrary to this if you see the same event on TV and listen music as a recording then the “body language event” most likely will be permanently fixed within your listening association. Deriving from this, the “vulnerability of distractions” with amplified music is way higher then with live music. The inner-relations between the none-auditable sensations while a person hears amplified music are completely distinctive then with a live auditioning. With the Melquiades, the conflict between the primary and secondary in musicality, between the presentation and the language of presentation are completely unlike to reprobation media - it juts do not sound like an amplified music.
The Melquiades sound very much like a hologram when by masking out the large part of the hologram you still in each fraction of the hologram have the data about the whole picture. Interesting that with Melquiades you have no disturbance when you look at the whole picture “as is” or if you look at the whole picture only via a10% of the hologram entire size.
That all build up absolutely innovative, totally new and unseen before level of Realism of reproduction. One again it has absolutely no relation to the come o audiophile idiocy “I am always was there” or “They almost were here”. What I’m describing is completely different presentation and it rather feels like Realty Reinstating Process then amplification.

I think I should begin to sell tickets to the audio Morons letting them to audition Melquiades. I might call it “Audio Freak Show” and charge .29c per a heard note. I have to calculate how much I can make by spinning day at night that Patricia Barber disk. Perhaps I can spin it twice faster to make more money – the audiofools will not note a speed difference anywahy…

About the Melquiades sound to be continue…
