I could not say if/how very high speaker efficiency and/or FR limiting might effect the issue of a sort of "shuffling" of pitch/tone/harmonics as SPL and complexity shoot up and down, ie, tonal integrity versus dynamics.  No amp in my experience has seriously rivaled the ML2 in this respect, and no other amp known to me holds its "harmonic center" along with the "surrounding territory" so tenaciously.  But you know the price for this...

Again, I always had the feeling that I was using the small DHTs wrongly - that there was more There there than I was getting with my own implementations.  OTOH, I never heard anyone else get it just right, either.  There must be a way to "hold the fort" without feedback.  Mustn't there?
