Most "audiophile" terminology is
meaningless nonsense. Whaddya' mean the sound is fluffy?
There is nose, distortion, and frequency response, and once in you're in the room there can be reverb and other acoustic effects. The room has a big effect on bass. See
Audiophoolery.
With modern solid state amplifiers, all three of these specs/characteristics are usually better than human hearing unless you over-drive the amplifier into clipping (distortion) and in some cases you may hear background noise, especially if you are close to your speakers or if you have extra-efficient/sensitive speakers (or an unusually noisy amplifier).
If you turn it up and you hear distortion you are clipping and you need more power and maybe speakers that can handle more power, or more efficient speakers.
Overall very nice sound but a little big lacking compared to NAD. After room correction it got a bit better and there was a bit more depth to the sound. I especially noticed that the bass is more detailed compared to NAD and less booming. My room is not optimal. I honestly think I am going to buy this amplifier.
The sound seemed a bit more clear and more air. I am no audiophile so I don't know the correct terms. Overall very nice sound but a little big lacking compared to NAD.
