When I was switching the amps, I listened to the same CD. With the CAV-150, I was listening at 64 db. When I switched to the CAM-350, the music presented with a fuller body, and actually sounded louder at 54 db through the same CP-500 and Sony CD player. This impression has not changed now after nearly three weeks, and with any of the CD's I've listened to. It's also virtually the same with watching movies, cable or listening to the iPod. The sound is noticeably fuller bodied and more defined than before, particularly in the mids and highs. The only other change I made was to use twisted 10 guage wire with locking banana plugs, and replacing the middle level quality Transparent Cables.
Playing semantics and using complex nomenclature is also a means of tricking one's brain. I prefer to keep it simple, and simply stated . . . I hear what I hear. Maybe I've discovered a new science - the science of listening in the real world! :B
Oh, and I forgot to mention . . . why was the dealer not surprised by my impressions (he did not sell me the CAM-350's)? He responded like it was a natural phenomenon.
