I’ve also been told many times that true Audiophiles don’t use Tone Controls at all and prefer the Music flat without any EQ.

I like that I have the luxury of playing with the Tone Controls on my Yamaha Amp and for times I don’t want to use them I use the pure direct mode that bypasses the tone controls.

Now here’s my dilemma. I’m looking to buy my second amp and I just can’t think of anything else except Yamaha. Or even when I do find something that has a good spec sheet I cancel it out as soon as I release they don’t have tone controls.

Is this Blasphemy in the Audiophile world? Am I chasing the wrong thing’s looking for that perfect sound setup?

Any kind response will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    To me, a flat signal is unbearable. Sound like the speakers are inside of a wet paper bag. A good boost in bass and some treble boost always makes speakers sound better, I will die on that hill.

    You buy an amp for your use to do as you wish.
