In the Thread: The ultimate buffer #2...?

.... of “the buffer transparent” and it does not look as transparent at all. The buffer adds some very minor dynamic compression, very-very minor transient’s corruption, some overlaying sense of grayness and generally if has more fatter sound then a “just wire”. It feels like someone injected smog into music. The smog is very minor and it does not affect sound itself but rather inform me that some alien form took peace in sound. I was wondering how MUCH was placebo in what I feel but regardless of the placebo, so far, I do detect some quite audible lack of transparency with this buffer. Perhaps something should be tweaked in implementation. Perhaps the topology might be different… I do not know… Generally what the buffer does is not different then any other preamp that I’ve heard; in fact, it is much better then most preamps out there. Still it is not absolutely transparent buffer yet….
