Depending on how you like too listen too your music and what you listen too rock soul or what ever and what format you listen too it on CD OR Cassette ,Stream. or record how do you like your treble or bass we are all very diffrent.
Never liked a lot of treble. Sometimes I turn the bass up a little, other times I hit source direct and cut out tone controls.Depending on how you like too listen too your music and what you listen too rock soul or what ever and what format you listen too it on CD OR Cassette ,Stream. or record how do you like your treble or bass we are all very diffrent.
Thats why i would never buy a Amp with out tone controls no Amp is perfect with diffrent types of music.Never liked a lot of treble. Sometimes I turn the bass up a little, other times I hit source direct and cut out tone controls.
Exactly! Got a bit of a tale in that regard. So today is the funeral of a friend's wife. I've been asked to provide something to play music on at the little get together at a local function hall, after the funeral. I was given a list of Sarah's favourite songs to put on CD. I have a bit of other people's discarded hi-fi so yesterday I took 20 mins out of work to set it all up. A Roksan Kandy KA1 mk3, I was given a few months ago, a pair of B&W Vision DS2, my first pair of speakers I bought when I got into hi-fi separates (that have been stored under my son's bed for the last 20 years) and a TEAC CDP 100. (Cheap as chips from Richer Sounds 25 years ago)Thats why i would never buy a Amp with out tone controls no Amp is perfect with diffrent types of music.
👍Like many modern integrated or active or powered speakers, I have no tone controls. However, a balanced sound, as flat as one can get across all frequencies, is preferred. But I am partial to a nice clean trebly sound, not so it's bright but a lovely open sound.
Agree, if you need treble or bass controls on an amp your source is the issue., That or your speakers or both.👍
Veiled HF is the worst crime a hifi can commit as far as I'm concerned.
I've had amps with and without tone and even (God forbid) loudness controls.
Apart from initial tests, never once used any tone control.

You can certainly manipulate a sound to a certain degree, and that's what I've always tried to do. Whether speakers or sources, but that said, there is always a limit to how far you can tweak an amp.Agree, if you need treble or bass controls on an amp your source is the issue., That or your speakers or both.
The only thing I require these days is a balance control.....
You've got tone manipulation without any need for controls 🤨I like a valve sound which thickens the bottom end enhances the middle and to some extent rolls the treble.
But don't use bass or treble control's
