Illuminati (3rd Degree)

I meant that SETs as a design have higher percentage of even order distortion in the THD, as an inherent design than PPs.
A higher even order distortion causes a tone to sound "fatter" or "richer". This is commonly used terminology by mnay guitar players. It is also found at teh rec.audio FAQ, which is referenced below.
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/AudioFAQ/part2/

A fat tone is pleasant. I think you yourself said that in the post above.

I agree with you...gross and misleading generalizations are gross.... I am sorry you think that describing a design characteristic is a generalization.

I don't want to get into a feedback debate since I am not an electrical engineer and not really interested in debating anyone on this forum. However, if you are really interested, I can point you to some refereed articles in JAES on the subject.
