Regarding sully's remark that amplifiers have NO TONE IS absurd. Ever have a tube amp? A much different tone than a solid state one....although problematic [and expensive] when it comes time to change the tubes.
Even different tubes have different tones.
But keeping in the solid state realm, it seems all but impossible to me that someone couldn't hear the difference between an Onkyo receiver and a Marantz (as just one example).
