My brother has the opinion that a amplifier's function is to amplify, to color sound (bass boost, tube-like sound), drive headphones, bring out more details out of headphones and to filter the sound for more clarity.
However i'm of opinion that a good amplifier does not color the sound (AT ALL) and that it cannot(should not) filter any sound. A good amplifier amplifies the sound as naturally as possible without coloring the sound (input == output but amplified)
It cannot make the sound any better then the input source is (thus if detail is missing in the input you won't get it in the output). And for coloring of sound you should use a equalizer (software or hardware)
what's your opinion on this.
