    Okay, some thoughts:

    A and D sound almost identical to me. This tells me these must be pure DAW and API reamp. If I had to guess, A seems a touch clearer in the highs, so my bet is D would be the API one.
    C seems to have less <50Hz, so I say this would be the capacitor coupled one, and we're left with B being transformer coupled.

    The differences are so minuscule they might as well not exist, nobody is going to pick that up unless they're specifically trying to guess.

    Edit: also for reference, I was using my Shure SE215 IEMs for the listening

    Interesting answer


    Can you answer like this :

    A = number
    B = - - -
    C = - --
    D = - - -

    I did not do so because that dude @KungPaoFist loves to steal my knowledge. I needed to prevent that. When you say it is the time to finish this thread, I will give you password. And dont forget about our bet.

    That is why you are going to post a .Rar with password containing your answers. That way you cant change it when I give you mine. Remember, I am Russian. We are the smarter people in the universe.:guru:

    Here is the BEST ANSWER but remember I only need to get 2 rights to have you lose. Moreover, if I get 2 rights @KungPaoFist needs to have all 4 correct to beat me but that is not happening. I am the only one that has A=3 and B=1 This victory will go further than beating both of you. It will show that what the majority of people hear as "the digital clean audio from the DAW" (most said that A=1) actually is the beauty of analog summing with the transformers. In other words, all of those that think that it does not make a difference are wrong. Problem is that they have not spent time with with one. Spending time watching YouTube tutorials is not going to help. Also, this proves several other things. Most importantly that, I have the best ears, the best monitors, the best, DAC, the best ADC, the most experience in this forum. Simply put, I am the best that ever was, and the rest are nothing but a bunch of amateurs-mickey mouse-wannabes mixing with $5 earbuds, and monitors with yellow cones because they look cool. I am the one and only, I am @The Pirate. That is why everyone loves me long time.

    A=3 Summing mixer w transformers
    B=1 DAW summing
    C=4 Summing mixer w capacitor
    D=2 Digital summing

    So my answer was that B and D sounded about the same (and cruddy), A and C sounded louder and *maybe* a but fuller and if I had to pick the one I liked best it was C. So if you're right, there you go. But I think the difference I heard was primarily volume. We'll see.
