————-AMRG vs. AMRT —————————————-
The sound difference between AMRG and AMRT resistors is not very significant, as they are both carbon film resistors made by the same company. However, some users may notice some subtle differences in sound characteristics and preferences.
According to some online reviews and discussions, AMRG resistors tend to sound more detailed, transparent and airy, but also more analytical and less warm than AMRT resistors. This may be due to the aluminium casing that provides better shielding and thermal conductivity, but also adds some sonic signature to the resistor. Some users prefer the AMRG resistors for their clarity and precision, especially in high-end audio equipment.
On the other hand, AMRT resistors tend to sound more natural, smooth and dynamic, but also less refined and more noisy than AMRG resistors. This may be due to the lack of aluminium casing that makes them more simple and compact, but also more prone to interference and heat. Some users prefer the AMRT resistors for their musicality and richness, especially in vintage or tube audio equipment.
Of course, these differences are not absolute and may vary depending on the circuit design, the resistor value and power rating, the source material, the listening environment and the personal taste of the listener. The best way to find out which resistor sounds better for you is to try them yourself in your own system
