**Utterly and completely untrue. THD figures (comprehensives ones, which include the spectrum of distortion components) can tell us a great deal about an audio product. That said, it is also true that beyond certain limits, further reductions in THD may not be useful for humans. Such reductions may cause other problems, which can introduce other artefacts which humans can respond negatively to.Make no mistake: An amplifier which exhibits (say) 10% THD _IS_ introducing it's own signature into a system and is not acceptable for a high fidelity reproduction system. An amplifier which exhibits less than (say) 0.1% THD is not likely to be so compromised. An amplifier which exhibits less than (say) 0.001% THD is unlikely to be differentiated from the 0.1% example.
