Yes, some of the people who "know the most", and can contribute so much indispensable information - up to a point -  can be simultaneously so generally confused that it's literally wearying.  Imagine gazing into a magic mirror, where everything is so CLEAR for a while, and then... confusion, and finally madness.

But I would say there is a fairly easy "tell":

Simply put, the 2A3 should not add dirt, in and of itself.  Even the (older) Sovteks (that nobody seems to like anymore) clearly revealed all differences in driver qualities, and the overall sound benefitted mightily from using better drivers.

I am saying that if you are getting dirt (compared to the single stage), then it's getting there from someplace other than the 2A3, itself.

Best regards,
