Just now, anyone who might build "proper" amps has also a built-in pre-meditated agenda.  In other words, he is not only building amps but he is also - and primarily - trying to glorify himself - and his "main idea" - in the process.

The truth is, all the "skill" and/or all the money in the world won't get you Hi-Fi Squat without your OWN apriori sense of location as well as direction.

So, what every Moron^(R) wants to know from this, is there a way to do this quick and dirty, on the cheap?

I've said since I started with the ML2s that every "amp designer" should listen to these for a while before proceeding to build anything else; and not in order to clone or reverse-engineer them, but just to hear what they do so astoundingly right -  for a "FR" amp....

Speaking for myself, the ML2s have jumped my "amp awareness" ahead by a quantum leap.  I might have taken forever to get here "on my own".  However: If I say they do - eventually - wind up pointing down that Old Endless Highway of Better and Better, then the Morons^(R) will simply think they can just "skip that step", and they will continue searching based on the same mistaken notion that avoiding "problems" will eventually result in something wholly worthwhile.
 
Although I remain far too lazy and cheap to go custom DSET, it is easy enough to see and hear at  this point what "they" are talking about, as well as why they are talking that way.

The sad truth for most of us is that amps without speakers (and rooms...) are purely abstract notions.

The sad truth about  "custom amps" is that, without apriori direction, they are really not likely to be any better than any other random gambit.
