surface mount VS real components

SMD's have fewer

inside. Components which are Real have more and bigger Monkeys inside doing the work! I've done some serious thinking and this is definitely why SMD's have such a Thin sound, which I have heard from my one shitty Console which sounds Thin and so I think has SM not-real components.

These are the Facts.

My Console has fewer Monkeys and Monkeys are very important towards a Thick sound, which means a good sound.

From my experiende Twelve Monkeys is a must! Is a must see.... that is.

When Cole arrives in 1996, he meets Jeffrey Goines (Brad Pitt), the unstable son of a renowned scientist...

Walters! see the movie! You'll love it. You'll feel 'home' watching it

conventional components can use higher voltage to get more headroom than
SM components can only use small voltages so less headroom

Higher voltage gives more headroom?? COOL!!
Know I know what that voltge adjust setting on my Tascam is for. I'll just crank it from 110v to 220v and DOUBLE my headroom!!!

So Walters, as I understand the conversation here in your thread, there were twelve monkees..not just four. And the reason their recorded songs never really sounded very good is because they had no headroom and probably weren't using real fat resistors in critical places. Also, conventional component folks are probably boring but those who engage in s&m tend to have lots of headroom, fat wires and lower impedance. And it's a good idea to apply the highest voltage you can get your hands on to any piece of audio equipment. Such as running the line-outs of your console into an ac wall outlet. Why is this?

The question is: why Walters worries so much about headroom?
For Walters' head there's no such thing as 'too small room'
