On his concerts he sets up what he describes as 'a ball park sound' that fits all. Those were his words when the two of us were discussing his KCP amplifier that I also bought. He couldn't understand everyone trying to emulate his recorded sound as he said the studio added quite a bit in the recording and mix-down and admitted that he rarely bothered to even try because of the complications involved, repeating that he opted for his 'ball park sound'. That's it.
