| To my ears:
Sample 'a' sounds rolls off pretty aggressively in the top end and loses any semblance of fidelity once the bass kicks in. It distorts the midrange in the presence of the bass.
Sample 'b' has better high-end and seems to maintain some detail in the midrange even once the bass is there. It sounds generally 'smoother' to me.
I guess 'b' is the modded transformer. I like it better, one way or another.
edit: read the rest of the thread. Fooled me too!
