After recently doing a level matched AB test between a number of my headphone amps with a switcher, I came to the realisation that they all sound exactly the same. However, before I had certain ideas of them sounding different which I was very sure about until then. Even then I used to level match all the same, but the amount of time it took to switch didn't seem to be fast enough for me to identify them as identical sounding. Once I could quick switch, certain factors I believed were different between amps such as soundstaging, tonality and dynamics seemed to disappear.
Something I'm not sure I've seen addressed here, is where exactly do theses ideas of the different sounds of different source gear come from? Where does the very idea that they sound different originate from?
