Is there any way to judge the amount of negative feedback that is used based on any particular measurement?

Digital source: Roon Nucleus+ file server; Ayre Acoustics C-5xeMP universal player; MBL N31 CD player/DAC; Ayre Acoustics QA-9 A/D converter.
Power amplifiers: Parasound Halo JC 1+ monoblocks.
Loudspeakers: Golden Ear BRX, KEF LS50.
Cables: Digital: AudioQuest Vodka (Ethernet), AudioQuest Coffee (USB), DH Labs (1m, AES/EBU). Interconnect: AudioQuest Wild Blue (balanced). Speaker: AudioQuest Robin Hood. AC: AudioQuest Dragon Source & High Current, manufacturers' own.
Accessories: Sanus 29" loudspeaker stands; Ayre Acoustics Myrtle Blocks; ASC Tube Traps, RPG Abffusor panels; AudioQuest Niagara 5000 Low-Z Power/Noise-Dissipation System and AudioQuest Niagara 1000 Low-Z Power/Noise-Dissipation System (source components). AC power comes from two dedicated 20A circuits, each just 6' from breaker box.

Each JC1+ has 198,000uF of OUTPUT capacitance. The 44,800uF is the INPUT power supply capacitance. Lets get our facts strait.
Hi
Sorry, what do you mean by "OUTPUT capacitance" ????

Hi
Please get your "facts strait" when you said "198,000uF of OUTPUT capacitance.
You asked what you meant by it. You ignore my question ! You know or don't know the right answer at all ?

Do you not understand filter capacitance in power supplies? Why do you keep asking the same idiotic question over and over?
Have another....I am done here.
Hi
YOU were 100% drunk when you quoted above stupid statement. YOU need a coffee to wake you up.
If YOU were not drunk, your would have stated: "198,000uF FILTER capacitance used in amp's output power section." You expect every consumer readers here knows your drunken use of English ????
I started desigh/builing solidstate power amps some 4 decades back.
FYI, If you knew enough filter capacitors, you should know huge huge huge capacitance is only part of the filter design for better SOUND !
Do you know the AC internal design of a capacitor ??
That was enjoyably well-written and I thought it was one of the better ones from the most recent Stereophile.
