All Amps Sound the Same....

A guy posted this on another forum:

"This is my other expensive hobby and while I agree with you about low end receivers, once you get to mid-priced (~$600-1000 street price) multichannel receivers you're into pretty good gear...Keep in mind that an amplifier sounds like an amplifier and changing brands should add or subtract nothing to/from the sound and that going up the food chain just adds power output or snob appeal to a separate amplifier...These days most audiophiles either use a good quality multichannel receiver alone or use a mid-priced multichannel receiver to drive their amps even for 2-channel."

Wow, where do they come up with this? Lack of experience?

Perhaps the well tempered clavier stimulates the left side of your brain, without necessarily introducing any conscious perception of an "emotional" response?

A perfect cappucino in your favorite cafe might evoke an emotional response, but caffeine by itself is only a stimulant?

What other composers or music, please, would you recommend to enhance concentration and/or to prove that all amps do not sound the same.
