Does anyone out there NOT hear a difference in CD

I couldn't agree more regarding Tvad's view regarding hearing differences and system resolution. I guess I would simply add "neutrality" to resolution; knowing full well, of course, that one never really knows for sure *how* neutral one's system is, until an upgrade is made that reveals previous colorations. In my experience, however, it can take a while to feel confident the system is truly more neutral after such a change is made.

Shadorne - I'm simply speaking of using one's own long-term to make careful determinations over time. Of course one has to be meticulous about this sort of thing; and of course an "upgrade" can add coloration.

Mrtennis - I agree with you completely, including where you say "more" neutral is illogical. I imagine - and hope - that people understood the gist of what I was saying, despite my own imperfection : )
