this is another thread started by ieales from a previous thread where he is trying to prove that 14awg is more than enough for ANY home audio equipment. I'm not surprised that kosst has glammed onto this same mentality.
Yeah it was obvious from the OP alone that this is all about a guy with zero listening skills and even less understanding of audio, not to mention trying to snow people with tech talk as if nobody's gonna notice its all one big misunderstanding after another. I mean, headroom, when what he probably means is loss.
There's another thread where someone posted that all the old issues of Stereo Review are now on-line. Stereo Review, whose big tech writer Julian Hirsch held the same wire is wire views, is gone. Defunct. No more. While Stereophile, founded by J Gordon Holt on the basis of LISTENING as the final arbiter of audio quality, is still around and thriving.
There's a lesson there. For those open to learning.
