This is thread is a fun read.
donavabdear- Even with experienced ears which you have, it's hopeless debating "audiophiles." Everyone's an "expert" even without recording studio experience.

The only thing I see missing is a proper rekkid player machine.
I've heard BHK based setups sound pretty convincing.
