The Audio Critic

If nothing else he opened my eyes to several truths, a coat hanger is just as good in delivering soon (properly shielded) as any $500 cable.  The electrons or wave energy do not differentiate.  Good connections only part to be concerned with.  Also its the speakers and recording quality that matter the most.

I have every copy of Audio Critic.  Peter was right on although I still like tube sound. Those comments with personal insults are from people who cannot win a rational argument and do the obvious-they respond with personal insults. "a quack!  a joke!"  Now that settles the issue!

I do lust over the beautifully designed expensive audio gear but will never buy it.  I do not understand reviewers who resort to the other senses when describing the sound they hear-how it tastes for instance.  Can a graph describe sound?  No but it will be useful for comparison between audio gear.  A-B testing is the only way to prove you can hear the difference.

The Audio Press review disputes the "every properly built amp" sounds the same or  that solid state can be made to sound the same as tubes. Nobody but nobody, however, will ever take the challenge and do the ABX testing to disprove his claims.  

If they measure the same they will sound the same-take the test to prove otherwise.
