Mike, thank you for taking the time to respond, and for others keeping this civil.I was on a Facebook forum yesterday, and someone whose opinion I value, and is certainly accomplished in this field, said something that I have believed for a while,... 
Cryogenically treated cables
There have been papers, by real scientist (no for real), that have shown a several percent increase in conductivity in copper conductivity at room temperature after cryogenic treatment. What I don't remember (was a while ago), was what the initial... 
How much do you need to spend to get digital to rival analog?
Mike,The problem with many of these "high fidelity techies", is that they are long on notoriety, but often weak on being a real "techie". I don't know this person, so I hope that is not the case, but it seems to occur a lot in consumer audiophilia...

geoff,Is that a pain in the pocket book you are feeling? You worry about people in the AES ... but I donโ€™t think they worry too much about you, other than "I hope he is all right. Are you sure he doesn't need his medication?" 
Tidal Music
Yes you are quite correct. I had MQA on the brain! :-(

Ethan would be like kryptonite to you geoff, he knows almost everything about a subject to which you know almost nothing :-)ย  .... serious side: he can be dogmatic and jumps to conclusions without considering all variables, and will fight you, but...

I think the being honest with yourself part was missed. 
Network Switches
Of course he would not approve of the switch!!!ย ย  :-)But, after reading this thread and seeing that almost no one is denying there will be no degradation of the digital data, he would not argue that point. He would accept that analog noise injecte...
