Audio as a weapon
Experiment for yourself(though these use high freq & square wave sweeps) : https://www.amazing1.com/ultrasonics.html  You may recognize the same Motorola piezo, that was used in the Dahlquist DQ-10, in some of those devices.     
Interconnects and non-believers
"Guys, if you don’t hear a difference... just don’t spend your $$, and let everyone else make their own decisions. You don’t need to make your opinion into a crusade" That statement makes SO MUCH sense! So too, do scientific facts, such as the die...

Term for an LP that is about the quality you'd expect to pull out of a dollar bin?
Skeet!

@prof - Had you bothered to read the follow-up post(then again, perhaps you did and it didn’t register), those words were a verbatim quote, from a very well regarded physicist, Nobel laureate and lecturer’s book. That’s why I postscripted the stat... 
Which material sounds better for speakers construction? Wood, Ply or MDF?

"Heavy on the 30 Weight"? 
Hafler DH 500
Does that occur with all sources, or just one? How frequent are these malfunctions? Can you hear the relay clicking, with no input to the amp(ie: preamp turned off or disconnected)?
