Can't comment on "popular opinion" beyond noticing that abc1 has just
started on Freeview. :-)

However I am personally quite happy to accept that some amplifiers can
make
audible differences in some circumstances.

I commend you to find a copy of Electronics World, August 2004 issue,
where the differences between regular Global NFB amplifiers and zero
Global NFB amplifiers is discussed. The article goes some way towards
uncovering what many listeners profess to hear.

If you are referring to the series of articles by Graham Maynard then I'd
recommend treating them with *great* caution.

I have been collecting them and trying to make sense of his claims and
"explanations". A lot of what he writes seems to me to be muddled,
ambiguous, and misleading. There are some useful points, but they are
buried in a lot of muddled arguments and misleading "explanations", I
think. Also quite a lot of what I might call "make mountains out of
molehills by describing well know effects out of context in a confused
manner". However I have been waiting until the full series is finished
before anaysing them in critical detail.

**I look forward to your analysis.
