But against your contention is, and to take your example of the 78s,
what if that same advocate were to state that "ONLY" 78s were fit to
represent music, and all non-believers in 78s were apostates or worse.
And then further, state that only his interpretation of the sound of
78s had any validity.


Mr. Jute never said that SET amps are the only way to go, he himself
prefers a PP EL34 in triode amplifier, if I'm correctly informed.


Were that same person to do as you say, and state "I prefer 78s to all
other media because..... " and then state "But I am writing for myself
and would not presume to dictate to anyone else." I don't think that
anyone here (well, maybe excepting Bret) would have raised a peep.


If one adds the line "In my opinion", or "just speaking for myself" ,
one is almost certain to be attacked for saying that by Arny Krueger.


Oh well, damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Let the fools in this world argue and bitch each other to death, I'll
continue to listen to my music on various amps, both tube and MOSFET.
And, even better, I'll continue to build them myself.
