Wilson, you're quite mad. If I wrote according to your demands, every
sentence would be two thousand words long and require 200 footnotes
(another 10K words between them!) to cover all eventualities, and then
you would pick nits out of what is left of your hair about the order of
the footnotes.

Since you're so convinced NFB is the Second Coming, you're welcome to
write a full commentary on my piece and send it to me to publish on my
netsite. We can do with a comedy section. You should be aware though
that a couple of appearances in the comedy section of my netsite (once
for his ignorance on power supplies (1), once for the same matter of
distortion distribution that so upsets you (2)) cost Mike LeFevre
two-thirds of his existing business and closed out several avenues to
fame and riches just then opening up to him. Several years later he
still hasn't recovered. I'm sure you've wept for him...

I don't imagine that, dragging around an attitude like yours, you do
much business, but still, if it is your living perhaps you should not
sign your business-name to these tirades that do nothing more than make
you look ineffably stupid and offensive.

explaining how the facts straight out of the RDH can be a lie

**Cite your alleged "incontrovertible facts". I'll wait. I have copy of
RDH4. Just give me the page and chapter reference numbers.


-- a set of my opinions on matters of taste, without explaining how a
cultural taste can be a lie

**I have not argued with your opinions. Just your lies.


-- and so on into astounding subdivisions of irrationality and
stupidity

**Really? How about discussing your lies then? Let's see if you can manage
it, without profanity and insults. Just calmly and rationally discuss my
points, one by one. I bet you can't.


Let's take just one example of what Wilson declares a lie.

**No, let's discuss the entirety of my post.

I wrote:

"Let me say that again: after NFB, third and higher harmonics will make
up a
greater part of the distortion than before."

According to Wilson that is "a lie". Really?

**An half truth. You leave out the obvious fact that IF odd order distortion
is reduced to inaudibility (which it is in all competently designed amps),
then it is irrelevant what part of the distortion is even or odd. I said I
was addressing your lies and half truths.

It is in fact a fact
(heh-heh) agreed between all informed parties that the NFB, while
reducing the *total* amount of distortion, by its very nature alters
the frequency distribution of the remaining distortion so that the odd
and higher harmonics make up a greater proportion of the recombinant
residual. That is several times spelt out in my original article which
causes Wilson to foam at the mouth. So tell us, Trevor-baby, how is my
statement lie?

**It is a half truth.


I can't resist. Here's another statement (a rhetorical question,
actually) this blockhead Wilson singles out as "a lie":

"And they still use Negative Feedback?"

Uh, duh, Trevor-baby, are you now claiming that the entire audio world
has stopped using NFB? Amazing.

**Nope. It is a half truth. EVERYONE uses NFB. Every single amplifier
designer. Even you. By not spelling what type of NFB you are telling half
truths.


Below my signature I reprint Wilson's entire hysterical (and
hysterically funny) letter in full for connoisseurs of audio
fruitcakery.

What a blockhead.

**I note that you still cannot answer my questions. Not bad for a
"blockhead" huh? If you are so smart, then prove it, by demonstrating that
each and every one of my points is incorrect.

I'll wait.
