Yes, you are right about the horse**** and many
magazines are full of it.
I've NEVER heard a difference between any cd player or
dvd player. I have 3 different receivers that all sound
exactly the same, no difference whatsoever and I
believe the same goes for ALL other amps that are
built without serious design flaws



Absolutely - *blameless audio*!!

A 'done deal' for a couple of decades now and perfectly
OK if you are only interested in reproducing a signal
with the lowest distortion/colouration possible and we
can all do that, but it's a different story if you want
your kit to *make music* - then you got to get into the
murky world of valves (IMO) and no two amps will really
sound the same!!

Depends on how you define "make music". Since I listen
to a lot of live music with no interveneing electronics
at all, I find the sort processed sound that "they all
sound different" tube amps offer to be a little lacking.
Maybe OK as MI amps, but they have no place in a modern
system designed for the best possible reproduction.

No argument from me - you reproduce sound, I'll play
music....

That's not what I said Keith, but thanks for showing us that you've
avoided those much-needed improvements in your reading comprehension.

It get worse when you venture further into vinyl - when
the cart will also have a profound effect on the sound,
as will the phono stage (to a lesser extent)....

That's one reason why "It all sounds different" bigots
love vinyl. It really does all sound different unless
you pay a lot of attention to detail, and then a lot of
it still does sound different. Vinyl suffers from
comparison with modern systems, because all accurate
systems sound the same, and as a rule vinyl-based
systems don't.

Yep - they sound *better*....

Whatever that means to a person as shallow as you are, Keith.


Shallow....???

(Bit rich, coming from *you* ain't it...???)
