I did NOT write that article on the ESP site in order to praise ABX
testing,
but rather to BURY it !!

But what you SAID was:

"Many of you will know about the ABX system for doing audio
comparisons. No doubt it is a very fine piece of design but out of
reach for the average person. Some years ago I felt that a much
simpler device would at least allow me to do comparisons on power
amplifiers while the music played in a similar way to ABX."

You praise ABX but find it too expensive to set up. Your use of "at
least" states that you see your method as a cut-price alternative
which is however adequate for some purposes.

Though I really don't know why I bother when you children start
bickering :-)
