Final (?) review

PPS

As a professional audio-researcher I have found that some combinations of components and/or materials make better music than other combinations. However, in isolation one of the components or materials may be indistinguishable audibly to another similar component or material - like the speaker cable David mentions?

In fact speaker cables are probably the worst items to hear any change between because loudspeakers have (de facto) the worst distortion of all in an audio system swamping any small difference.

Try listening to the results using headphones instead of loudspeakers.

But will the slightest positive difference be of any use? I believe it can be, if put to work with other items that also give the slightest positive difference. And it may be possible that the net result is better even into loudspeakers.

I think the opposite approach is a flawed one. It is an approach similar to that of the modern witches (drug and food processing companies). I'm more of an holistic persuasion which has ensured the very survival of our kind over many thousands of years. These easily dismissed positive differences have in fact been the foundations of our business which has survived and grown just making phono stages and headphone amplifiers these last 9 years.

It reminds me of a story about a couple walking along a quiet stretch of beach. They encountered several thousand starfish that had been washed up by a freak wave. The starfish were dying in the heat. They noticed a man picking up starfish one at a time and throwing them back in the sea. They questioned the man saying "it won't make a difference". The man replied as he picked up yet another starfish and throwing it into the sea "it made a difference to that one", and continuing in his quest said "and that one, and that one..."

Substitute the madness of refinement or lies even, for real science within an holistic approach and you get the world we live in today - a world full of riches but a very empty world at the same time. By chucking out the least we chuck out the most.

For those who treat hi-fi as a religion they may also find Matthew 25:31-40 of interest.
