If the rest of the book is written as clearly as the first chapter this book will be valuable to serious audiophiles who are willing to consider some alternatives to the "conventional wisdom". But as Geddes points out, audiophiles' beliefs are formed in much the same way as religious beliefs, and most of us are not open to ideas that contradict what our "faith" tells us to believe. The mainstream audio community (manufacturers, dealers, magazine editors, reviewers, etc.) will ignore it like they do most other non mainstream ideas and products. If forced to acknowledge the book's existence they will attempt to discredit its content, because it's impossible to get someone to accept a new idea when accepting it will cost them money, power or prestige.
