Yes I have followed your essays in V.T.V and quite agree with your point of view( although I must admitt it seems a stretch to compare bad cartoons to SE amps, but who knows?). Here's the rub. It's my belief there is a reference standard, not in the sense of equipment lists or comparisons to live music but in the sense of the emotional response to music. We all have been to bad sounding concerts and heard bad sounding home systems, every aspect of reproduction fluctuates. However; when it's right everyone knows it. When the sound at a concert jells with the music or when the sound of a home system locks in there is no denying that even innocent bystanders can tell there is something special happening. Thats the quest and my point was that we in this country seem not to understand that this is the reason to pursue the hobby, not to fulfill mythical criteria or exacting tech graphs. Those are tools. Thanks for your comments; they are always thought provoking.
