General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Agreed, listening is the final arbiter, but ...

... that doesn't mean we can disregard measurements. I am a circuit designer by profession (not audio) and I know when I've done my job because I hit the specs. I suspect the professional audio world is similar but, obviously, not the audiophile world. I find extreme subjectivist and extreme objectivist arguments equally annoying, which is why I liked Nelson Pass's well-balanced approach.

I remember reading that tube article when it came out, nice to see it again. One passage may me smile "Another general tendency has been for tubed amplifiers (of both guitar and high-end types) to be designed and built by technically unqualified people"
