RE: Nicely put!...

I think you're right. And personally, I've pretty much bypassed the issue because there are so many things I can do/spend time and money on that I know will make a big difference! Or rather I try to use what I know because I've measured it or it was obviously audible, or because there are solid engineering reasons to make a decision. I just try to be practical. For example, I think shielded power cords are a no-brainer, but I think it's much more important to run a heavy gauge cable for the circuit that powers a power amplifier than it is to use a fat power cord, because that's where most of the voltage drop occurs. It's a good example of a case in which a small investment, a circuit with 10 gauge wire, is more likely to yield an audible improvement than a larger one, an esoteric power cord.
