RE: The would according the engineer Nelson Pass

"Remember, the great NP also has amplifier designs that use electrolytic caps in the signal path. Now tweaker, you gonna go replace all your signal caps with leccys because your hero does?

imho it's a mistake to fetishize engineers. Better to fetishize engineeering itself, but that requires real effort.."

As Ryelands pointed out I brought in NP to lend some cred and so some little dweeb wouldn't call me a fucking poser for the 10th time. Don't know why NP would use electrolytics but it is likely to be a bad idea. Agreed. Nothing to do with the bigger is better thing though. Why the toxic one would think NP is my hero or I fetishize him is a complete mystery. I never owned any of his stuff. I have a tube amp. T456
