True. Thankfully, a lot of the customers want to maximize the RE's talents and allow him to do a lot of the setup. Especially when, as in a couple of cases involving RE friends, the customer and the RE are one and the same company.

I forwarded your previous post to a couple of RE's I know, both personally and from their work. Both advised me not to argue with a nitwit and that the computer has an "off" button I should get to know. I usually listen to them, at least eventually. Sorry, but you do not know what you're talking about in this case. The experts in the field of sound and music recording have spoken. I can't argue with you anymore because it's as if you're arguing against 2+2 equaling 4.

  They get pissy when people put false words into their mouths, just as they get pissy when I or anyone else tries to tell them their business. They don't seem to mind telling ME how to play the guitar, though! LOL!

I must congratulate you for an original reply. Do you think the audiophiles will believe it?

  Thanks, but I can't take credit for it, as I was paraphrasing - but I'd say it was very close to direct quotes. I'll be happy to let the originators of the comments know, on your behalf.

  Well, any that are RE's probably will. As for the others, there's no reason for them to believe what I post anymore than there's a reason for them to believe what you post. The only thing I really recommend to people regarding audio is to think for themselves, and try things out for themselves. There's enough misinformation on both the subjectivist and objectivist sides that taking anyone's word for anything is risky, especially around here.
