RE: Herb Reichert: Our Man At Stereophile

I have to admit that in the past I've avoided using the phrase "absolute sound" as it caused me to picture someone listening to some shoebox sized monkey coffins, driven by an S.S. amp with enough negative feedback to choke a horse, while thinking " I'm listening to the Absolute Sound of a symphony orchestra!" because of what they read in Stereophile/TAS, but I have to admit that after reading your heartfelt essay that I may have to re-think this prejudice of mine. I'm still having problems though with the misuse of the word "accurate" and it's frequent mal-appropriation by what's left of the audiophile press though. Ditto for the also frequently misapplied "neutral".

Geez, what a story you've told!

BTW With a magnetic monster like the Lowther driver, there's basically no choice but to horn load it, be it front, back or double loaded, and all iterations are fair game.
