AJinFLA,You have a lot of nerve coming off like I am trying to convert you into purchasing an SET amp or anything else you don't choose to use! You ask Why not just be happy? Why the overwhelming desire to spread "the truth" to the non-believers? You remind me of a child who provokes a dog and when they get bit proclaims I was "only" petting him!
The reality of the situation in case you missed it, is I believe wires influence the sound of an audio system. I prefer tubes to solidstate and I believe "some" of the tweaks being sold work. I also don't personally care if you want to use pro-audio QSC amps, or HK solidstate amps on your DIY speakers. Why should I, I don't have to listen to it, THANK GOD!
So for you question "Why not just be happy?" How can I be happy about a man who responds to my statement of: I can detect when interconnects or speakerwire is changed in my system, with comments about my amp having "euphonic coloration of tubes" or implying my statement is like going see the image of the virgin mary on the side of that building, or I staying up late for Santa, rather than just addressing the comment I made! I find your behavior to be quite offensive, insulting & provoking in nature.
You deliberately provoke me and then when I offer you to come and witness my actually detecting the when interconnects or speakerwire is changed in my system which you feel is akin to see the Virgin Mary or Santa, you decline, go back to your insults & ask me "Why the overwhelming desire to spread "the truth" to the non-believers?" Why? because of your insulting, provokative statements! That's precisely why I offered to demonstrate to YOU my ability to hear what I say I hear.
Yet even after asking me Why not just be happy? You yet again provoke me by stating "BTW, on the odd chance that you hear a real, not imagined difference, replace or repair that faulty cable or component".
So again I say AJinFLA YOU ARE A COWARD, who doesn't want to know the truth. So you can come up with all the fake excuses you want, "euphonic coloration of tubes" I need to replace or repair a faulty cable or component, Mark Levenson amps are defective etc. In the end your just a scared, closed-mined man who's lost all credability in my eyes and I'm sure in many others eyes as well!
The real sad part is you're the only one who suffers for these actions for those ORIONS could sound so much better, with better amps and wires. But you could always borrow Soundminds BSR equalizer and IIRC HK Citation 11 preamp. Then you'd really have an Lunatic Fringe Objectivist dream system!
FYI I haven't ordered the Threaded Mega Feet for the Pioneer yet, because the Pioneer, like your QSC & HK amp, isn't of sufficient quality to merit such an upgrade!
Finally "IF" you really want me to be happy stop acting like a child by insulting me and my equipment (which you've never heard so you have no idea what level of "euphonic coloration of tubes" it does or doesn't have) and actually address the comments I make like an adult would. No one says you have to agree with them, but at least let them be what you comment on. Not all this other crap and then wonder why I respond like I do to you!
The threshold for proving something is higher than the threshold for denying it, which is a recipe for the accumulation of AJinFLA's Lunatic Fringe Objectivist bullshit! -- TS
