In the past I might have taken the time to read it, but I don't have any inclination at present...

That said, my previous post did not add to the discussion - it would have been better not to post.

Edit: I started to scan the review before work, but ran out of time working through the lead-in advertorial content. Some interesting aspects, but again, I am not really into that type of product.

Edit 2: I have scanned the "review" part of the, er, review and can only say "typical Jeff Day". Did I miss the part where comparatively listened to both the Spec Audio amp and a quality SET amp before writing his comparison of the two? Or did he just listen comparatively to IDH pentode amps? He certainly makes some bold claims for the Spec Audio amp vis-a-vis DHT amps, but seems to avoid specifics... Bold claims based of vague generalities. Then there are the curious assumptions regarding SET amps and subsequent reasoning, perhaps based on the types of SET amps he has been exposed to? As an ex-researcher, putting on my peer-reviewer hat, it would seem to be a desired outcome in search of justification... or bias... whether he realises it or not. Nuff said.

Cheers.
