Here's another pyrotechnic from Ambrose Bierce aka "The Old Gringo" in the film

Rene Descarte is quoted as saying 'Cogito, ergo cogito sum.'

That is said to mean, 'I think, therefore I think that I am.'

One of my favourite American cynics and humorists, Ambrose Bierce, would rather we agreed on the following as as close we can get to certainty / cpotl's pot of gold aka 'objective truth.'

'Cogito cogito, ergo cogito sum'

'I think that I think, therefore I think that I am.'

You will notice that it's the first bit that's different and pointed.

Mind you I'm not at all sure about low DCR supplies myself, and not even about SE being THE path. I think capacitors, and R's, and how we use NFB or not, and quiet loudspeakers, ..., all make a difference to the music, but not $$$$$$ worth, or worth $$$$$$.

I do prefer acoustic music - live, simple recordings of for home listening and as much bandwidth as possible.

The recordings are not getting better, which is a much bigger issue. Elephant in the room sized IMO.
