DAK, you are on the right track. Commercial stuff is nutty expensive, and if it is making money, it is either even nuttier, or bean-countered.
It does not take a genius to do this; it is for the most part just solid engineering( like any other product ). I've played and A-B'd with some talented folks. That in and of itself is entertaining. Learned a bit from each of them.
As to the traditional insults leveled at this opinion, like 'you just can't tell the difference'...there is no argument to be won. That is why it is used so often...LOL I take its use as an admission of defeat.
That argument is widely used to part fools from their money with techno-babble in a well documented fashion you've no doubt read about and seen in action by salesmen of any sort. LOL...if you are good enough, you will be admitted to the club where you can spend even more money. No thanks.
cheers,
Douglas
Friend, I would not hurt thee for the world...but thou art standing where I am about to shoot.

Hi Doug, and thank you for commenting. I will not be baited into a blatant attempt at trying to stir up the pot of controversy over something as obvious as night and day. The doc (sic) should take some of his own medicine. With comments such as "trust your ears" and "have fun, i am". It seems that those terms should be amended with, which can not happen unless you are "experienced" which accordingly, can not be attained without listening to specifically recommended equipment.
I wonder why a person with such beliefs would be part of the DIY community? It is obviously a waste of time for someone with that "experience". sincerely, Dak
Yep...don't get baited. It took me a while to recognize that, 'you aren't good enough to hear the difference' argument as an admission of defeat...LOL
I love some of the Irony presented in the arguments. In one paragraph, they tout some EE PhD, and in the next claim all such knowledge is worthless.
And then there is the techno-babble...'transfer efficiency' indeed.
cheers,
Douglas
