Re: So how about....

I am going to disagree with you on this one. The audio field needs two different terms to describe on the one hand devices which directly, positively, effect the music signal and on the other, those which can only have a negative effect.

Traditionally, devices positively effecting the music signal have been considered a "component." Accessories being all else. Power cords, cables and rooms can only have a negative effect on the signal. Improvement only comes from reducing the deleterious effects of the wire, the room.

Insisting that accessories be called components is unnecessary. Unnecessary unless you are an accessory manufacturer seeking to elevate the importance of your product. They have been mighty successful in that regard. They seem to have convinced you ;)
