Re: What engineering is and isn't

I have nothing against your process, I which things could work this way…

“If the levels of distortion needed to be inaudible are unknown, the engineer approaches a scientist who makes a study to determine what they are. “

Why couldn’t the engineer do that, or don’t you trust your own ability to do that. And who would pay for this since most of those who have the means to do this kind of study in the audio industry are in it to earn money.

“All of these scientific studies need to be published in professional journals documenting every step and conclusion so that they can be judged independently by professional peers, not in consumer magazines where they are bandied about by amateur hobbyists…. Until that is done, all of the talk is just a bunch of unproven theories…. Anything less, even by well thought of, well reputed, and financially successful people is just tinkering and they are not engineers, they are dilletentes”

Exactly how many papers have you published in this way?
Regarding audio amplifier design?
If none then you too are a dilettante…
Or someone who just repeats what he has read or heard without thinking for him self.
