Actually

John Curl's test of the ic's had some validity. It is the interpretation of the results that is in conflict.

John pointed out differences between cables as they were tested on a specific machine....his

The AP sports much better specifications than JC's rig, and therein lies the distinction. Having been designed to more rigorous specs, issues which affect JC were eliminated via engineering in the AP rig, whereas John attempted to better his old rig without baselining it.

I certainly can believe John found repeatable differences, but Bruno's results prove that it is a cable/rig interaction, not some nefarious diode/zero-crossing distortion.

THAT needs to be researched, as it is that interaction that is far worse in the home environment.

A shame it was not continued, as it is a good avenue of research.

Cheers, John
