In Reply to: My 3 years to the goal of the non-compromise SET and still learning.. posted by aknaydenov on September 13, 2015 at 12:53:04:

if wood, the grain direction is very important. I found that it sounds more natural if the grain is perpendicular to the listener....
directionality goes even to resistors ... they just sound better in one way and worse in the other..."
Sorry, but comments like these are clearly the result of an overactive imagination.
