Benchmark Media Systems. Right or wrong

From the company that puts measurements above all other factors.

And I’m sure their perfect specs have zero effect on user expectation having perfect sound reproduction.

Notice how the issue of psychoacoustic effect never applies to gear that measures “well”?

@deep_333 Really?

"I have several tube amps, old sugden, old Pass, a load of chifi amp kits, etc in storage that are not counted/considered here."

The problem with the Benchmark argument is the logical fallacy of faulty generalisation. Personally, I partly agree with the Benchmark post to wit, there are snake oil companies in the Hi-Fi business. I also agree that many audio cables are overpriced.  However, I do not agree with Benchmark's arch-objectivist attitude (one that's common among many people with their roots in pro audio) that a limited set of conventional measurements defines a component's performance when reproducing music.

seems yogiboy we need a debate on the meaning of a comma in a sentence...
