one of the problems with this thread is the indefinite nayure of "large" and small changes in one's audio system.
two listeners may disagree as to whether the affect of a change is large or small.
without a more descriptive grounding of the aforementioned terms, makes this discussion moot.
what is a small step-- the change of one component ?
could one argue that a change of an interconnect is a small step ?
there is too much ambiguity here.
perhaps there is a genre of changes that would be considered small, while others, say a speaker would be considered large.
i have heard a significant change from moving one speaker one half an inch. is that a small step ??
