Peter Aczel was a man of strong views but he had an enormous amount of experience in audio. He could be described as the James Randi (supernatural sceptic/ buster) of the audio world. His views were never refuted and its unlikely they ever will be.
>>>>Whoa! What?! You’re saying Peter Aczel was like James Randi? James Randi was a fraud. He was a Las Vegas showman and accomplished pseudo skeptic. And I only mean that in the nicest way. He also tried to con a few audiophiles when he ran out of spoon benders to go after. Actually that’s a pretty good analogy, now that I think about it.
