Remember "common sense?" That is being able to put the MOST important things first, then look for more details, if necessary.
The LARGEST variable in ANY system is going to be the main USER of the system. His/Her own ability to HEAR, understand, judge, feel and decide the REST of the variables is key.
Since MOST "audiophiles" are self absorbed, this is lost on them. The fact that they are the direct observer, judge, and usually client (the one who pays for it all) makes this a very enjoyable group to fool, befuddle and con with continuing lies and distortions of things which are payed for in the four digit upward range. Most people can't hear worth a damn.
