The truth is the truth. It is what you experience on Mushrooms.....of course.....he he. I did do mushrooms years ago (51 years ago).
The TRUTH is what you experience......not what you think. The only way to know something is to experience it. You cannot know anything truthful about fuses unless you listen to them. You cannot know much about what is true in life unless you let yourself expand and get out of your comfort zone and try some new FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLINGS. We are feeling beings....we love, we enjoy, we scream, we cry, we are alive....in our feelings. OUR mind is a trap.....it mostly serves the ego. Our feelings show us the way to our heart....to our self...to the NOW....to the infinity of feelings that we are. The knowledge of which fuse sounds best is nice....but the feeling the best one brings to us when we listen is the real TRUTH. There is wisdom. Love and Power. Wisdom is knowledge in service to Love.....ie....you know what to do to make more love........Power is Love in action....the more you DO love in action the more you and others feel love........LOVE is the TRUTH. It is what we are.
Is it the truth to keep saying the Colosseum amp is a $50K amp and therefore not that good of value....when it is a discontinued amp that sells for $27K new and can be bought for that same price used? At every level there is truth. The truth about how the 118 sounds versus the Gryphon will not be known till you A/B the two and tell us what you hear....that is truth. All the stuff that people make up (Viber loves to make up stuff....he he) is not the truth. The truth in audio is what you hear. You can interpolate.....we all do that. But the sound of the 114 may be very, very different than the 118, for instance. So, if we just say what we know......then we keep to truth. If we interpolate or guess....then it should clearly be stated as a guess. If more clear listening tests are done then less guessing will be done. When I read reviews......I am reading them for the bottom line....ie...how does it sound...and versus what? This is why listening to a Merrill system versus a DAG system or whatever means so little to me....and to many others. i want to know what each component is like and how it compares to other components. Maybe some will just buy a pair of whatever from one manufacturer.......but mostly because we don’t have any real info about what is out there. This is why you can really serve us by giving us real info (your listened TRUTH) about how these things sound versus each other. Then we truly know something.
I am currently doing audio evaluations on my system.....which is a highly modded Oppo 105 as a transport....a modified SMSL 500 DAC (you would be shocked if you heard how good this modified $400 DAC is) driving directly my modified VTV Purifi amp that I am finishing as a product. You can see info on my website about the mod....quite incredible really. I am listening to modified hardwired (at both ends) Sennheiser 600 headphones with 3 feet of custom wire hardwired......pretty transparent sound. When I listen to speakers....it is a pair of speakers I made that use a B&G Neo 10 and Neo 3 planar combo on an open baffle and below that two 6 inch woofs in a box.....all hardwired, super xover parts....time aligned....felted front baffles, isolated xover parts, ground enhancers, PCOCC litz wire. Speaker wire is 14 gauge PCOCC litz wire on mids and highs and Furutech wire on the woofs....no wires ever touching the floor. I use a low distortion sine wave inverter on the front end and right now the amp goes into the wall (the amp wire is hardwired into the wall...yes, sir)......no fuses, anywhere......except when I sell the modded amp.....then there is a $20 audiophile fuse standard with options for the big boy fuses.
