" basic physics or true science" - do not solely dictate the sound of a component. Sure they are required for a desired function, however it is their ability to be pared with other components to produce ones' preferred sound. For example, let's compare 2 amps with the same specs or very close. Logic says they will sound the same, but do they? Maybe one has better quality parts, uses a different grounding system, better damped enclosure, better wire, better tubes, etc. Now, to some they might sound the same, to others, not so much.
Why are the ones that hear the differences dissed for that?
Is it because they are not part of the "good enough for me crowd"?
