By the way, the research paper you linked shows nothing. It is not even about .1 versus .00001 distortion static numbers.....which is what Objectivists worship. It is about adding distortion and clipping on purpose to see how it affects sound. Come on....you can do better than that.....well, actually not, because there are NO tests about different levels of static measured distortion and sound quality. If there were, then you guys would be quoted it all the time.
This part of your post is just petty, angry, disrespectful, and inaccurate.
