@newbee Yep, I don't doubt the resistance, or that you are correct in your assessment of what people want to be told to know or accept.
On my assessment of equipment in the OP, you are correct in that my experience with them (EAD or Dynaudio) is not definitive. Outside of a dealer or corporate employee, whose really is? Yet, my experience is reasonably well exposed over a period of 20 years. No telling who knows more than another on any particular one subject, or specific area of a subject. That's why we all come here...to share what we've learned, and to learn from what others share. I'm pretty comfortable with what I know or don't know, and try not to be pretentious, though I don't think any of us are perfect about that no matter how hard we try. I've been an enthusiast or audiophile since the age of 12, and been reading stereo mags and auditioning hi end stereo since that age (1978). My oldest brother came home from the Navy with a pair of ESS AMT 1Ds, and a Panasanic Quadraphonic Receiver. For fun he used to take me auditioning new equipment every few months, and every few years he upgraded something. By the time I could drive I was going to audition audio equipment by myself for fun. Hi end shops were in local towns all over the place back then. Within a bicycle ride of me were 3, where I could and did critically listen to, and discuss with management, B&W, Kefs, Polk SDS (the rage back then), DBX Soundfields, Infinities (when they really were something special), etc. It spoiled me, developed my ear, and I've been wired to love music & explore audio equipment ever since. We've all got a story...that one's mine.
