"As a psychologist by trade, I have no doubt the difference I'm "hearing" could be illusory. Never the less..."
Andrew,
Its just my opinion/advice, but don't doubt yourself. Currently, there are a lot of people getting into audio by way of computer. When they find websites like this and look at what were talking about and buying, quite often their shocked because they are seeing high end audio for the first time. Most people aren't even aware that audio like this even exist. As a result of this, many new people try to "talk sense" to audiophiles. (I should mention that I have no idea if Lupinthe3rd is one of these people. I'm just talking in general.). Thats why I say don't doubt yourself. Who better to judge your system than you?
