Quite interesting reading.  One thing that was only slightly hinted at (only scanned through the thread so if I missed it I'm sure someone will point it out  ;) ) is that people do hear differently from each other.  And by that I mean physically hear differently in the same way not everyone sees...

+1 on clean and solid sound.  Got mine for about 12 years and still have not found need to change.

"Of course, you're not going to listen to it in the same way that you listened to Steve Millers 'Fly Like an Eagle' in 1976. Back then, listening to an album was a job in itself whereas this e-music is acoustic wallpaper, something you have on while you do do something else."  J.Clarkson...
