[QUOTE="Ampdog, post: 852417, member: 144"] Nirvana! Thanks! Despite expecting what was to come, I read the lot - and was pleasantly surprised by the unexpected 'caveat' added by the writer: "One audiophile's impressions on his unique systems with his personal preferences." Many similar tests have been done in the past, and I am sure many more will be seen in future. Patient comments on listening tests are as plentiful, always carrying the same message, and sadly too often followed by dissention of the vitriolic and sarcastic kind, degrading well-known principles to 'opinions' (and I expect to soon see more of the same here!) I have done with these. It will be insulting to people's ability to read to repeat yet again. Mercifully in a few of these tests, the auditioned valves have been measured, always revealing deviation from bogey values to an extent which might have been responsible for audible differences. But there: Temptation is a vile thing. After having undertaken not to repeat, I am doing it yet again! [/QUOTE]
