[QUOTE="RR, post: 17207"] It is important to know that circumstances can have an influence on how a product or system sound is perceived. That point I (we) acknowledge Byrd. I feel strongly however that this can not be elevated to the most important parameter in selection. Usually time is on one's side. As an example, when you are upgrading cables, CDP, infact anything, do take time to evaluate it. The reason for this is that usually, one already has a fine product,and upgrading to a potentially better one will not reveal massive differences immediately. Take a week or so, even the most emotional among us ;D will get a good 'average' impression of the product. There are exceptions. When you upgrade for instance a mini hifi's speakers to a set of quality units, the differences will be immediate. Same goes for other components, or like the cable test I did a while ago (My cables vs Anit Cable) where the differences are very wide indeed. In general however I think we have consensus on this (some sort of consensus) ;D [/QUOTE]
